Frequently asked questions

What is the total raw storage capacity achievable with Ultrastar DC HC570 drives in a typical rack configuration?

A standard 42U rack with 10x 4U JBODs containing 102 HC570 drives delivers 22.44PB of raw storage capacity. This represents Western Digital's 2.2TB/disk areal density leadership extended across a 10-disk platform, maximizing volumetric storage efficiency for hyperscale data center deployments.

How does OptiNAND technology improve drive performance and reliability?

OptiNAND improves drive resiliency during emergency power-off (EPO) events by enhancing data integrity and reducing corruption risk. Combined with ArmorCache power loss protection, it provides enterprise-grade safeguards for mission-critical storage environments requiring 24x7 availability and protection against unexpected power failures.

What workload types is the HC570 optimized for?

The HC570 is engineered for sequential and random read/write workloads typical of cloud storage, object storage systems (Ceph, OpenStack Swift), distributed file systems, and Apache Hadoop big data analytics. Low idle power consumption (5.7W) and efficient thermal design support continuous 24x7 operation in high-density data centers.

What are the key reliability specifications for enterprise deployments?

The HC570 features a 2.5M hours projected MTBF rating, 600,000 load/unload cycles at 40°C, non-recoverable error rate of 1 in 10^15 bits read, and 5-year limited warranty. These specifications support mission-critical storage requiring high availability and data integrity across extended deployment lifecycles.

How does the HelioSeal design benefit data center operations?

The 8th-generation HelioSeal design uses helium-filled chambers to reduce drag, lower power consumption, and improve thermal efficiency compared to air-filled drives. This enables higher areal density (1109 Gbits/sq. in.), lower operating temperatures, and reduced cooling requirements in dense rack configurations.

What interface options are available for the HC570?

The HC570 is available in both SATA 6Gb/s (600MB/s max transfer rate) and SAS 12Gb/s (1200MB/s max transfer rate) configurations. Both support 512e and 4Kn sector formats, allowing flexibility for different storage architectures and legacy system compatibility requirements.

What power efficiency does the HC570 deliver for large-scale deployments?

The HC570 consumes 5.7W at idle (0.26W/TB efficiency) and 9.3W during read/write operations (0.42W/TB efficiency). This low power profile significantly reduces total cost of ownership in hyperscale deployments, where thousands of drives operate continuously in high-density racks.
