Accelerate Your Data
Double the Performance of Data-Intensive Applications
What is MACH.2?
The world’s first multi-actuator hard drive contains two independent actuators that transfer the data concurrently. Now, hyperscale data centers can access performance gains without sacrifices in latency thanks to MACH.2™.
DOUBLE THE PERFORMANCE
OPTIMAL LATENCY
MAXIMIZED DRIVE UTILIZATION
MACH.2: The Perfect Fit for Data-Intensive Applications
The Performance Advantage
Two parallel data flows equal effective capacity utilization.
