The WD Gold hard drives are now available in 10TB capacities. The new hard drives feature the HelioSeal helium-technology to reduces internal resistance for improved performance and efficiency.

According to WDWD Gold datacenter hard drives are designed for a broad range of applications – including small- to medium-scale enterprise servers and storage, and rack-mount datacenter servers and storage enclosures. WD Gold 10TB datacenter hard drives feature an optimized design over the existing WD Gold 8TB drives that helps reduce TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of servers and storage systems through an 8 percent operating power reduction while delivering 25 percent more capacity. This benefits IT administrators challenged with keeping up with growing storage demands on limited budgets.

  • Improved power efficiency – HelioSeal Technology delivers lower power with an increase in capacity.
  • Better performance – Up to 21 percent sequential performance improvement over WD Gold 8TB datacenter drives
