Western Digital JBOD Storage Systems of the Ultrastar Series
Designed for SDS environments, cloud infrastructure, Big Data and backup - Western Digital's Ultrastar Data60 and Ultrastar Data102 hybrid storage platforms are the first choice when highly available and proven JBOD storage solutions are needed for data centers and industry. These platforms are a key element of next-generation disaggregated storage and software-defined storage (SDS) systems, delivering high density and the flexibility to balance performance and capacity with cost.
The Ultrastar Data60 and Data102 Hybrid Storage Platforms address the demanding storage needs of large enterprise customers, storage OEMs, cloud service providers and resellers/integrators that require dense, shared HDD or hybrid storage. Even large capacity needs can be fulfilled with the newest 20, 22 and 26 TB drive models available for these platforms.
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 effectiveness as it gets heated up along the airflow path. Developing storage devices and platforms side-by-side, we address these challenges through vertical innovation, a set of technologies developed based on a holistic view of devices, platform, and their interactions. The first two of these patented 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.
