The 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive is a high-capacity storage device designed for use in enterprise-class server systems. This hard drive offers 8 terabytes of storage space, making it ideal for storing large amounts of data, such as databases, media files, and other types of business-critical information. In this article, we will explain in detail the technical specifications of the 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive, including its rotational speed, interface, and buffer size.
CapacityThe 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive has a storage capacity of 8 terabytes, which is equivalent to 8000 gigabytes. This makes it one of the largest hard drives available on the market today. With this amount of storage space, the 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive is ideal for businesses and organizations that require high-capacity storage solutions.
Rotational SpeedThe rotational speed of a hard drive refers to how quickly the disk inside the drive spins. The 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive has a rotational speed of 7.2K RPM, which means that the disk inside the drive rotates 7,200 times per minute. This high rotational speed allows for faster read and write times, which is essential in enterprise-class server systems where speed and efficiency are critical.
InterfaceThe 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive uses a SATA-6Gbps interface, which is a standard interface for connecting hard drives to computer systems. SATA-6Gbps is a newer and faster version of the SATA interface and is capable of delivering data transfer speeds of up to 6 gigabits per second. This high-speed interface ensures that data can be transferred quickly and efficiently between the hard drive and the computer system.
512E FormatThe 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive uses the 512E format, which stands for 512-byte emulation. This format is used to make hard drives backward compatible with older systems that use a different sector size. The 512E format allows the hard drive to emulate the 512-byte sector size used in older systems while still using a larger, more efficient 4K sector size.
128MB BufferThe 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive has a buffer size of 128 megabytes. The buffer, also known as the cache, is used to temporarily store data that is being read from or written to the hard drive. The larger the buffer size, the more data that can be stored and accessed quickly, which can improve the overall performance of the hard drive.
3.5-Inch Form FactorThe 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive has a 3.5-inch form factor, which is a standard size for enterprise-class hard drives. This size is larger than the 2.5-inch form factor used in laptop hard drives but allows for higher capacity and faster performance.
In summary, the 400-AKWX Dell 8TB hard drive is a high-capacity storage device designed for use in enterprise-class server systems. It offers 8 terabytes of storage space, a rotational speed of 7.2K RPM, a SATA-6Gbps interface, a 512E format, a 128MB buffer, and a 3.5-inch form factor. These technical specifications make it an ideal storage solution for businesses and organizations that require high-capacity, high-performance storage for their critical data.
