Drive Specifications
*All specifications above are based on native configurations.
** One GB equals one billion bytes and 1TB equals one trillion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on
operating environment and formatting.
*** During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T. specification, which may increase acoustic and power to
operational levels.

Rated workload
Average rate of <180TB/year. The AFR specification for the drive assumes the I/O workload does not
exceed the average annualized workload rate limit of 180TB/year. Workloads exceeding the
annualized rate may degrade the drive AFR and impact product reliability. The average annualized
workload rate limit is in units of TB per year, or TB per 8760 power-on hours. Workload rate limit = TB
transferred × (8760/recorded power-on hours).
