Future of More. Plus One The world’s first 11-disk CMR HDD platform delivers unbeaten capacity of up to 26TB to help quench customer’s insatiable demand for increased storage density in the existing storage footprint. Rapid Qualification and Rock Solid Reliability Leveraging field-proven hardware and firmware designs from generations of highly successful products ensures easy qualification, seamless integration and rapid adoption while maintaining superior dependability and reliability. Maximum Rack-Space Efficiency The higher storage density provided by 11 disks combined with our energy-assisted Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (ePMR) technologies, which increase tracks-per-inch (TPI), allow data centers to maximize their storage efficiency. Protected Against Vibration & Shock Our exclusive Rotational Vibration Safeguard (RVS) uses dual sensors to anticipate and counteract disturbances, maintaining peak performance in high-vibration environments. Combined with Dynamic Fly Height technology, Western Digital offers exceptional drive reliability and protection from unexpected shock events. Engineered with Industry-Leading Technology Western Digital’s proprietary OptiNAND™ technology leverages integrated iNAND® embedded flash to perform key housekeeping functions, freeing up more capacity and improving the overall drive performance.
