Backblaze Drive Stats for 2021
- DreamFlasher 5y agoEspecially the WUH721816ALE6L0 looks interesting, but I can't find any info on the HD at western digital. For the WD Ultrastar DC HC550 (https://www.westerndigital.com/de-de/products/internal-drives/data-center-drives/ultrastar-dc-hc550-hdd https://www.westerndigital.com/de-de/products/internal-drive...) they only list the WUH721816ALE6L4 and WUH721816ALE6L1 which would match the size. Is the L0 correct and how does it differ from L1/L4?
- andy4blaze 5y agoAndy from Backblaze here: The WDC model (WUH721816ALE6L0) seems to only be available in Europe, not the US. It was 549,00 EUR last time I looked back in November. I believe the last digit is about data erasure with 0 being "Instant Secure Erase", 1 being Bulk Data Encryption (SATA), 4 being Secure Erase (overwrite only). We only have reliability data for the model listed.
