Designed for enterprise use, it ensures compatibility with various systems while passing rigorous quality tests, making it a perfect choice for professionals seeking dependable storage solutions. ## Description Enterprise class, 7200 RPM, 2TB drive for high-capacity nearline environments, Heavy Duty Enhancing data safety and security To ensure the utmost in data safety and security, the Ultrastar A7K3000 is also available with a bulk data encryption (BDE) option. When enabled, the Hitachi BDE implementation encrypts all data on the drive using a private security key as it is written to the disk, and then decrypts it with the key as it is retrieved, giving users an extreme level of data protection. Unlike softwarebased encryption solutions, the Hitachi BDE implementation is hardware-based, so it doesn’t slow the system down. This technology also speeds up and simplifies the drive re-deployment and decommissioning process. By deleting the encryption key, the data is rendered unreadable, thereby eliminating the need for time-consuming, multi-pattern data overwrite. Delivering industry-leading reliability With a robust fourth-generation mechanical design, Ultrastar A7K3000 is specifically built and tested for the enterprise. The Ultrastar SATA drive family features Hitachi-patented Rotational Vibration Safeguard (RVS) sensor technology, which optimizes drive reliability in multi-drive RAID arrays and rack-mounted systems. Backed by a one-year warranty, the Ultrastar platform has earned Hitachi a reputation among server and storage vendors as a global partner dedicated to delivering the highest quality and reliability in the industry. Applications: Power PC/Workstation/Servers CCTV DVR Security & Surveillance Systems NAS, RAID Storage Review: Excellent value for a backup drive. - Some commenters have rightly questioned the wisdom of running a refurbished drive without clear history as a storage device for a live computer. I personally would not do that other than in a RAID system. I bought one of these refurbished Untrastar 2 TB drives to use as a third backup set. My other two backups are also 2 TB Ultrastars for which I gladly paid close to $200 each a couple of years ago. I believe that having multiple redundant "air gapped" backups is especially important with the recent rise in "ransomware" attacks that hit every storage device attached to a computer. I was hesitant to buy this drive based on the principle that it looked too good to be true. But I risked less than $50, and I am not disappointed in any way. This drive will sit in my safe most of the time, coming out about once per week to touch up the backup set with my latest files. My five-star rating is provisional because I have spun up this drive only once. I initialized and formatted it on my Windows 10 machine, and ran a complete backup of the three volumes (all SSD) in the box. The OS has reported no errors on the drive. It runs very quiet, and write performance over a USB 3 to SATA adapter was as I expected. Should the drive start giving me problems over the next two, three, or several years I may revise the score downward. For now I have no reason to give it less than a top score. Three backup sets provides me significantly more peace of mind than two did. Review: One of the most reliable drives from the best manufacturer you can buy from. - 2 & 4 TB models of this HGST Ultrastar 7k3000 drive are very reliable as-per Back-Blaze stats on drive reliability. These drives have on average a 0.6%~1.4% failure rate annually, where competing drives from Seagate have up to a 24~36% annual failure rate. Recent higher-capacity Seagate drives are faring a little better though I've already sworn them off. Western Digital generally always is less than 10% and around 4~6% nominally. Toshiba is usually around what Western Digital is in reliability for hard drives. Western Digital owns Hitachi and has formed the HGST corp. now. Thankfully, HGST quality is still stellar, and thank goodness. If you value your data, buy HGST. Other hard drive prices are meaningless. HGST is the Toyota of HDD's. Good speed and once it spun up the 1st time and ran it's internet checks and calibrations it didn't make any funny noises, and it's a fairly quiet drive (I have rubber washers as it's mounting, and I can't hear it with the case-door closed on a fairly quiet tower, a silent machine you'd still hear it though). Good drive, just happy to have one that worked. I had previously bought a 7k2000 2tb drive that was DOA from another vendor last year. This 7k3000 is great though. It's not the newest model, so if you want faster, they make 4000 and even newer series out there to look at. Naturally, larger drives with more platters will be quicker due to simultaneous reads/writes speed improvement. Drive had 0 hours on it when installed. This is great, a new drive if so; or the SMART data tables were cleaned prior to shipment (which is proper for a re-certified drive). Either way, I don't mind; supposedly has a year of warranty on it, that's fine too. It just needs to work and hold data when I need it to. Not used as a system or OS drive, just for backups to be unhooked when not in use. I hope some of this is helpful! ## Features - This Certified Refurbished product is tested and inspected to look and work like-new, with limited to no signs of wear.

I hope some of this is helpful! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works, you get what you pay for *by D***G on January 28, 2022* I've been using it as a secondary storage drive since a few months now and it works great, storage is as advertised. Read/write speed is pretty good. It's loud, and clunky sounding, that might be because of the way they refurbished it. To those saying the counter reports 0 hours of use, that counter was reset. Let me be clear, this IS a heavily used hard drive. You must back up your data, don't rely solely on this for any extended period of time, the recovery will be costly. You get what you pay for, that's why it's so cheap. The price is right. Back it up when you can. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hitachi Ultrastar A7K3000 2TB HUA723020ALA641 (0F12470) 2TB 64MB Cache 7200RPM SATA III (6.0Gb/s) Enterprise 3.5in Hard Drive (Renewed) - BENFEI SATA Cable III, 3 Pack SATA Cable III 6Gbps Straight HDD SDD Data Cable with Locking Latch 18 Inch Compatible for SATA HDD, SSD, CD Driver, CD Writer - Black - Seagate BarraCuda 2TB Internal Hard Drive HDD – 3.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 7200 RPM 256MB Cache – Frustration Free Packaging (ST2000DM008/ST2000DMZ08) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/27882470-hitachi-ultrastar-a7k3000-2tb-hua723020ala641-0f12470-2tb-64mb-cache-7200rpm](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/27882470-hitachi-ultrastar-a7k3000-2tb-hua723020ala641-0f12470-2tb-64mb-cache-7200rpm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
