Data is the lifeblood of strategic business decision-making. And it’s being generated everywhere from smart phones, IoT devices, autonomous vehicles, industrial sensors, medical wearables, video surveillance, and other next-gen tech. Storing all this data is one (big) thing, but being able to preserve, access, and gain actionable insights from that data could be what sets your customer's business apart from the rest.
To do that, your data center storage strategy needs to keep pace—whether that means utilizing tiered storage, co-locating compute and data center systems, deploying multicloud environments, taking full advantage of enterprise hard disk drives (HDDs) for large-capacity storage, or using the latest NVMe™ (nonvolatile memory express) innovations. You need to select the right data storage solution based on your customer's unique application requirements, use cases, and workloads. Is your biggest challenge around storing big data? Disruptive lag times when trying to quickly access or analyze data? Scaling efficiently?
Whether for a large enterprise setting up a private cloud or a small-to-midsize company wanting to securely manage their data on-site, Western Digital data center storage solutions can help store, optimize, and monetize data for better business outcomes.
Western Digital offers an extensive portfolio of enterprise drives and platforms to meet the most demanding data storage needs. Each business is unique—your customers' data infrastructure should be, too. Scale up how much data can stored, boost performance, or both.
The explosive growth of data from AI/ML, 5G networks, IoT, connected vehicles, and more is fueling growth in data centers. HDD innovation drives the ability to capture, store, analyze, and protect much of this data. Higher-capacity HDDs deliver higher data density, enabling data center expansion and efficiency.

Data center decisions are driven by TCO. The Ultrastar DC HC550, with 18TB1, play a leading role in reducing TCO.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Drives the Data Center Architecture
Data center decisions are driven by TCO. Higher capacity hard drives play a leading role in reducing TCO. An 18TB data center internal hard drive provides 29% more capacity in the same form factor as a 14TB HDD. Higher capacity HDDs enable data centers to lower CapEx by reducing supporting hardware and system level costs when compared to lower capacity drives. Helium-sealed, low power, high reliability drives reduce energy and maintenance costs, contributing to OpEx savings. For example, a data center using 18TB HDDs vs. 14TB HDDs can require 22% fewer racks while consuming 21% less power per TB at idle, resulting in significant overall TCO reduction for data center environments.
