Enterprise storage drive

The HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 0F12456 is a 3TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for enterprise storage systems. It operates at 7200 RPM with a 64MB cache and connects via a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. The drive carries a 2.0 million hour MTBF rating and uses a fifth-generation five-platter mechanical design introduced in 2004.

Suited for capacity-optimised arrays

This drive suits administrators deploying 24x7 enterprise arrays where high MTBF and proven mechanical design are priorities. The bare-drive packaging means no mounting hardware or cables are included. Buyers needing a retail kit with mounting hardware or desktop users wanting quieter acoustics should consider alternatives.

SATA 6.0Gb/s interface

The single specification that decides fitment is the SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. The drive requires a matching SATA port and will not work with SAS-only backplanes unless a compatible controller is present. Verify that your chassis and controller support 3.5-inch SATA drives before purchase.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the drive is operating correctly after installation?

Check that the BIOS or operating system detects a 3TB SATA 6.0Gb/s device, run the manufacturer diagnostic tool for a short self-test, and confirm SMART attributes show no reallocated sectors.

What ships with the bare drive and what must I supply?

The package contains only the 3.5" HUA723030ALA640 mechanism; you must provide a SATA data cable, a SATA power connector, and 3.5" mounting screws or a drive tray.

Which capacity and interface version of the Ultrastar 7K3000 should I select?

This model is the 3TB 64MB cache variant with a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface; choose it when you need that exact capacity and SATA connectivity.
