The Cheetah NS drive has been developed for Network Storage applications where the highest available storage capacity and the lowest power consumption combine to deliver the industry’s best $/GB and GB/Watt value in Enterprise Mission Critical storage. The Cheetah NS drive provides Enterprise Mission Critical storage with best-in-class capacity and demonstrates better IOPS performance than standard 3.5 inch 10K rpm drives.

Best-Fit Applications

  • Network attached storage
  • High-capacity, performance and application servers
  • Clustered systems
  • Medical imaging, CAD, simulation
  • Rich media content storage—audio, video, image
  • Collaboration—email, messaging
  • Infrastructure—web, print, file

Key Features and Benefits 

Compared to current 10K rpm MC drives:

  • Perpendicular recording with 33% higher capacity
  • More than 25% power savings
  • Better sequential and random performance
  • BIC reliability rating
