The Ultrastar A7K2000 provides twice the data storage capacity of the prior generation Ultrastar A7K1000 drive, & does so using fewer watts. Operating at 7200 RPM, the Hitachi Ultrastar A7K2000 offers better overall performance than slower-RPM, capacity-oriented drives at impressively low power-consumption rates. When compared to the previous generation Ultrastar A7K1000, the A7K2000 offers up to a 155% improvement in sustained data transfer rate, & a 120% improvement in watts-per-GB. With five Advanced Power Management modes, a 36% reduction in watts during low-RPM idle mode, & using less than 1W during standby/sleep mode, the Ultrastar A7K2000 can help data centers achieve lower AC power & HVAC requirements, freeing up precious headroom for growing enterprise needs.
