## Description

HGST Enterprise class, 7200 RPM, SATA III 6.0Gb/s hard drive for high-capacity nearline environments, Heavy Duty Enhancing data safety and security To ensure the utmost in data safety and security, the HGST Ultrastar A7K4000 is also available with a bulk data encryption (BDE) option. When enabled, the Hitachi BDE implementation encrypts all data on the drive using a private security key as it is written to the disk, and then decrypts it with the key as it is retrieved, giving users an extreme level of data protection. Unlike softwarebased encryption solutions, the Hitachi BDE implementation is hardware-based, so it doesn’t slow the system down. This technology also speeds up and simplifies the drive re-deployment and decommissioning process. By deleting the encryption key, the data is rendered unreadable, thereby eliminating the need for time-consuming, multi-pattern data overwrite. Delivering industry-leading reliability  With a robust fourth-generation mechanical design, HGST Ultrastar A7K4000 is specifically built and tested for the enterprise. The Ultrastar SATA drive family features Hitachi-patented Rotational Vibration Safeguard (RVS) sensor technology, which optimizes drive reliability in multi-drive RAID arrays and rack-mounted systems. Backed by a five-year warranty, the Ultrastar platform has earned Hitachi a reputation among server and storage vendors as a global partner dedicated to delivering the highest quality and reliability in the industry.  Applications: Power PC/Workstation Servers CCTV DVR Security & Surveillance Systems NAS (Network Attached Storage) RAID System

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this work as a desktop Mac Pro hdd?**
A: Yes.  It's a SATA drive.  It will work as one of your internal drives on your Mac Pro.   You will only need to format using Disk Utility.  Very easy.

**Q: What is the default bytes per sector? I need 4k native sector size of unallocated/non-formatted disk to add mirror raid to existing 4k native drive.**
A: If you reformat the drive when you install it, it should be reformatted to the system which you are using and thus the configuration will be correct.

**Q: Does this work as a laptop hdd? planning to install in a vaio. thank you!**
A: The others are correct, it cannoot be used as an internal laptop hard drive.  This, and most internal hard drives can be made to work as an external hard drive using a USB adapter, but there's usually better solutions.  Most USB 2.0/3.0 adapters that interface with internal SATA and/or IDE drives draw their power from a 115VAC adapter (regular household plug here in the U.S.) and are primarily intended as a temporary solution for data transfer off a drive that came out of another PC or server.

Having said all that, I have several of these in the 3TB and 4TB size drives (ordered from another Amazon account) which I use primarily for software RAID ("Mirror" drives in Windows Disk Manager terminology), and one I use for multimedia in the laptop with a USB 3.0 IDE/SATA adapter.  It's not a very aesthetic solution, but it's cheap, works great, and I can output from the laptop to a large HDTV + stereo amp.

**Q: Work for gaming?**
A: You can absolutely use this to run games and I say this having done so myself. It would be a lie to say this is "incapable" of it, it preforms with my friends SSD's, albeit they aren't modern it's a pretty high-run drive. You can count on it to load fairly quick, It even loads Elden Ring in under 5 seconds for me. Never had an issue with it, but as other reviewers say, it's refurbished so quality may vary. I got this back in 2018 before HGST was bought out by WD.
