0F27614 WD Ultrastar DC HC510 8TB SATA 256 MB 3.5" Server HDD

High-Density 3.5in Datacenter SATA HDD featuring helium-sealed CMR media with the 0F27614

The 0F27614 is an internal 3.5in WD Ultrastar datacenter HDD engineered for predictable bulk storage in always-on server and JBOD architectures. Using a SATA interface and 7200RPM mechanics, the 0F27614 targets capacity-driven nodes where consistent throughput, low operational variance, and straightforward integration into existing backplanes are required.

Built on CMR recording with a 4Kn (4KB native) format, the 0F27614 is optimized for modern filesystems and object storage stacks that benefit from native sector alignment and reduced translation overhead. A 256MB cache supports burst handling for mixed read/write profiles, while the helium-filled design improves thermals and power efficiency for dense chassis. For regulated environments, the 0F27614 integrates hardware-based self-encrypting drive functionality with 128-bit AES, enabling at-rest protection without consuming host CPU resources. With an MTBF rating of 2.0M hours, the 0F27614 aligns with enterprise reliability expectations for continuous duty-cycle deployment.

Why Choose the 0F27614?

The 0F27614 delivers a strong density-to-reliability profile for capacity tiers, helping architects scale raw TB per rack while maintaining predictable service behavior under 24/7 workloads. The 0F27614 fits cleanly into SATA-based storage planes, supporting phased expansions, spares standardization, and operational consistency across multi-node fleets.

WD Ultrastar engineering emphasizes datacenter-grade qualification, controlled component tolerances, and sustained operation under elevated utilization. The platform is designed to align with modern data centre standards for power, thermals, and security, enabling repeatable deployment in enterprise storage and archive environments.
