面對資料爆炸，Western Digital Ultrastar® DC HC690 提供高達 32TB 容量，提升儲存密度。此款高容量硬碟專為超大規模雲端服務供應商設計，是 AI 資料經濟的可靠支柱
隨著資料量以指數型成長加速，如何在不增加實體空間的前提下擴展儲存容量，是資料中心面臨的最大挑戰。為此，Western Digital 推出的關鍵產品創新之一Ultrastar® DC HC690 資料中心硬碟。這是全球首款配備 11 碟片硬碟的商用 SMR HDD，可提供高達 32TB1（SMR）容量，結合經過實地驗證的設計與最新創新技術，使資料中心能在既有基礎架構內達到更高的儲存密度。
Western Digital 站在高容量企業級儲存技術的前緣，提供兼具創新性、可擴充性與成本效益的強大組合。透過在儲存技術上的持續突破，Western Digital 以超過 4,500 項現行專利、七個國際研發中心，以及涵蓋伺服機構、磁性材料、材料科學與系統設計的深厚技術專業，奠定其在全球的領先地位，並持續開創全新且專有的技術。
Western Digital 的硬碟產品組合，包括 Ultrastar® DC HC690 等 ，以ePMR、OptiNAND™與UltraSMR等創新技術為基礎，為客戶提供無與倫比的總擁有成本（TCO）、經過驗證的可靠性以及無縫的擴充能力。這些創新成為在快速演進的資料環境中，使 Western Digital 保有獨特競爭力的核心差異化優勢。
專為超大規模雲端服務供應商與大數據應用打造
Ultrastar® DC HC690 專為超大規模雲端服務供應商（Hyperscalers）、大數據應用、AI 訓練資料池、雲端回歸資料池、雲端服務供應商以及融合基礎架構所設計。
Ultrastar® DC HC690 的主要產品特色包含——在不增加儲存裝置佔用實體空間的前提下，提供高儲存容量以提升儲存密度、維持經過實地驗證的硬體設計所帶來的卓越可靠性、工作負載為550TB/年，並具備高達 250 萬小時平均故障間隔時間（MTBF）2。此硬碟採用HelioSeal®技術，使這款高容量氦氣硬碟能提供業界最低的功耗之一。
透過 ePMR、UltraSMR、HelioSeal® 與旋轉振動保護（RVS）等創新技術，Ultrastar® DC HC690 不僅強化 Western Digital 在 TCO、可預測性與可擴充性方面的領導地位，也同步支持其永續發展目標。
AI 資料經濟的支柱
在 AI、雲端運算與大量資料應用迅速崛起的環境下，客戶需要能以可預測且永續方式擴展的儲存解決方案。身為全球 HDD 製造的領導者，且是其更廣泛策略的一環，Western Digital 的硬碟產品（包含Ultrastar® DC HC690）皆以支援 AI、雲端與邊緣運算持續演進的工作負載為設計核心，從Petabyte（PB） 到 Exabyte（EB）級規模，致力於提供兼具容量、可靠性與創新的業界領先解決方案，這些要素皆對企業級與雲端規模環境至關重要。
目前，Western Digital 出貨至資料中心的硬碟（以EB為單位計算）當中，近半數採用 SMR 技術，突顯市場對UltraSMR的高度信任。結合OptiNAND™ 技術與ePMR經驗證的能源輔助效能，這些解決方案讓客戶得以無縫邁向更高容量，無論是持續採用ePMR或未來導入像是 HAMR 的創新技術。
除了技術創新之外，Western Digital 亦致力於提供具永續性的儲存解決方案，並特別著重於能源效率與環境責任。因應硬碟中稀土元素（REEs）的使用，Western Digital 率先推動創新的回收計畫。透過與微軟和 Critical Materials Recycling 等合作夥伴合作，Western Digital 開發了可從使用壽命結束的 HDD 回收稀土與其他貴重材料的環保流程，顯著降低對環境的影響並支持循環經濟。
