8 TB SATA drive for servers

The HGST HUH728080ALN600 is an 8 TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive that spins at 7200 RPM and connects over a SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface. It is supplied as a bare drive and is built for continuous operation in server and storage arrays.

Suited for bulk server storage.

This drive fits administrators who need high-capacity, 7.2K RPM storage in standard 3.5-inch bays. It is not for laptops, small-form-factor enclosures, or any system that only accepts 2.5-inch drives. Buyers who require solid-state speed or silent operation should consider a different technology.

SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines whether this part will work is the SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface; the host must provide a matching SATA port and 3.5-inch mounting space.

Questions about this item

How does the 7200 RPM spindle speed affect sustained write performance on the HUH728080ALN600?

The 7200 RPM spindle keeps platters rotating fast enough to sustain higher sequential throughput during long write sessions than slower drives.

What noise and heat should I expect when the HUH728080ALN600 runs continuously in a server?

As a 7200 RPM 3.5" mechanical drive, it produces audible seek noise and measurable heat under constant load; ensure your chassis has adequate airflow.

Which host interface and physical bay does the HUH728080ALN600 require to operate?

It needs a SATA 6.0Gb/s port and a standard 3.5" drive bay with matching power and data cables.
