The 2H4231-150 Seagate EXOS X14 14TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB Buffer 512E 3.5inch Enterprise Hard Disk Drive is a high-performance, high-capacity storage solution for enterprise-grade systems and applications.
The drive has a storage capacity of 14 terabytes and a rotation speed of 7200 RPM. This provides faster data access times than slower-spinning drives, which can help improve the overall performance of the storage system.
The Storage uses the SAS-12GBPS interface, which is a 12 Gbps SAS interface that supports the latest generation of SAS-based storage solutions. This interface provides faster data transfer speeds than SAS-6GBPS and SAS-3GBPS interfaces, allowing for faster data access and better performance when working with large data sets or when multiple users are accessing the data simultaneously.
The drive is part of Seagate's Exos line of enterprise hard disk drives, which are designed to provide high-performance, high-reliability storage for data center and other demanding enterprise environments. The Exos X14 series of drives are optimized for high-density storage and high-performance data processing.
This HDD has a large cache buffer of 256MB which helps to improve the overall performance of the drive by allowing for faster data access and the drive is 512e formatted which means it uses 512 byte logical block size and 4096 byte physical block size. This allows for more efficient use of storage space and less overhead, which can result in improved performance.
The drive's form factor is 3.5 inches which is a standard size for enterprise hard disk drives.
Seagate EXOS X14 14TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB Buffer 512E 3.5inch Enterprise Hard Disk Drive is a high-performance, high-capacity storage solution for enterprise-grade systems and applications that require large amounts of storage and fast data access. It's optimized for high-density storage and high-performance data processing. The 512e format allows for more efficient use of storage space, and the large cache buffer improves the overall performance of the drive.
Exceptional CompatibilityThe Seagate EXOS X14 14TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB Buffer 512E 3.5-inch Enterprise Hard Disk Drive is compatible with servers and storage systems that support SAS 12 Gbps interfaces and have a SAS backplane or controller, and 3.5-inch LFF drive bay.
It is recommended that you check with your server or storage system vendor for specific compatibility information, as well as the firmware version of your SAS controller and ensure that the drive is supported by your RAID controller as well as the RAID level you are using.
The "512E" in the name refers to the 512 emulation feature, which allows the drive to work with systems that require a 512-byte sector size. The 256MB buffer is designed to help improve performance by allowing the drive to quickly access frequently-used data.
This is also important to note that this drive is designed for use in enterprise and data center environments, and may not be compatible with consumer-grade computer systems.
It is recommended to check the system documentation and ensure that the drive is supported by your RAID controller as well as the RAID level you are using.
The Exos X14 series is built specifically for enterprise-class storage, to provide high-performance, high-capacity, and high-reliability storage solutions.
High PerformanceThe Seagate EXOS X14 14TB SAS-12GBPS hard disk drive is designed to provide high performance in enterprise-level storage systems.
The drive uses the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which is a high-performance data transfer standard that is commonly used in enterprise storage systems. The drive also supports a data transfer rate of 12 Gbps, which is a fast data transfer rate that enables the drive to quickly transfer large amounts of data. This allows for faster data access, and improved overall system performance.
The Storage has a large capacity of 14TB, which provides ample storage space for large amounts of data. The 7.2K RPM spindle speed provides a balance of performance and energy efficiency. The drive also has a large buffer size of 256MB which allows for faster data access and improved overall system performance.
The drive is designed for 24x7x365 operation, and it is built to withstand high workloads and provide a high level of reliability. Additionally, it features advanced error correction, and it is designed to recover from errors without compromising data integrity.
The Seagate EXOS X14 14TB SAS-12GBPS hard disk drive is a high-performance and high-capacity storage solution that is well-suited for use in enterprise-level storage systems. The drive uses the SAS
