Seagate Technology unveiled two new enterprise-class hard disk drives (HDD) optimized for emerging cloud infrastructure and large scale data centres. The Seagate Terascale HDD and Enterprise Performance 10K HDD v7 provide high-capacity storage in low-power configurations making them perfect for efficiently and affordably storing the ever-growing amount of unstructured data typically stored in the cloud.
Scott Horn, Seagate vice president of marketing predicts that over the next eight years capacity shipped into the cloud will double and that by 202 personal and enterprise clouds will account for greater than 60% of total storage capacity shipped. He further predicts that storage providers will need to deploy more storage quickly all while increasing capacity and lowering energy costs.
The 4TB Terascale HDD ships in a 3.5-inch SATA form factor and is designed for capacity in low workload, 24x7 replicated environments. It is Seagate’s lowest $/GB enterprise HDD for use in scalable multi-drive systems.
The Terascale HDD lowers costs by operating at one of the lowest enterprise HDD power consumption available reducing on-going energy and cooling costs for multi-drive large scale operations. As a result, the drive lowers total cost of ownership while providing unparalleled enterprise-class reliability.
The Seagate Enterprise Performance 10K HDD v7 is a 2.5-inch HDD designed for mission critical applications where performance and reliability in a low form factor, low-power requirements are top priorities.
Extremely energy-efficient, the Enterprise Performance 10K HDD v7 delivers one of the highest GB/Watt power optimization and cooling costs in a 2.5-inch enterprise 10K HDD available, and is comes with a 6Gb/s SAS interface for dependable ultra-fast storage.
