Dell-branded Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB SATA (Dell PN)

The Dell-branded Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB SATA is an enterprise-class hard drive built on Western Digital's HelioSeal helium-sealed platform, delivering reliable high-capacity storage within a 3.5-inch form factor. Operating at 7,200 RPM with a 256MB cache buffer, the HC310 is engineered for sustained 24/7 operation in demanding data center environments. The drive leverages conventional magnetic recording (CMR) technology, ensuring full compatibility with enterprise workloads requiring consistent write performance and broad host system support.

Designed for mixed read/write workloads, the Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB carries a workload rating of up to 180TB per year, making it well-suited for always-on server and storage array deployments. The HelioSeal design reduces internal air turbulence and platters' aerodynamic drag by filling the enclosure with helium rather than air, resulting in lower operating temperatures, reduced power consumption, and improved mechanical stability across the drive's service life. The drive connects via a 6Gb/s SATA III interface, offering broad compatibility across standard enterprise server platforms including Dell PowerEdge systems.

As a Dell part number (400-AMDR), this unit is validated and integrated within Dell's supply chain for seamless deployment in Dell server and storage infrastructure. Enterprise IT teams procuring through Dell-qualified components benefit from platform-level compatibility assurance across Dell PowerEdge rack servers, tower servers, and direct-attached storage enclosures. Omnixon Global makes this drive available to enterprise buyers across the UAE, GCC, EMEA, and APAC regions, supporting data center build-outs, storage refreshes, and AI infrastructure expansion projects at scale.
