Description

The Western Digital 8TB 7.2K 12G 3.5INCH SAS hard drive is an enterprise-level internal unit, designed for servers, storage arrays, and data center environments. It offers 8TB capacity, 7,200 RPM rotational speed, and a 12Gb/s SAS interface with dual connectivity for high availability and reliable deployment in RAID and SAN systems.

This drive belongs to the Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC320 family and is suitable for nearline 24x7 workloads. Typical specifications include:

  • 256MB cache
  • CMR recording technology
  • Helium-filled construction
  • Advanced vibration resistance
  • Energy-efficient operation

It is a 3.5-inch form factor hard drive, intended for professional storage applications that require durability, performance, and reliability.

Ultrastar DC HC320 Enterprise Performance

The Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC320 (MPN: W127114331) is an enterprise-class solution designed for the most demanding data center environments. With a capacity of 8TB and a rotational speed of 7,200 RPM, it offers the ideal combination of capacity and speed for nearline storage applications.

12Gb/s SAS Dual Port Interface

The SAS 12Gb/s interface provides high bandwidth and supports dual-port connectivity. This ensures high availability and reliable deployment in RAID and SAN systems, allowing the system to maintain data access even in the event of a connection path failure.

CMR Technology and Helium Construction

The drive uses CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording) technology for stable write performance without the delays of SMR drives. The Helium-filled construction reduces internal friction and power consumption, allowing cooler and quieter operation in multi-drive setups.

Designed for 24/7 Workloads

With 256MB cache and advanced shock resistance, this 3.5-inch HDD is designed for 24/7 operation. Its durability and energy efficiency make it the most reliable choice for professional storage applications that require maximum lifespan and performance.
