Enterprise 16 TB SATA Drive

The Synology HAT5310-16T is a 16 TB 3.5 inch internal hard drive built for continuous operation in network-attached storage. It targets administrators who need high-capacity, reliable storage for multi-user file serving, backup repositories or surveillance archives.

7200 RPM with 512 MB Cache

The drive spins at 7200 RPM and provides a 512 MB cache, delivering the sustained throughput required for heavy sequential workloads. It is rated for up to 2.5 million hours MTBF and 550 TB per year, making it suitable for 24/7 duty cycles.

DSM Firmware and Write Cache

Persistent write cache technology protects data during unexpected power loss, while DSM integration enables one-click firmware updates without extra maintenance windows. Firmware tuning improves multi-client sequential read performance by up to 35 percent in validated Synology systems.

Questions about this item

How does the 7200 RPM speed translate to everyday performance inside a Synology NAS?

The 7200 RPM spindle delivers sustained throughput for multi-client workloads, and DSM firmware tuning improves sequential read performance by up to 35% in compatible systems.

What does the SATA interface limit on this 16TB drive?

The SATA connection caps the maximum transfer rate at the SATA III 6 Gb/s ceiling, so the drive cannot exceed that bandwidth regardless of its internal speed.

Will the 26.1mm height fit my standard 3.5-inch drive bay?

Yes, the 26.1mm height, 101.85mm width and 147mm length match the standard 3.5-inch form factor used in most desktop chassis and NAS enclosures.
