Customize your business storage with enterprise-class WD Gold SATA HDDs available in capacities from 1TB to 24TB, including OptiNAND™ models at 20TB, 22TB and 24TB. These drives are engineered for data centers and enterprise storage systems, offering high reliability, vibration protection technology and low power consumption for drives 12TB and above thanks to HelioSeal. WD Gold is designed for heavy application workloads and supports annual workloads up to 550TB.

Advantages

WD Gold provides a wide range of capacities to fit different storage mixes and business needs while maintaining enterprise-grade performance. Drives deliver up to 2.5 million hours MTBF for improved dependability and include advanced vibration monitoring and correction for stable operation in multi-drive and high-vibration environments. OptiNAND-enabled models increase usable capacity, and ArmorCache on select high-capacity drives adds power-loss protection and performance benefits depending on cache mode.

Use write-cache settings and power-loss protection features (ArmorCache) as appropriate for your data integrity and performance needs.

Recommendations

Choose HelioSeal models (12TB and up) when power efficiency is important; select OptiNAND-equipped capacities for maximum usable storage at the highest capacities; verify compatibility with your server or storage array vendor and maintain adequate vibration and thermal management in dense installations.
