Enterprise capacity drive

The HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 0B26885 is a 4TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for enterprise storage arrays and servers. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 64MB cache and connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface. The bare-drive unit carries a 2.0 million hour MTBF rating for 24x7 operation.

SAS installation notes

The drive fits standard 3.5-inch bays with a maximum height of 26.1mm and uses the SAS 6Gb/s connector for power and data. A compatible SAS backplane or controller is required; SATA-only controllers will not recognise the drive. Dual Stage Actuator and Enhanced Rotational Vibration Safeguard help maintain performance in multi-drive chassis.

Pre-order checklist

Verify that your system provides SAS 6Gb/s ports and that the enclosure can supply adequate cooling for continuous enterprise workloads. Confirm the operating system supports 512e Advanced Format sectors if you plan to use the SATA-model variant. Buyers needing SATA-native connectivity or non-enterprise firmware should consider other models.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the drive is operating correctly after installation?

Check that the controller reports a SAS 6Gb/s link, the firmware identifies the model as HUS724040ALS640, and SMART attributes show zero reallocated sectors.

What does the bare-drive package include and what must I source separately?

Only the 3.5" drive itself is supplied; you need a SAS cable, a compatible backplane or HBA, mounting screws, and a 12 V / 5 V power connector.

Which capacity and interface variant should I choose for a 24/7 enterprise array?

This 4TB SAS 6Gb/s model with 64MB cache and 2.0 million hours MTBF is built for continuous enterprise workloads.
