Product Details of the Dell 5M5TD
The 5M5TD Dell 600GB 15K RPM SAS-6GBPS 2.5 Inch Form Factor Hot-plug Hard Drive is a high-performance storage device designed for enterprise-level applications that require fast and reliable data access. In this article, we will discuss the various features and benefits of this hard drive, as well as its compatibility with different systems.
Form Factor and Interface
The 5M5TD Dell hard drive has a 2.5-inch form factor, which makes it ideal for use in servers and other storage devices that require a small form factor. It also has a SAS-6GBPS interface, which enables it to transfer data at high speeds, up to 6 gigabits per second. The SAS interface is widely used in enterprise-level storage devices due to its reliability and high performance.
Storage Capacity and Speed
The 5M5TD Dell hard drive has a storage capacity of 600GB, which is suitable for storing large amounts of data such as databases, applications, and multimedia files. Additionally, it has a spindle speed of 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), which is much faster than traditional hard drives with speeds of 7,200 RPM or 5,400 RPM. The high spindle speed allows for faster data access and reduces the time it takes for applications to load and execute.
Hot-Pluggable Design
The 5M5TD Dell hard drive is designed to be hot-pluggable, which means it can be inserted and removed from a system without requiring a shutdown. This is particularly useful in enterprise-level systems that require continuous operation and minimal downtime. Hot-swapping also enables IT administrators to replace faulty hard drives without interrupting the system’s operation.
Compatibility
The 5M5TD Dell hard drive is compatible with a wide range of systems, including Dell PowerEdge servers, EqualLogic storage systems, and PowerVault storage systems. It also works with systems that support SAS interfaces and have a 2.5-inch drive bay. It is important to check the compatibility of the hard drive with the system before purchasing to ensure proper functioning.
Reliability and Durability
The 5M5TD Dell hard drive is designed to be reliable and durable, with a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 1.2 million hours. This means that the hard drive is expected to work without failure for an average of 1.2 million hours of operation. Additionally, the hard drive is built to withstand shock and vibration, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.
Data Protection Features
The 5M5TD Dell hard drive comes with several data protection features, including error correction codes (ECC) and self-encrypting drive (SED) technology. ECC helps to detect and correct errors that may occur during data transmission or storage, while SED technology protects data by encrypting it before storing it on the hard drive. These features help to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of data stored on the hard drive.
