Built upon proven technology

Hitachi’s next-generation 3.5-inch 15,000 RPM hard drive delivers the performance and reliability required for mission-critical enterprise computing environments. Leveraging the proven system architecture and electronics of the previous generation, the Ultrastar™ 15K300 provides up to 300 GB capacity, 16 MB cache and Ultra320 SCSI, 3 Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and 4 Gb/s Fibre Channel interfaces. These features make the Ultrastar 15K300 the ideal solution for demanding enterprise computing environments like online transaction processing, intensive data analysis and other multi-user applications. The mature design of the Ultrastar 15K300 helps to ensure shorter qualification times.

Demonstrated reliability

Key reliablility features have been built into the Ultrastar 15K300. Rotational Vibration Safeguard (RVS) technology ensures drive performance in multi-drive systems where rotational vibration is likely to occur. Hitachi’s Thermal Fly-height Control (TFC) capability maintains a consistent fly-height during the read/write process ensuring a better soft error rate and end-to-end data protection enhances error detection for optimal data integrity. Finally, Hitachi offers the only enterprise-class hard drive utilizing a head load/unload ramp to help minimize drive failures as a result of handling during integration.
