Features
ULTRA-FAST SAS STORAGE
WD Xe delivers 6 Gb/s transfer rates, best-in-class maximum sequential data rate of 204 MB/s and outstanding random I/O performance.
LOW POWER CONSUMPTION
WD Xe SAS drives use less power resulting in, lower cooling costs and lower total cost of ownership (TCO) while increasing capacity and reliability.
INDUSTRY’S HIGHEST RELIABILITY RATING
With a field-tested 2 million hour MTBF, this high performance drive is perfect for enterprise server and enterprise storage applications.
ENTERPRISE READY
WD Xe SAS hard drives provide up to 900 GB of high performance storage suitable for both enterprise server and enterprise storage applications.
DUAL PORT, FULL DUPLEX CONNECTIVITY
Offers higher reliability, performance and data availability by eliminating single points of failure, designed for high-availability mission-critical enterprise systems.
3.5-INCH PERFORMANCE ADAPTER
WD Xe comes pre-mounted in a 3.5-inch performance adapter, providing easy installation into legacy 3.5-inch server and storage system slots, while optimizing the drive’s thermal management efficiency. (HKHG models only)
ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE
In addition to being RoHS compliant, these drives are built with halogen reduced components.
NOTOUCH RAMP LOAD TECHNOLOGY
The recording head never touches the disk media ensuring significantly less wear to the recording head and media as well as better drive protection in transit.
ROTARY ACCELERATION FEED FORWARD (RAFF)
Optimizes operation and performance when the drives are used in vibration-prone, multi-drive chassis.
IDEAL FOR
High performance computing and mission-critical environments.
DUAL PROCESSOR
Twice the processing power to maximize performance.
DUAL PORT, FULL DUPLEX CONNECTIVITY
A head positioning system with two actuators that improves positional accuracy over the data track(s). The primary actuator provides coarse displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles. The secondary actuator uses piezoelectric motion to fine tune the head positioning to a higher degree of accuracy.
DUAL ACTUATOR TECHNOLOGY
Twice the processing power to maximize performance.
STABLETRAC
The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking during read and write operations
MULTI-AXIS SHOCK SENSOR
Automatically detects the subtlest shock events and compensates to protect the data.
LOWER YOUR POWER CONSUMPTION
The 2.5-inch WD Xe SAS drive requires less than 8 watts to operate. Its small form-factor allows for more system airflow resulting in lower cooling costs.
The 3.5-inch WD Xe SAS drive delivers up to 67% lower power versus 3.5-inch 15,000 RPM drives, which can result in substantially lower total cost of ownership (TCO) while increasing capacity and reliability.
VIBRATION PROTECTION
Enhanced RAFF technology includes sophisticated electronics to monitor the drive and correct both linear and rotational vibration in real time. The result is a significant performance improvement in high vibration environments over the previous generation of drives.
RAID-SPECIFIC, TIME-LIMITED ERROR RECOVERY (TLER)
Prevents drive fallout caused by the extended hard drive error-recovery processes common to desktop drives.
THERMAL EXTENDED BURN-IN TEST
Each drive is put through extended burn-in testing with thermal cycling to ensure reliable operation.
DYNAMIC FLY HEIGHT TECHNOLOGY
Each read-write head’s fly height is adjusted in real time for optimum reliability.
THE WD ADVANTAGE
WD puts our datacentre products through extensive Functional Integrity Testing (F.I.T) prior to any product launch. This testing ensures our products consistently meet the high quality and reliability standards of the WD brand. Following a FIT test the Enterprise System Group (ESG) testing validates interoperability with HBAs, operating systems and drivers to ensure an even greater level of quality, reliability and peace of mind.
WD also has a detailed Knowledge Base with helpful articles and software utilities. Our customer support lines have longer operational hours to ensure you get the help you need when you need it. Our toll-free customer support lines are here to help or you can access our WD Support site for additional details.
SELF-ENCRYPTING DRIVE (SED) OPTION
SAS Drive: Optional secure model for encrypting drives – Utilizing an AES 256 bit encryption engine for Crypto erase capability, WD supports the industry standard implementations of both the SCSI Sanitize command with Crypto Erase and the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) command set.*
* SED drives may require TCG-compliant host or controller support. SED drives may not be available in all countries.
