The most powerful drives for massive tasks

Data is everywhere. Ever-growing stream of information naturally produces demand for more storage from wider range of services and applications. Thankfully, Western Digital lets you overcome the data explosion with help from Ultrastar DC HC500 series HDDs (DC HC510 HC520 HC530). Taking advantage of the only in industry, fifth generation HelioSeal technology - a key factor in dramatically expanding the boundaries of capacity, reliability and efficiency. Designed with both private and public enviroments in mind, where maintaining a value-effective infrastructure is imperative and directly translates into overall operating costs for our cloud and enterprise-based clients.

Fifth generation of helium technology

Data centers are facing mounting pressure from industry in the form of modern storage challenges - the amount of data keeps growing, operating costs are rising, budgets, however, often remain flat.

Designated for heavy workload tasks and based on technology of conventional magnetic recording (CMR) which ensures ease of use within both enterprise and cloud services. Additional functionality, the likes of TDMR (two-dimensional magnetic recording) and advanced mikrokator work together to increase precision, data integrity and overall reliability of the drive. SATA 6 Gb/s and SAS 12Gb/s interfaces to choose from allow for simple integration wth high-end data center. Trust Ultrastar DC HC500 series to deliver bigger storage, better performance and more value to your databases.

Data integrity and security

Privacy of drive contents extends beyond single terabytes. Object-based storage system with erasure coding provide better data security than RAID systems, given their tolerance for simultaneous errors. Ultrastar DC HC500 with it's massive storage and unbeatable MTBF rating are perfectly suited for object storage. Increased demand on compatibility and privacy require adequate protection of data, hence 500 series drives - including TCG SAS models - are equipped with security and encryption optios that will help keep their contents from unauthorised access..
