Hitachi Ultrastar 7K3000 3TB 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive

The Hitachi Ultrastar 7K3000 is the world’s first 7200RPM hard drive rated at 2.0 million hours MTBF and backed by a five-year limited warranty. The new storage device offers 50 percent more capacity in the same footprint and does so at a 32 percent reduction in watts/GB versus Hitachi’s prior generation Ultrastar A7K2000 drives. What’s more, the Ultrastar 7K3000 family also represents the first Hitachi 7,200 RPM drives in both 6Gb/s SATA and 6Gb/s SAS interfaces, for easier integration in a much wider array of computing environments. The new Hitachi Ultrastar 7K3000 with a 6Gb/s SATA interface is now available in 3TB and 2TB of storage spaces, while the Ultrastar 7K3000 with a 6Gb/s SAS interface will be available in mid-2011.
