Western Digital WUH721816ALE6L4 3.5" 16TB SATA 6Gb/s7.2K RPM 512M 0F38462 512e/4Kn HDD($754.45Value)

Description

16TB capacity in a standard 3.5-inch form factor CMR technology works with all capacity enterprise applications & environments The first HDD in the industry to harness Energy-Assisted Magnetic Recording (EAMR) technology improves writability and therefore increases areal density. HelioSeal technology is the foundation for Western Digital’s high capacity HDDs and this is the 6th generation of HelioSeal product With its massive capacity and 2.5M MTBF (projected) reliability rating, the Ultrastar DC HC550 is ideal for object storage implementations. Object storage systems with erasure coding provide better data durability compared to RAID systems, given their tolerance for simultaneous error conditions. 2.5M hours (projected) MTBF rating & 5-year limited warranty Data center decisions are driven by TCO. Higher capacity hard drives play a leading role in reducing TCO. An 16TB data center internal hard drive provides 29% more capacity in the same form factor as a 14TB HDD. Higher capacity HDDs enable data centers to lower CapEx by reducing supporting hardware and system level costs when compared to lower capacity drives. Helium-sealed, low power, high reliability drives reduce energy and maintenance costs, contributing to OpEx savings.
