The Dell 342-1814 is a 600GB SAS hard disk drive designed for use in Dell PowerEdge servers or other compatible server systems that support SAS drives. The drive has a spindle speed of 15,000 RPM, making it suitable for high-performance applications that require low latency and fast access times. In this article, we will take a closer look at the Dell 342-1814 and its features.
SAS InterfaceSAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a high-speed interface used for connecting storage devices, such as hard disk drives and solid-state drives, to servers and other computer systems. SAS is a successor to the earlier SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) standard and provides faster data transfer rates, better reliability, and greater scalability.
The Dell 342-1814 hard disk drive uses the SAS interface, which provides a maximum data transfer rate of 3Gbps (Gigabits per second). This high-speed interface enables the drive to deliver fast data access times, making it suitable for high-performance applications such as databases, virtualization, and online transaction processing.
Spindle SpeedThe spindle speed of a hard disk drive refers to the rate at which the disk platters rotate. The faster the spindle speed, the faster the drive can access data stored on the disk. The Dell 342-1814 has a spindle speed of 15,000 RPM, which is among the highest spindle speeds available for hard disk drives. This makes the drive ideal for applications that require high-speed data access, such as database servers or online transaction processing systems.
Drive CapacityThe Dell 342-1814 has a storage capacity of 600GB, which is a large amount of storage space for a hard disk drive. This makes the drive suitable for storing large amounts of data, including databases, multimedia files, and virtual machine images. The drive's large capacity also means that it can be used as a primary storage device, rather than just for backup or archive storage.
Form FactorThe Dell 342-1814 has a form factor of 3.5 inches, which is the standard size for hard disk drives used in servers and other enterprise-level computer systems. The 3.5-inch form factor provides a larger surface area for the disk platters, which allows for greater storage capacity and faster data transfer rates.
Hot Swap CapabilityThe Dell 342-1814 is a hot-swappable hard disk drive, which means that it can be removed and replaced without shutting down the server or disrupting its operation. This feature allows for easy maintenance and upgrades, as well as reducing the risk of data loss due to drive failure.
In Summary, the Dell 342-1814 is a high-performance hard disk drive designed for use in enterprise-level server systems. Its 600GB storage capacity, 15,000 RPM spindle speed, and SAS interface make it ideal for applications that require fast data access and high reliability, such as databases, virtualization, and online transaction processing systems. Its 3.5-inch form factor and hot-swappable design make it easy to install and maintain, while its compatibility with Dell PowerEdge servers ensures seamless integration with existing systems.
