Western Digital has executed the next phase of its HDD technology roadmap, giving hyperscale, cloud and enterprise customers unmatched solutions to help reach sustainability goals and lower TCO, while the industry is seeing shingled magnetic recording (SMR) gain momentum.
As new applications, use cases and connected devices multiply, Western Digital’s enterprise-class hard disk drives (HDDs) remain critical for helping data centre customers design more cost-efficient, scalable and sustainable infrastructure.
When combined with the emergence of Generative AI and the multitude of innovative applications it is enabling, the demand for high-capacity, low-power and reliable storage is poised to surge.
Western Digital leverages numerous technology innovations – ePMR, OptiNAND, UltraSMR and more – to deliver predictable capacity growth in scalable, highly reliable products.
“New and existing endpoints from industries, connected devices, digital platforms, AI innovations, autonomous machines and more create a staggering amount of data each day,” said Ashley Gorakhpurwalla, EVP and GM, HDD Business Unit, Western Digital. “This relentless creation of data ultimately finds its way to the cloud, which is underpinned by our continued advancements in HDDs.
“As a strategic partner to cloud and data centre customers around the world, we are extending the value of our proven HDD platform and technology innovations to deliver the highest capacity HDD storage and TCO value that our customers demand.”
This new generation of drives is built on a proven platform with technology innovations specifically designed for data centre customers who are consistently looking for the highest capacity storage to help them achieve the lowest possible total cost of ownership (TCO).
