Whether you’re expanding a private cloud or supporting a hyperscale environment, the Data60 is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing storage controllers and Ultrastar drive families, delivering a dependable backbone for your data infrastructure.

  • 60-bay density in a single 4U chassis: maximize storage capacity in your data center by consolidating a large number of drives into an efficient, space-saving enclosure. This high-density design reduces cabling complexity and conserves rack space, helping you achieve lower overall data-center footprint while still meeting growing data requirements.
  • 12Gb/s SAS backplane for fast, compatible data transfers: the enclosure uses a 12Gb/s SAS interface to deliver high-throughput performance and broad compatibility with contemporary storage controllers, JBOD hubs, and Ultrastar drives. This ensures you can deploy today’s fastest storage solutions while maintaining room to evolve as your workloads grow.
  • Front-access, hot-swappable bays for minimal downtime: designed with enterprise uptime in mind, the Data60 supports hot-swapping of drives to simplify maintenance, replacements, and upgrades without significant service interruptions. This capability is essential for backups, cold storage, and archival workflows where constant availability matters.
  • Rugged, professional black enclosure built for data centers: the durable chassis is engineered to withstand demanding environments, with attention to airflow, cooling efficiency, and ease of installation. The sleek black finish integrates well into standard server rooms and data-center racks, presenting a clean and professional appearance alongside reliable performance.
  • Designed for Ultrastar compatibility and scalable architectures: the Data60 is aligned with HGST Ultrastar drive families and a wide range of storage architectures, enabling seamless integration with existing controllers, management software, and enterprise storage ecosystems. Its flexible design supports growing workloads—from virtualization and databases to large-scale backups and archives.

How to install HGST Ultrastar Data60 Drive Enclosure

Installing the Data60 is a straightforward process when planned as part of your rack deployment. The following steps outline a generic setup approach suitable for most enterprise data centers, emphasizing safety, airflow, and compatibility with your storage controllers.

  • Prepare the rack and rails: verify that you have an appropriate 19-inch rack, confirm the weight-bearing capacity, and assemble the mounting rails per the manufacturer’s instructions. Align the rails carefully to ensure smooth insertion of the enclosure and prevent misalignment during installation.
  • Mount the enclosure: slide the Data60 into the rack, verifying alignment with the rack rails. Secure the chassis with mounting screws at the front of the rack and ensure there is adequate clearance behind for rear cabling and airflow.
  • Connect power and cooling: connect redundant power supplies if available, and ensure that the enclosure’s cooling system is properly engaged. Verify that fans operate normally during initial power-up and that airflow paths remain unobstructed to maximize cooling efficiency.
  • Attach data connections: connect SAS cables from the enclosure’s backplane to your storage controller or JBOD solution. Route cables to minimize bending radii and avoid interference with other equipment, maintaining clear pathways for airflow and maintenance access.
  • Power up and configure: power on the system and enter your storage management software or controller interface to recognize the enclosure. Check for firmware updates, verify drive bays are detected, and configure RAID or JBOD settings as needed through your controller’s management tools. Validate monitoring and alerting are enabled to track temperature, drive health, and enclosure status.

Great toy for both inside & outside play!
Color: Pink, Size: 3 Inch, Color: Pink, Size: 3 Inch
My Yorkies love this toy! This is my 3rd purchase of the same type of ball - the small 3" JW Pet HOL-lee ball. I bought one for my first Yorkie, she loved it, so when I got another Yorkie puppy, I bought a 2nd. They play with them so much that they sometimes get left outside. The green one was faded and started to blend it with the grass, so I bought a new one. It's great for a game of fetch, and isneasy to wash. Wish I could select a specific color, as I'd really like a purple one.

Great indoors and out.
Color: Blue, Size: 4.5 Inch
This is a great toy if your dog likes balls. While it's not my dog's favorite (he favors small squeaky animals) it is safe indoors, soft on floor, walls and furniture and something durable for fetching.

Terrific for fetch, would not hold up to unmonitored chewing
Color: Colors May Vary, Size: 5.5 Inch
Fabulous for playing fetch. Young crazy-dog enjoys it! Would not hold up to using as a chew toy - we remove it when not playing with the dog.

Gave my dog an allergic reaction
Color: Blue, Size: 4.5 Inch
I have one that has lasted 2 years of hard play, very durable. However, this newest one in the teal color gave my dog an allergic reaction. Her face and eyes swelled up within 1/2 of playing with it. So I threw it out. I have had no issues with the green one that I bought yesterday ago.
