Applications

Ideal for bulk cloud storage, distributed file systems, replicated environments, cost-efficient RAID architectures, and content delivery networks (CDNs).

Product Benefits

Cost effective enterprise-class

storage

Get the right blend of performance,

reliability and capacity and optimize

your total cost of ownership.

24x7x365 reliability

Choose the storage foundation

specifically designed for large-scale

datacenter replication environments

running 24x7x365.

High capacity for hyperscale

environments

Build a massive data footprint with

capacities up to 6 TB - 216 TB per

square foot.

Designed for quality and reliability

Datacenter drives undergo at

least 5 million hours of functional

testing, and over 20 million hours of

comprehensive interoperability testing

in an extensive array of server and

storage systems.

Please see the

product AVL list on our website for

more information.

Dynamic fly height technology

Each read-write head’s fly height is

adjusted in real time for optimum

reliability.

Vibration Protection

Enhanced RAFF

™

technology

includes sophisticated electronics

to monitor the drive and correct

both linear and rotational vibration in

real time. The result is a significant

performance improvement in high

vibration environments over desktop

drives.

Dual actuator technology (2 TB

and above)

A head positioning system with two

actuators that improves positional

accuracy over the data track(s). The

primary actuator provides coarse

displacement using conventional

electromagnetic actuator principles.

The secondary actuator uses

piezoelectric motion to fine tune the

head positioning to a higher degree

of accuracy.

StableTrac

™

The motor shaft is secured at both

ends to reduce system-induced

vibration and stabilize platters for

accurate tracking during read and

write operations. (2 TB and above)

Multi-axis shock sensor

Automatically detects the subtlest

shock events and compensates to

protect the data.

RAID-specific, time-limited error

recovery (TLER)

Reduces drive fallout caused by the

extended hard drive error-recovery

processes common to desktop

drives.

NoTouch

™

ramp load technology

The recording head never touches

the disk media ensuring significantly

less wear to the recording head

and media as well as better drive

protection in transit.

Thermal extended burn-in test

Each drive is put through extended

burn-in testing with thermal cycling to

ensure reliable operation.

Advanced Format (AF)

Technology adopted by WD and

other drive manufacturers as one of

multiple ways to continue growing

hard drive capacities. AF is a more

efficient media format that enables

increased areal densities.

The WD Advantage

WD puts our datacenter products through extensive Functional Integrity Testing (F.I.T.) prior to any product launch. This testing ensures our products consistently

meet the high quality and reliability standards of the WD brand. Following a FIT test the Enterprise System Group (ESG) testing validates interoperability with HBAs,

operating systems and drivers to ensure an even greater level of quality, reliability and peace of mind.

WD also has a detailed Knowledge Base with helpful articles and software utilities. Our customer support lines have long operational hours to ensure you get the

help you need when you need it. Our toll-free customer support lines are here to help or you can access our WD Support site for additional details.
