Enterprise storage drive
The HGST Ultrastar DC HC310 HUS726T4TALE6L4 is a 4TB 3.5-inch hard drive built for enterprise storage arrays and servers. It connects via a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface and spins at 7200 RPM with a 256MB cache. The 512e sector format ensures broad compatibility with existing infrastructure. This bare drive suits IT managers expanding high-density capacity in rack environments.
Sustained transfer up to 255MB/s
Under continuous workloads the drive maintains a sustained transfer rate up to 255MB/s, supporting steady streaming and batch processing rather than only burst speeds. Better head positioning and rotational vibration robustness keep performance consistent when multiple drives operate in the same chassis. The 7200 RPM spindle delivers fast random and sequential access for traditional data centre applications. Low capacity options help address architecture limits in distributed computing clusters.
26.10mm height fits standard bays
The 26.10mm z-height matches standard 3.5-inch drive bays, simplifying hot-swap tray installation in servers and storage enclosures. A SATA data and power connector layout follows the familiar enterprise pin-out for quick cabling. Bare-drive packaging means no retail accessories are included, so mounting screws and rails come from the chassis vendor. The design targets lower acquisition cost while maintaining the reliability expected in block and file storage architectures.

Questions about this item
How much heat and power does the Ultrastar DC HC310 draw when running continuously in a server?
The 3.5-inch enterprise drive is designed for high power efficiency in data-center workloads, delivering a sustained transfer rate up to 255MB/s while keeping total cost of ownership low.
What host interface and controller does my system need to use this HUS726T4TALE6L4 drive?
It requires a standard SATA 6.0Gb/s port and uses 512e sector formatting, so any modern motherboard or RAID controller with a SATA connector will recognise the full 4TB capacity.
Will this 7200 RPM SATA drive work reliably alongside older 3.5-inch drives in the same array?
Yes, the Ultrastar DC HC310 features improved head positioning and rotational vibration robustness for stable operation in multi-drive chassis, and its 256MB cache helps maintain consistent throughput.
