14TB enterprise hard drive for servers

This 14TB Ultrastar DC HC530 drive is built for continuous operation in device servers and storage arrays. Its 550TB yearly workload rating and 2.5M hour MTBF suit environments that write and read data around the clock. The 512MB cache helps sustain throughput during heavy sequential workloads.

Fits 3.5-inch bays with SATA 6 Gb/s interface

The standard 3.5-inch form factor slides into hot-swap trays or fixed cages without adapters. A single SATA data and power cable provides the only connections required. HelioSeal helium sealing reduces drag on the platters, lowering power draw and leaving more thermal headroom for neighbouring drives.

Rotational Vibration Safeguard protects

RVS technology monitors vibration in real time and adjusts head positioning to maintain data integrity when many drives spin together. The five-generation HelioSeal platform keeps helium sealed for the life of the drive, preserving the low-drag advantage. A five-year limited warranty covers the rated workload.
