Singular Expert Insight
The Ultrastar DC HA340 is Western Digital’s mainstream data-center line; at 8 TB it is a cost-effective, dependable CMR SATA drive for servers and storage arrays that need proven 24/7 capacity rather than maximum density. If you need much higher capacity per bay, the helium-sealed Ultrastar HC-series in our enterprise/server HDD range scales to 24 TB and beyond. For maximum IOPS, an enterprise SSD is the alternative.

Buyer’s Guide

Buy it if
You need dependable 8 TB CMR capacity for a server or storage array
You run 24/7 workloads of up to 550 TB/year
You want data-center reliability and a 5-year warranty
Skip it if
You need much higher capacity per bay — see the Ultrastar HC-series
You only need occasional desktop backup — a consumer drive costs less
You need sub-millisecond latency — choose an enterprise SSD
Also consider
WD Ultrastar higher capacities (HC5xx up to 24TB)
WD Gold 8TB (WD8005FRYZ) as an alternative
Seagate Exos 7E10/7E8 8TB as an alternative
