SAS Interface and Speed
Product Overview provides a general description of the Hitachi 4TB 7200RPM SAS 12GBPS 128MB SE Hard Drive (0F22815).
The Hitachi 4TB 7200RPM SAS 12GBPS 128MB SE Hard Drive is a high-performance hard drive designed for use in enterprise-class servers and storage systems. It has a capacity of 4TB, which is capable of storing a large amount of data. The hard drive has a 7200 RPM rotation speed and a 128MB buffer size, which provides fast data access and improved system performance. It uses SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which is a high-speed, serial data transfer interface designed for data storage applications. The hard drive also supports a maximum data transfer rate of 12 Gbps, which is the fastest data transfer rate available for SAS interface. The drive is built with security and data protection features such as Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) and TCG Enterprise support, making it a reliable and secure storage solution for sensitive data.
Power and Energy Efficiency
Power consumption is an important consideration for hard drives, particularly in data centers and other enterprise environments where multiple hard drives are in use. The 400-ALCK Dell 6TB SAS 12GBPS 7.2K RPM Poweredge and Powervault Hard Drive is designed to be power-efficient, which can help to reduce energy costs and improve overall system performance.
The drive uses a low power consumption design, which reduces the amount of power required to operate the drive. This can be achieved through various methods such as using low power consumption components, optimizing firmware and using advanced power management features.
The drive also supports a feature called "PowerChoice" which is a technique that allows the system to adjust the drive's power consumption based on the drive's workload. This means that when the drive is idle or has a light workload, it can reduce its power consumption. When the drive is busy and has a heavy workload, it can increase its power consumption to improve performance.
The drive also supports "Power Savings Mode" which is a technique that allows the drive to enter into a low power consumption state when it is not in use. This can help to reduce energy costs and improve system performance.
Workload and Reliability
Workload is the amount and type of data access and storage operations that a hard drive is expected to handle over a given period of time. Hard drives can be designed to handle different types of workloads, such as nearline, transactional or archival workloads.
The 400-ALCK Dell 6TB SAS 12GBPS 7.2K RPM Poweredge and Powervault Hard Drive is designed to handle nearline workloads. Nearline workloads refer to workloads where data is accessed less frequently than in a typical desktop or laptop computer. These drives are optimized for use in data centers and other enterprise environments where data is often stored for long periods of time and accessed occasionally.
Reliability is a measure of a hard drive's ability to retain data without failure and to perform its intended function over a specified period of time. Hard drives can be designed to handle different levels of reliability, such as enterprise-class, consumer-class or mission-critical.
The 400-ALCK Dell 6TB SAS 12GBPS 7.2K RPM Poweredge and Powervault Hard Drive is designed for enterprise-class reliability. This means that it is built to handle the demanding requirements of data centers and other enterprise environments. It has been designed to be highly durable and reliable, with features such as advanced error correction and handling, power-loss protection, and robust data encryption.

The Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard drives have become increasingly popular for their increasing use in high-end workstations and servers. These drives are employed in consumer desktops and modern servers for their speed and reliability. Enterprises have made the SAS hard drives their de-facto standard. Now, the 12Gbps speed throws the usefulness of these drives up a notch.
Most professional hosting providers now use SAS 12Gbps hard drives for data production. These drives have proven useful in high input/output operations and critical website functions. Users trust these drives because there is no risk of data loss, corruption, or downtime.
Faster Throughput
SAS 12Gbps drives read, write, and process data within split seconds. The latest 12Gbps disks use the latest RAID hardware technology to offer faster data transfer and recovery rates. They are perfect for sequential data, high workloads, and random IOPS alike.
This function allows them to be best suited for servers that have 100 percent duty cycles. They do not only work with desktops and PCs, but they can read/write data 24/7.
Higher Performance
SAS 12Gbps HDDs have received the utmost attention in the market as a result of their high performance. These performance benefits allow it to be useful for a wide variety of applications. For instance, a SAS 12Gbps connection can support up to four wide lanes per connection.
Connecting JBOD with these SAS drives can support up to 1200MB/s. These high-performance drives do not only help handle large workloads; they also offer cost-effective expansion to an already robust system.
Also, each 12Gbps high-performance SAS drive can offer users a rotational speed of up to 15000 rpm.
They provide a great bandwidth enough to perform efficiently. The robust performance of SAS 12Gbps drives clearly a worthy investment for improved performance of servers and desktops. They provide very large amounts of storage options and are a cost-effective choice for users.
Utmost Flexibility
Flexibility is one of the best benefits of SAS 12Gbps drives. These drives have configured flexibility, which allows them to work perfectly with several devices without modification or changes. Many of them feature a Universal Serial controller for seamless system support.
SAS 12Gbps hard drives can also be partitioned into a storage pool and assigned to servers for work-intensive applications. They are a perfect fit for server systems, including reservation systems, medical imaging, and more!
Only this range of SAS hard drives can provide users with the best worlds of flexibility. This way, allows them to support use with other drives.
Increased Availability
12Gbps SAS-based storage systems have the benefit of dual-port capability. This allows them to provide a redundant path to the drives in case of controller failover. These drives also operate on separate point-to-point connections. That way, it is rare for drive connection loss to affect them.
SAS 12Gbps HDDs are built to handle the rigours of heavy workloads and enterprise use. They also safeguard data integrity, thanks to their ability to comprehensively verify data and correct errors.Warranty