Western Digital 的 HDD 是全球最大資料基礎架構的支柱，提供無與倫比的 TCO、海量容量與具規模化的企業級可靠性。憑藉在次世代創新、永續性與營運卓越方面的專注，Western Digital 持續是全球超大規模雲端服務供應商、資料中心、消費者與內容創作者的可信賴合作夥伴，助力全球資料的流動、擷取、儲存並釋放其價值。
支撐此能力的核心在於其高容量的硬碟產品組合，包含Ultrastar® DC HC690。HDD 是具擴充性 AI 解決方案值得信賴的基礎，能無縫整合至以最佳效能、經濟性與可靠性為目標所打造的各種規模系統之中。
在今年的賽事中，專注於海洋生態的團隊「BlueTrend」透過結合 AI 與數據庫的潛水旅遊平台獲得肯定，並獲頒「vivo 智慧共創應用獎」，獲獎團隊將採用 vivo X300 旗艦手機作為影像紀錄工具，利用其蔡司光學系統與 AI 運算能力，協助建立更完整的海洋生物資料庫。
本次 vivo 參與的「智在家鄉」競賽已邁入第八屆，該競賽的核心理念在於鼓勵社會大眾利用數位科技解決家鄉面臨的實際問題，並提出具備社會影響力的解決方案。因應近年來 AI、混合實境（MR）與影像技術的快速發展，行動影像的體驗正逐漸從單純追求畫質清晰，轉向高互動性與沉浸式的方向發展。基於這樣的技術趨勢，vivo 與聯發科技決定將雙方在硬體與軟體上的合作默契，進一步擴展至社會創新層面，期望透過企業資源的整合，協助具備潛力的創新團隊將構想落地，加速優質的解決方案進入實際應用階段。
今年度的競賽特別升級推出了「影響力加速計畫」，旨在提升入圍作品的能見度與應用潛能。在眾多參賽隊伍中，共有 18 組團隊在歷經兩個月的專業輔導後脫穎而出。評審團最終選出多項大獎，其中備受矚目的「vivo 智慧共創應用獎」由「BlueTrend」團隊獲得。該團隊所開發的項目，是一個以 AI 技術與數據驅動為核心的永續潛水旅遊平台。針對目前潛水旅遊產業缺乏系統化資訊整合的狀況，BlueTrend 採取平台化策略，試圖解決產業痛點並提升整體運營效率，同時推動海洋旅遊朝向永續發展的模式前進。
BlueTrend 平台的一項關鍵功能，在於運用 AI 圖像辨識技術來輔助用戶辨識海洋生物。對於一般潛水愛好者而言，在水下看見生物卻無法辨識是常見的困擾，而透過此平台的技術輔助，用戶能夠準確獲取海洋生物的知識，進而從單純的觀光體驗，轉化為對地方海洋生命的深入認識與情感連結。這種將科技應用於環境議題回應的做法，將潛水活動轉化為海洋教育的起點，符合競賽對於以行動實踐社會創新的期待。
為了支持這類以科技回應社會需求的創新行動，vivo 提供總價值新台幣 20 萬元的 vivo X300 旗艦手機給予獲獎團隊使用，vivo X300 具備與蔡司合作研發的影像系統以及 AI 處理能力，能夠在光線複雜的水下環境或戶外場景中，提供清晰的影像紀錄功能。對於 BlueTrend 團隊而言，這款手機將不僅是用於聯繫的通訊工具，更將成為紀錄海洋生態影像、建構生物辨識資料庫的重要輔助器材，協助團隊捕捉更豐富的海洋故事。
vivo 行銷總監劉宥樺針對此次合作表示，科技發展的初衷應是以人為本，並成為改善生活的力量。智慧型手機作為現代人隨身攜帶的裝置，具備成為創新工具的潛力。對於 BlueTrend 團隊來說，透過手機鏡頭紀錄旅遊影像的同時，也能執行傳遞海洋教育的任務。未來 vivo 計畫持續投入跨領域的合作，支持更多具備社會價值的創新實踐，讓技術資源能夠轉化為具體的影響力，協助各類社會創新團隊實現願景。
