Ultrastar DC HC310 - 4 TB

Hard drives with medium capacity

The Ultrastar DC HC300 series delivers cost-effective hard drives with low to medium capacity, ensuring fast and reliable data access for conventional applications in data centers.

Cost considerations and quick access to data are the main criteria for selecting HDDs for data centers. IT managers must create storage tiers as part of specialized solutions for on-premises, off-premises, and cloud storage. Helium-filled hard drives offer the highest storage capacities, while air-filled storage media provide other equally significant advantages. With lower acquisition costs, the ability to utilize models that have been on the market longer, and higher access density, they are the ideal choice to achieve the desired performance level while adhering to budget constraints. The Ultrastar DC HC300 series meets today’s data center requirements with storage capacities ranging from 4 to 10 TB and higher performance than previous generations. The drives in this product line are suitable for various applications, such as traditional storage arrays, rack-mounted storage enclosures, server-based distributed storage systems, distributed and scalable computing infrastructures, as well as block and file storage architectures. They are offered with 7,200 RPM and SATA (6 Gbit/s) or SAS (12 Gbit/s) interfaces, along with Advanced Format 4Kn and 512e. The 4 TB models also come in a 512n version to support older systems with a native block size of 512 bytes.

Technological innovation enhances the efficiency and performance of older conventional systems. The Ultrastar DC HC300 series is based on a proven and cost-effective 3.5-inch model platform with air filling.
