HGST ready to launch first helium-filled 10TB HDDs

HGST ready to launch first helium-filled 10TB HDDs

That's right, 10TB ! This division of Western Digital started sampling its first 10TB sealed HDDs a while ago, the HDDs are filled with helium and use shingled magnetic recording (SMR) technology to offer even platters with 1.43TB of storage capacity on each of them.

The 3.5-inch form factor SATA 3 drive will offer 128 MB of cache, a five-year warranty, two million hour meantime between failure (MTBF) rating, and Instant Secure Erase features.

"With ever-increasing pressures on corporate and cloud data centers to improve storage efficiencies and reduce costs, HGST is at the forefront delivering a revolutionary new solution that significantly improves data center TCO on virtually every level - capacity, power, cooling and storage density - all in the same 3.5-inch form factor," said Brendan Collins, vice president of product marketing, HGST. "Not only is our new Ultrastar helium hard drive helping customers solve data center challenges today, our mainstream helium platform will serve as the future building block for new products and technologies moving forward. This is a huge feat, and we are gratified by the support of our customers in the development of this platform."

Looks like the HDDs will be released next month already, and hey they won't be the only 10TB HDDs from HGST. The firm is also rumored to be working on a six-platter variant with 1.66TB of storage capacity on each platter.

How come HHDs are always linked with Porn?

I think it goes back to a comment made by someone at western digital or seagate? i forget the exact comment but I'm guessing someone here can remember it.
