Synology HAS5300-8T – dependable SAS storage for NAS
We recommend the Synology HAS5300-8T for enterprise NAS users who need reliable, high-capacity storage. Its firmware is optimised for critical workloads and can help Synology systems repair degraded RAID arrays faster.
Key specifications at a glance
| Metric | Specification |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 8 TB |
| Drive format | 3.5-inch HDD |
| Interface | SAS, 12 Gbit/s |
| Rotational speed | 7,200 RPM |
| Sustained transfer rate | 230 MiB/s |
| Workload rate limit | 550 TB per year |
Built for demanding NAS workloads
The HAS5300-8T supports workloads of up to 550 TB per year. This makes it suited to storage environments with sustained read and write activity. Its 256 MB buffer also supports data handling during operation.
Synology reports that HAS5300 drives can help its systems repair degraded RAID arrays up to 27% faster than similar-class drives of the same capacity. This can help reduce the time a RAID array spends rebuilding.
SAS performance for Synology systems
The low-latency SAS interface offers a transfer rate of 12 Gbit/s. The drive is designed for Synology SA and UC series solutions, where SAS storage supports high-performance, scalable deployments.
Synology also validates the drives on its hardware. Firmware updates are delivered with DSM updates, helping IT teams keep drive firmware current as part of system maintenance.
Designed for sustained operation
The drive has a mean time to failure (MTTF) of 2.5 million hours. This is a reliability measure, not a prediction of an individual drive’s lifespan. Synology also includes persistent write cache technology to help safeguard data integrity.
Power consumption is 9.87 W during read or write activity and 6.62 W when idle. The drive operates from 5°C to 60°C.
Check fit and system support
- Confirm your NAS supports 3.5-inch SAS hard drives.
- Check that your NAS model supports the HAS5300-8T.
- Confirm your system has a compatible SAS interface.
- Check that 8 TB suits your storage capacity requirements.
