60-Bay Hybrid Storage Platform
The Next Generation Hybrid Platform for
Software-Defined Storage
Designed for High Density and Flexibility
The Ultrastar Data60 is a key element of next-generation disaggregated storage and
software-defined storage (SDS) systems, delivering high density and the flexibility to
balance performance with cost. The Ultrastar Data60 provides up to 840TB of raw
storage in a compact and efficient form factor. Western Digital HelioSeal® drives ensure
cool running, quiet operation and high reliability. A high-performance data tier can be set
up for demanding applications by using SSDs in up to 24 of the drive slots, enabling the
ability to serve both fast data and big data from a single platform.
Building on 50+ Years of Storage Design Experience
Conventional dense disk shelves frequently suffer from performance degradation due to
induced vibration from adjacent drives. Traditional platforms also have cooling challenges
as the cooling air passes over successive rows of drives, losing ef fectiveness as it gets
heated up along the airflow path. Developing storage devices and platforms side-by-side,
we address these challenges through Silicon to Systems Design, a set of technologies
developed based on a holistic view of devices, platform, and their interactions. The first
two of these innovative technologies are IsoVibe™ and ArcticFlow™. IsoVibe reduces
vibration-induced performance degradation, while ArcticFlow overcomes the cooling
issues by introducing cool air into the middle of the platform. Both these technologies
contribute to long-term reliability, enabling our five-year limited warranty on the entire
platform.
Designed for the Enterprise and the Cloud
This new platform addresses the demanding storage needs of large enterprise
customers, storage OEMs, cloud service providers and resellers/integrators that require
dense, shared HDD or hybrid storage. The Ultrastar Data60 provides the flexibility to
specify the HDD and SSD combinations to balance capacity, performance and cost.

IsoVibe Vibration Isolation Technology
Precise cuts in the baseboard provide a suspension for the drives in the chassis, isolating
them from transmitted vibration. The result is that consistent performance is maintained,
even when all the drives are working hard.
ArcticFlow Thermal Zone Cooling Technology
By introducing cool air into the center of the chassis, drives operate at lower and more
consistent temperatures than conventional systems. This results in lower fan speeds, reduced
vibration, lower power consumption, quieter operation and ultimately higher reliability.
