[SOLVED] Help me identify my HGST drive

[Jassen]

So I have this HGST Deskstar NAS 4TB (HDN726040ALE614), on "https://www.westerndigital.com/support.hgst.internal-drives" cant really find my model the "HDN726040ALE614", it's all Deskstar 7K4000, Deskstar 7K1000.D, exc. Which one of these is my Drive? Do they have it in the products list at all?

All I found was this (Deskstar NAS):

If anything, it would be a 7K6000 series, although I have only found that designator in the Ultrastars.

Thanks for shedding some light on the subject. But how did you come to the conclusion that is 7K6000?

7K is the RPM while 6000 is the maximum capacity in GB. That seems to be the typical reasoning behind the nomenclature. Then you have Deskstar (HDS), Travelstar (HTS), Ultrastar (HUS), Deskstar NAS (HDN), etc.

BTW, I'm not saying that yours is a 7K6000, I'm merely suggesting that this would be a logical classification based on other families.

@fzabkar Thank you. Now things are a bit clearer.
