Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB 7200RPM SAS 12Gb/s 3.5-inch CMR Enterprise HDD

The Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB is a 3.5-inch enterprise-class hard disk drive engineered for demanding datacenter environments requiring high sustained throughput, strong random I/O performance, and continuous 24/7 operation. Built on Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) technology, the HC310 delivers predictable, consistent write performance without the complexity of shingled architectures, making it well-suited for mixed read/write enterprise workloads. The drive operates at 7,200 RPM with a SAS 12Gb/s interface, providing dual-port connectivity for high-availability storage configurations.

The HC310 series is designed to sustain a workload rate of up to 550TB per year, reflecting its readiness for always-on enterprise storage arrays, RAID groups, and scale-out NAS systems. The SAS 12Gb/s interface enables full-duplex communication and supports advanced features including command queuing, error recovery controls, and robust end-to-end data integrity through T10 PI (Protection Information) on select configurations. The drive carries a multi-axis shock sensor to help protect data integrity in vibration-prone, multi-drive enclosure environments.

Targeted at cloud service providers, enterprise IT departments, and organizations deploying AI infrastructure, the Ultrastar DC HC310 6TB offers a balance of capacity density and per-drive performance appropriate for primary storage tiers and nearline applications. With a 2.5 million hours MTBF rating, the drive is engineered for high-availability deployments where unplanned downtime carries significant operational consequences. Omnixon Global supplies this drive to enterprise buyers across the UAE, GCC, EMEA, and APAC regions.

Ideal for

• High-density RAID storage arrays in enterprise datacenters requiring dual-port SAS redundancy and consistent CMR write performance
• Scale-out NAS and SAN platforms for unstructured data repositories, file servers, and archive tiers
• AI and machine learning infrastructure storage nodes where large sequential dataset ingestion demands sustained throughput
• Cloud service provider object storage clusters requiring high workload endurance ratings and predictable drive behavior under continuous I/O
• Video surveillance and media asset management systems demanding long sequential write streams and reliable 24/7 duty cycles
• Enterprise backup and recovery target storage where data integrity verification and dual-port failover connectivity are operationally critical
