  • Massive 24 TB capacity for large datasets

  • 262 MB/s sequential read accelerates heavy workloads
  • SATA 600 interface fits standard 3.5 in bays

Enterprise capacity drive

Western Digital WD Gold WD241KRYZ is a 24 TB internal hard drive built for enterprise workloads. The 3.5 inch form factor uses a SATA interface running at 600 MB/s and spins at 7200 RPM with a 512 MB cache. Sequential read speed reaches 262 MB/s. It is suited for servers and storage arrays that need high capacity on a standard SATA connection.

Suitable for bulk storage arrays

This drive fits administrators who want maximum terabytes per bay on a SATA backplane. The 7200 RPM spindle and large cache help with sustained throughput for archiving, backup targets or near-line data. Buyers needing solid state speed or a different interface should consider alternative storage technologies. The 3.5 inch size requires a compatible drive bay and power connector.

24 TB on SATA 600 MB/s

The single specification that decides fit is the 24 TB capacity delivered through a SATA 600 MB/s interface. That combination determines whether the drive matches the controller, backplane and capacity plan of the target system. No other figure in the data changes that compatibility decision.

Questions about this item

Does the WD Gold WD241KRYZ 24 TB drive include mounting screws or a SATA cable in the box?

The drive is sold as an OEM unit; only the bare 3.5 in hard drive is supplied. Mounting screws and a SATA data cable must be purchased separately.

The product name shows 24 TB — is that the only capacity available for the WD241KRYZ model?

WD241KRYZ is the specific part number for the 24 TB capacity. Other capacities carry different model numbers, so this SKU represents a single 24 TB option.

The spec lists a 262 MB/s read speed — will I see that throughput in a typical desktop PC?

The 262 MB/s figure is the maximum sustained transfer rate under ideal conditions. Real-world speeds depend on the SATA III host controller, cable quality and system workload.
