Data Center Storage Platforms
Scaling Efficiently and Effectively
Storage Platforms for Big Data, Fast Data, Any Data
Data’s digital footprint continues to expand exponentially and so does its potential. With Western Digital’s storage platforms, you can scale efficiently and maximize the value you extract from your data. Share ultra-fast NVMe SSDs among multiple systems with OpenFlex storage platforms, and operate cost-effectively at scale with Ultrastar storage platforms. With our large-capacity, high-performance platform products, your business can leverage both big data and fast data to achieve big results.
Reduce cooling costs and extend the life of your data center drives with innovative design innovations ArcticFlow and IsoVibe from Western Digital. In addition, adoption of NVMe-oF™ allows data to be easily shared across many servers on a network. Learn more about these key platform design technologies below.
ArcticFlow Thermal Zone Cooling Technology
Cooling innovation results in lower fan speeds, reduced vibration, lower power consumption, quieter operation and ultimately higher reliability.
IsoVibe Vibration Isolation Technology
Precise cuts in the baseboard provide a suspension for the drives in the chassis, isolating them from transmitted vibration.
NVMe-oF (NVMe-Over-Fabrics)
Allows NVMe-based storage to be shared between hosts at comparable performance to locally-attached SSDs.
Our platforms are purpose-designed for specific requirements—review the chart below to find out which is the best fit for you.
