WD introduces hard drives for SMB and Mid-Sized NAS Deployments
Western Digital (WD) has announced availability of its innovative WD Se line of hard drives, designed for scale-out datacenter deployments. Built on an enterprise-grade platform for reliable 24x7x365 datacenter operation, WD Se is tailored to deliver the right combination of performance, reliability and robustness for large-scale replicated environments, mid-sized network attached storage (NAS) deployment, and backup/archiving applications.
WD Se hard drives enable customers to balance their data growth challenges in multi-drive enclosures without compromising enterprise-class features.
Richard E. Rutledge, SVP of WD’s Datacenter Storage Business Unit said, WD’s utilization of vast amounts of manufacturing and engineering data has forced us like many other companies to use map-reduce methodologies to effectively analyze our data. The WD Se hard drives are used in our own big datacenter, where we have gained real-world experience with Apache Hadoop.
WD Se drives also address the fast-growing SMB to mid-range network-attached storage (NAS) market. Together, WD Se, WD Xe, WD Re and WD Red provide a total portfolio of robust storage devices to match every size and scale of NAS deployment.
WD’s Se hard drives, shipping in capacities from 2 TB to 4 TB are available through select distributors and resellers. Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the WD Se 2 TB, model WD2000F9YZ is Rs 9650 (inclusive of taxes), WD Se 3 TB, model WD3000F9YZ is Rs 13800 and WD Se 4 TB, model WD4000F9YZ is Rs 18100. These Se drives are covered by a five-year limited warranty.
