About this item

Overview

The HGST Ultrastar He8 is a helium-filled 8 TB enterprise hard drive engineered for demanding 24/7 data center workloads. The HelioSeal platform reduces internal drag, runs cooler and quieter than air-filled drives, and delivers a 2.5M-hour MTBF rating - making it a proven choice for NAS enclosures, SAN arrays, and homelab storage builds alike.

How we test used storage drives

This describes our testing process. Contact us for available unit-specific results before ordering.

  1. Step 1
    SMART health review

    Reallocated, pending and uncorrectable sector counters read from the drive itself.

  2. Step 2
    Extended self-test

    The drive's own long self-test, run to completion.

  3. Step 3
    Power-on hours cross-check

    Hours compared against the drive's internal logs. We never reset counters.

  4. Step 4
    Wiped

    All previous data is wiped and the wipe is verified.

  5. Step 5
    Tamper seal and certificate

    Sealed after testing with a numbered tamper-evident seal. Its QR code and the certificate in the box open this exact unit's report.

Condition notes

This drive is used and fully tested. SMART long self-test passed. No reallocated sectors or pending uncorrectable errors were detected during testing. The drive is mechanically sound and ready for deployment. Normal cosmetic wear from prior datacenter use may be present on the exterior.
