Capacity and Interface

This HGST Deskstar HDN726060ALE610 provides 6TB of storage over a SATA 6.0Gb/s connection in a standard 3.5-inch form factor. It spins at 7200 RPM with 64MB cache and is rated for enterprise NAS workloads. The drive is supplied new.

Installation and Common Issues

The 3.5-inch SATA drive fits standard desktop bays and uses ordinary SATA data and power cables. The supplier notes that retail or OEM packing may vary, so mounting screws are not guaranteed to be included. The rotational vibration sensor helps maintain performance when multiple drives are installed in the same chassis.

Who This Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere

This drive suits builders who need high-capacity NAS storage with 7200 RPM speeds and a 1 million hour MTBF rating. Buyers who want more storage per drive or a non-SATA interface should look at something else.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 7200 RPM drive is performing at its rated speed after installation?

Run a benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark and verify sequential reads approach the SATA 6.0Gb/s interface limit; seek times should stay below 12 ms.

What comes in the box and what must I supply separately?

The drive itself is included; retail or OEM packing may vary. You must provide a SATA data cable, a SATA power connector and a 3.5-inch drive bay or bracket.

Should I choose the 6TB model or a different capacity from the 7K4000 family?

Select the 6TB version when you need that specific capacity; other 7K4000 models offer different capacities but share the same 7200 RPM, 64MB cache and SATA 6.0Gb/s specifications.
