Renewed WD Ultrastar DC HC550 18TB 3.5 SATA Hard Drive
The Ultrastar DC HC550, a new class of hard disk drives (HDDs), integrates a suite of cutting-edge technologies on a 9-disk platform. By harnessing the synergistic benefits of these advancements, the Ultrastar DC HC550 achieves an impressive 18TB capacity.
At the heart of this innovative HDD is the Energy-Assisted Magnetic Recording (EAMR) technology, a pioneering development in the industry. EAMR improves the writability of the magnetic media, enabling higher areal densities and greater storage capacities.
Complementing the EAMR technology is the industry's first Triple Stage Actuator (TSA) design. The TSA enhances the accuracy of the head positioning, delivering superior performance and further increasing the areal density.
Underpinning the Ultrastar DC HC550's high-capacity capabilities is Western Digital's HelioSeal technology. This proprietary solution provides the foundation for the company's high-capacity hard drives, ensuring reliable and efficient operation.
To optimize the drive's performance and data management, the Ultrastar DC HC550 boasts a generous 512MB cache buffer. This feature significantly improves the drive's response time and enhances overall data handling capabilities.
The Ultrastar DC HC550 is designed to excel in Network-Attached Storage (NAS) or Direct-Attached Storage (DAS) / JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks) systems that offer unlimited drive bays. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that demand high-capacity storage, such as media production, video surveillance, and large-scale data archiving.
The integration of these advanced technologies on the Ultrastar DC HC550 platform represents a significant step forward in the evolution of high-capacity HDDs. By leveraging the synergistic benefits of EAMR, TSA, HelioSeal, and a large cache buffer, the Ultrastar DC HC550 delivers unparalleled storage capacity, performance, and efficiency – making it a compelling choice for a wide range of data-intensive applications.
