HUS726T6TAL5204 WD Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB SAS 256 MB 3.5" Server HDD

High-Density 3.5-inch Enterprise SAS HDD for 24x7 Datacenter Storage with the HUS726T6TAL5204

The HUS726T6TAL5204 is a WD Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB 3.5-inch internal SAS hard drive engineered for predictable throughput and continuous duty cycles in server and storage platforms. It is designed to integrate cleanly behind modern SAS HBAs and RAID controllers, supporting capacity-oriented scale-out architectures where consistent latency and rebuild behavior matter.

In virtualized and shared-storage environments, the HUS726T6TAL5204 supports balanced I/O profiles for VM datastores, file services, and log retention by combining 7200 RPM CMR recording with controller-optimized caching and sector format flexibility (4Kn/512e). The single-port SAS interface aligns with enterprise backplanes and expander topologies, while keeping PCIe lanes available for NVMe tiers or network adapters; this enables hybrid storage designs where HDD pools handle bulk capacity and NVMe accelerates hot data and metadata.

Why Choose the HUS726T6TAL5204?

The HUS726T6TAL5204 targets high-capacity density per 3.5-inch bay, allowing SAN/NAS expansion and RAID array growth without redesigning chassis layouts. Its datacenter duty profile and long-life reliability characteristics support large drive counts, predictable maintenance windows, and scalable deployments where uptime and consistent performance under sustained load are operational requirements.

WD’s Ultrastar engineering prioritizes controlled vibration behavior, firmware tuned for multi-drive enclosures, and qualification for enterprise SAS ecosystems. This focus aligns the platform with modern data center standards for 24x7 operation, secure data lifecycle controls, and repeatable fleet management across heterogeneous server generations.

Key Applications:

• RAID arrays and capacity pools
• SAN/NAS expansion shelves
• Backup and archive repositories
• VM datastores
• File and print services
• Log retention and compliance storage
