WD 0F48154 - Ultrastar 22 TB HDD, 3.5 Zoll, SATA

Data growth with a smaller footprint

The explosive growth in data due to AI/ML, 5G networks, IoT, connected vehicles, and more is causing data centres to expand. Innovations in hard drives make it possible to capture, store, analyze, and protect much of this data. Higher capacity hard drives offer greater data density, enabling expanded and more efficient data centres.

22 TB for data centre expansion

The Ultrastar DC HC570 22TB data centre hard drive with OptiNAND™ technology represents the next breakthrough in data density. This 22 TB data centre drive enables an incredible 22.44 PB of raw storage in a typical rack. This higher volume density helps data centres maximize their storage space, especially in space and power-constrained environments.

The Ultrastar DC HC570 combines several industry-leading technologies in a 10-carrier CMR drive, delivering the performance, quality, and reliability that data centre customers demand.

Low power consumption for lower operating costs

Ultrastar drives are designed for optimal performance across a wide range of workloads. The DC HC570 is characterized by low power consumption for sequential read/write workloads and various random read/write workloads.

Benefits of OptiNAND technology

The Ultrastar DC HC570 is the second generation platform with OptiNAND technology, which combines an iNAND® Universal Flash Storage (UFS) Embedded Flash Drive (EFD) with the proven spinning storage media.
