Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC670 20TB SAS HDD WUH722020BSL5204

The Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC670 is a 20TB capacity SAS hard drive engineered for high-capacity enterprise storage arrays. Built on a CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording) platform, the HC670 delivers consistent sequential and random I/O performance suitable for mixed workload environments in data centers. The dual-port SAS interface enables active-active connectivity in redundant storage configurations, providing path failover and load balancing for mission-critical systems.

Designed specifically for large-scale storage deployments, the HC670 integrates into HPE, Dell EMC, and other vendor storage arrays utilizing standard SAS backplanes. The drive features enterprise-grade reliability mechanisms including vibration tolerance for multi-drive bay environments and thermal management optimized for 24/7 operation in controlled data center conditions.

With a 20TB formatted capacity per drive, the HC670 maximizes storage density per rack unit, reducing total cost of ownership in hyperscale and enterprise data center architectures. The platform supports automated workload optimization and is specified in tier-2 and tier-3 storage applications including near-line archival, video repositories, and backup targets.

Ideal for

• HPE and Dell EMC SAS storage array configurations requiring 20TB per-drive capacity
• Large-scale video content repositories and media asset management systems
• Enterprise backup and disaster recovery target storage
• Nearline archival for compliance-driven data retention programs
• Data warehouse and analytics platforms with sequential access patterns
• Hyperscale data center storage infrastructure deployments
