Western Digital Launches "Helium" Hard Drive 12 Terabytes

Hard drive storage capacity with helium gas technology continues to grow. Western Digital this week launched the "helium" hard drive product with 12 terabytes (12,000 gigabytes) under the HGST brand. His full name, Ultrastar He12.

HGST began to develop hard drives containing helium for several years ago through a process called HelioSeal. The gas is charged into the internal hard disk space where the data storage disk is located.

Helium gas that has micro-climate only 1/7 of the usual air density is claimed to allow a thinner data storage disk and ease the working of the data reader's arm.

As a result, helium hard disk also claimed to have a capacity and higher performance than the hard drive that internal space contains ordinary air.

"Ultrastar He12 is advancing the Western Digital HelioSeal portfolio to deliver industry-leading, large-capacity hard drives," said Grace's Senior Vice President of Devices, as quoted KompasTekno from The Inquirer, Saturday (4/29/2017).

Compared to a class drive containing regular air, the helium hard drive capacity is 50 percent larger. Ultrastar He12 itself has eight magnetic data storage disks, but its claimed power consumption remains efficient.

Ultrastar He12 is available in a choice of SAS 12 Gbps or SATA 6 GBps interface. Harddisk intended for the enterprise has a mean time before failure (MTBF) for 2.5 million hours. Banderol price is still not announced.
