HUS726T6TALN6L4 WD Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB SATA 256 MB 3.5" Server HDD

Datacenter-Class 3.5in SATA Enterprise HDD for Capacity Tiers with the HUS726T6TALN6L4

The HUS726T6TALN6L4 is a WD Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB enterprise hard drive engineered for predictable capacity performance in always-on servers and storage enclosures. Designed for modern x86 platforms, it integrates cleanly into RAID controllers and HBA-based storage stacks where consistent streaming throughput and deterministic latency under mixed queue depth are required for bulk data services.

Architecturally, HUS726T6TALN6L4 aligns with SATA 6Gb/s backplanes and expander topologies, enabling dense 3.5in deployments without consuming PCIe lanes that are reserved for NICs, NVMe tiers, or accelerator attach. Its 4Kn (4KB native) sector format supports contemporary filesystems and object storage software that prefer native alignment, reducing read-modify-write penalties and improving long-term array efficiency. With CMR recording and a 7,200RPM spindle, HUS726T6TALN6L4 is positioned for stable rebuild behavior and consistent performance in RAID groups, while the 256MB cache assists with command reordering and burst smoothing for metadata-heavy operations.

Why Choose the HUS726T6TALN6L4?

Choosing HUS726T6TALN6L4 provides a practical density-to-performance balance for enterprise capacity tiers where cost-effective scaling and operational continuity matter more than ultra-low latency. HUS726T6TALN6L4 is optimized for 24x7 duty cycles in multi-drive environments, supporting disciplined fleet deployment, predictable service windows, and straightforward growth as shelves expand.

WD Ultrastar engineering emphasizes datacenter reliability, controlled vibration behavior, and qualification for storage arrays that operate under sustained thermal and workload pressure. The platform focus aligns with modern rack-scale standards where uniform drive profiles simplify spares strategy, maintenance procedures, and lifecycle planning.

Key Applications:

• RAID capacity tiers in rack servers and JBODs
• Backup and archive repositories
• Object storage and scale-out file storage
• Bulk VM datastore and cold data pools
