The Dell 400-BKZM 18TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive is a high-performance, high-capacity hard drive designed for use in enterprise-level storage systems and servers. This drive is similar to the Dell 400-BKZK that I mentioned earlier, but with some slight differences.
This drive has a capacity of 18TB, which allows for large amounts of data to be stored, while the SAS interface and 7200 RPM speed provide fast data transfer speeds and high performance. The 12 Gbps SAS interface allows for fast communication between the hard drive and the host server, allowing for quick data access and retrieval.
Like the 400-BKZK, the hot-plug capability enables the hard drive to be removed and replaced without having to shut down the system, providing increased uptime and reducing downtime for maintenance.
HDD is also backwards compatible with 6 Gbps SAS and 3 Gbps SAS, which allows the drive to be used in older systems while still taking advantage of the increased performance of the 12 Gbps SAS interface.
The Dell 18TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive is a high-performance and reliable option for enterprise storage and servers that require large amounts of storage and high performance, similar to the 400-BKZK. The only difference between these two drives would be the part number and some vendor specific features.
Backup & Restore FacilitiesThe Dell 18TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive can be used as a backup and restore device for data stored on servers and storage systems. The large storage capacity of 18TB makes it suitable for large data storage, archiving, backup and nearline storage.
To backup data, you can use software such as Windows Backup, Acronis, Veeam or other backup software that support SAS interface, and schedule regular backups to the hard drive.
To restore data, you can use the software's restore function to select the specific files or data you need to restore and then restore them to the original location or a different location.
It's important to ensure that the backup and restore process is working correctly and that your data is recoverable before it's too late. It is also important to have a proper disaster recovery plan in place and test it regularly to ensure that you can quickly restore your data in case of a disaster.
It's also worth noting that the "Hot-Plug" feature allows the drive to be replaced without having to power down the system, which can be useful for ensuring minimal interruption during a restore process.
Performance & ReliabilityThe Dell 18TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive is designed to provide high reliability in enterprise-level storage systems.
This Storage drive is designed for 24x7x365 operation, meaning it is built to withstand high workloads and provide a high level of reliability. Additionally, it features advanced error correction, which helps to recover from errors without compromising data integrity.
The drive is also hot-plug capable, which means it can be removed and replaced while the system is still running, allowing for easy maintenance and upgrades without interrupting the normal operation of the system. This feature helps to minimize downtime, which is especially important in environments where uptime is critical.
The HDD uses the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which is a high-performance data transfer standard that is commonly used in enterprise storage systems. SAS is known for its reliability and performance, and it is often used in mission-critical applications.
In summary, the Dell 18TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive is designed to provide high reliability and performance in enterprise-level storage systems. The drive's advanced error correction, 24x7x365 operation, hot-plug capability and use of SAS interface make it suitable for critical applications where downtime needs to be minimized.
