HGST combines ultimate performance with high capacity in the same drive. The
Ultrastar™ 15K600 can store up to 600GB of data while spinning at 15,000 RPM. That
amounts to a capacity growth of 33% over its predecessor to keep pace with digital data
growth and improve space efficiency in today’s data centers. At the same time, sequential
performance increased by 23% compared to prior generation to keep data moving faster.
The 64MB cache buffer is the largest in the industry in its class and the 15K600 is designed
for HGST reliability. The 6Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and 4Gb/s Fibre Channel
Arbitrated Loop (FCAL) interfaces support the reliability required in the most demanding
enterprise computing environments like on-line transaction processing, intensive data
analysis, multi-user applications and data warehousing.
