About this product
The HGST 10TB 3.5-inch HDD is an Ultrastar series hard drive designed for high-capacity storage, featuring a 7200 RPM rotation speed and a SAS 12Gb/s interface. This internal drive comes with a 256MB cache and supports a 4Kn sector size, catering to modern enterprise systems. Compatible with PC, it offers a silver color and an HDD-only storage format, making it suitable for server or workstation use where large, reliable storage is paramount.
Our take
If you're looking for a serious storage solution for a server or a high-end workstation, this HGST Ultrastar 10TB SAS drive is a strong contender. The 7200 RPM and 256MB cache ensure good performance for an HDD, and the SAS 12Gb/s interface provides fast data transfer speeds. The 4Kn sector size is a forward-looking feature for compatibility with newer operating systems and applications. It's a reliable, high-capacity unit, though bear in mind that the SAS interface means it's not a plug-and-play solution for typical consumer PCs.
