Relentless growth of data means organizations must find ways to efficiently store more data. That’s where higher areal density comes into play, with its ability to boost capacities while not increasing the storage footprint. The Ultrastar DC HC580 24TB HDD with OptiNAND technology is the next step in data density, allowing data centers to maximize their storage, especially in footprint- and power-constrained environments.
The 24TB drive combines several innovative technologies including energy-assist magnetic recording (EAMR), HelioSeal, triple-stage actuator (TSA) that improves TPI capability with greater control over the actuator arm, improved OptiNAND Technology and ArmorCache. This innovation is incorporated into a 10-disk CMR drive, delivering the performance, quality, and reliability that data center customers require.
