Hyperscale cloud, cloud services, enterprise, smart video surveillance, NAS, and other storage-intensive application areas require solutions that can handle the exponential growth of data. When it comes to cost-effective, high-capacity storage, HDDs (hard disk drives) will continue to play a central role. HDDs provide the necessary capacity, performance, and reliability to store vast amounts of data today and in the future. Investments in HDD technology remain a critical solution for global data growth.

The Ultrastar DC HC560 delivers an unparalleled capacity of 20 TB in a nine-disk platform (2.2 TB per disk) with the CMR recording format, featuring the first implementation of capacity-enhancing OptiNAND functions.

Western Digital has developed flash-enhanced hard drives with OptiNAND technology through the vertical integration of its leading NAND flash into its best-in-class HDDs. Western Digital HDDs have leading areal density thanks to revolutionary technologies such as EAMR (Energy-Assisted Magnetic Recording), TSA (Triple-Stage Actuator), HelioSeal, and now OptiNAND. The higher areal density results in higher capacity to meet the challenges of data growth.

OptiNAND combines iNAND UFS EFD (Universal Flash Storage Embedded Flash Drive) memory with the proven rotating storage medium and introduces innovative changes to the firmware algorithm and SoC (System-on-a-Chip). However, OptiNAND is not a hybrid technology. Thanks to improved firmware algorithms, the hard drives become smarter: they utilize the extensive metadata that has been shifted to the iNAND, allowing for more TPI (Tracks Per Inch) and greater areal density.

In computer science, a buffer is a region of a physical memory storage used to temporarily hold data while it is being moved from one place to another. Typically, the data is stored in a buffer as it is retrieved from an input device (such as a mouse) or just before it is sent to an output device (such as speakers). However, a buffer may be used when moving data between processes within a computer. This is comparable to buffers in telecommunication. Buffers can be implemented in a fixed memory location in hardware - or by using a virtual data buffer in software, pointing at a location in the physical memory. In all cases, the data stored in a data buffer, are stored on a physical storage media.
