Synology HAT5300 Series 16TB 7200 RPM 3.5in Internal Enterprise Grade HDD

The Synology HAT5300-16TB is a high-capacity 3.5-inch SATA III hard disk drive engineered for enterprise, NAS, and server environments that demand both performance and reliability. Operating at 7,200 RPM and equipped with a 512 MB cache, this drive delivers sustained data transfer rates of up to ~262 MB/s for both read and write operations. It’s built for continuous 24/7 usage, with Synology rating it for 550 TB of data transfer per year and a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2.5 million hours. Other highlights include its buffer size, efficient power consumption (≈ 7.63 W when active, ≈ 4.00 W idle), robust environmental tolerances (operating temperature, shock, vibration), and a full 5-year limited warranty. Thanks to tight integration with Synology’s DSM software (firmware updates, RAID optimizations, drive health monitoring), the HAT5300-16TB is an excellent choice for demanding storage arrays, backup systems, high-density media servers, or video surveillance systems.
