The Ultrastar HE12 comes equipped with Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) 12Gbps, a high-performance interface that enhances data transfer speeds and reliability. SAS technology is widely adopted in enterprise environments for its robustness and scalability. It allows for the connection of multiple hard drives to a single controller, enabling efficient data management in server setups.
One of the standout features of the Ultrastar HE12 is its colossal storage capacity. With 12 terabytes of space, this hard drive provides ample room for storing vast amounts of data. Whether it's large databases, multimedia content, or critical business applications, the HE12 ensures that you have the storage capacity you need for your enterprise.
Rotational Speed: 7200 RPMThe rotational speed of a hard drive is a crucial factor that directly impacts its performance. The Ultrastar HE12 operates at 7200 RPM, which translates to faster data access and shorter latency. This is particularly important in enterprise scenarios where quick access to data can make a significant difference in overall system efficiency.
High Data Transfer Rate: 12 Gigabits Per Second (GBPS)Fast data transfer is essential for optimal server performance, and the Ultrastar HE12 excels in this aspect with a data transfer rate of 12 gigabits per second (GBPS). This high-speed connectivity ensures that data can flow seamlessly between the hard drive and other components of the server, contributing to overall system efficiency.
Large Buffer Size: 256 Megabytes (MB)To further enhance its performance, the Ultrastar HE12 features a generous 256 megabytes (MB) buffer size. The buffer, also known as cache, plays a crucial role in temporarily storing data that is frequently accessed. A larger buffer size contributes to improved data transfer rates and overall responsiveness, especially in scenarios with intensive read and write operations.
Advanced Technology: 512E ISEThe Ultrastar HE12 incorporates advanced technology in the form of 512E ISE. This stands for 512 Emulation with Instant Secure Erase. The 512E format refers to the drive's ability to emulate 512-byte sectors while physically using 4K sectors. This technology is crucial for compatibility with legacy systems that may expect 512-byte sector sizes.
Helium Platform for EfficiencyInnovatively, the Ultrastar HE12 utilizes a Helium platform. Helium is used in place of air in the drive enclosure, reducing air resistance and enabling more platters to be installed. This, in turn, allows for higher storage capacities and improved energy efficiency. The Helium platform is a testament to Western Digital's commitment to pushing the boundaries of technology to deliver superior storage solutions.
Enterprise-Grade ReliabilityDesigned specifically for enterprise environments, the Ultrastar HE12 adheres to rigorous quality and reliability standards. It is built to operate 24/7, providing the durability and stability required for critical server applications. This enterprise-grade reliability ensures that businesses can depend on the Ultrastar HE12 for their data storage needs without compromising on performance.
