Cisco UCS-HD16TW7KL4KN= 16TB 12G SAS HDD | 7,200 RPM Enterprise — UCS-HD16TW7KL4KN=

Add high-capacity storage to Cisco infrastructure with a 16 TB 3.5-inch SAS hard drive engineered for enterprise server use. With 12G SAS connectivity and a 7,200 RPM spindle speed, this drive is designed for workloads that need dependable throughput, broad compatibility, and efficient capacity scaling. The large form factor makes it a strong fit for storage tiers where density and economics matter more than flash-level latency. It is well suited to backup repositories, file services, archival tiers, and general-purpose data storage in systems that still rely on mechanical media for cost-effective expansion. For procurement teams, this drive offers a straightforward way to extend usable capacity without moving to a more expensive flash tier. For infrastructure teams, it provides a familiar SAS deployment model that integrates cleanly into enterprise server environments and supports predictable long-term storage planning. Ideal For Backup and recovery repositories in Cisco server environments Capacity tiers for file and object storage workloads Archival storage for long-retention enterprise data General-purpose bulk storage in SAS-based servers Why This Product 1 Higher capacity than typical 8 TB or 10 TB enterprise HDDs 2 Faster interface than 6G SAS drives for compatible systems 3 Lower cost per terabyte than SSD-based capacity tiers 4 3.5 in LFF design maximizes storage density in server bays
