The 342-1815 Dell 600GB 15K RPM 16MB SAS-3GBPS 3.5 Inch LFF HDD With Tray is a high-performance hard disk drive designed for enterprise-level servers and storage systems. In this article, we will go into detail about the various components and specifications of this hard drive.
Design and Form FactorThe Dell 342-1815 hard drive has a 3.5-inch large form factor (LFF) and a weight of approximately 1.5 pounds. It is designed to be used in server racks and storage systems with SAS-3Gbps interfaces. The drive has a spindle speed of 15,000 RPM, which is significantly faster than most consumer-level hard drives that operate at 7,200 RPM. The faster spindle speed of this hard drive is critical for high-performance applications that require quick access to data.
Capacity and InterfaceThe 342-1815 Dell hard drive has a storage capacity of 600GB, which is large enough to store a vast amount of data. This capacity is suitable for applications that require large amounts of data storage, such as databases, video surveillance systems, and cloud storage solutions.
The hard drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which provides high-speed data transfer rates of up to 3Gbps. The SAS interface is commonly used in enterprise-level storage systems due to its reliability, scalability, and performance.
Buffer Size and Seek TimeThe 342-1815 Dell hard drive has a 16MB buffer size, which is the amount of memory used to temporarily store data before it is written to or read from the disk. The buffer size is an essential component of a hard drive as it can significantly impact the performance of the drive. A larger buffer size can help improve data transfer rates, reduce seek times, and improve overall performance.
The seek time of this hard drive is 3.5ms, which is the time taken by the drive to locate data on the disk. A lower seek time is desirable as it can help reduce latency and improve performance.
Compatibility and Hot-SwappingThe 342-1815 Dell hard drive is compatible with a wide range of Dell PowerEdge servers and storage systems. It is essential to check the compatibility of the drive with your server or storage system before purchasing it. The drive comes with a tray that can be used to mount it securely in a server or storage system.
The hard drive is designed to support hot-swapping, which means that it can be replaced while the server or storage system is still running. This feature can help minimize downtime and ensure that critical applications remain available even during maintenance activities.
In Summary, the 342-1815 Dell 600GB 15K RPM 16MB SAS-3GBPS 3.5 Inch LFF HDD With Tray is a high-performance hard drive that is designed for enterprise-level servers and storage systems. It has a large storage capacity, a fast spindle speed, and a reliable SAS interface, making it suitable for applications that require high-speed data transfer rates and quick access to data. The drive's compatibility with a wide range of Dell PowerEdge servers and storage systems and its hot-swapping capability make it a reliable and convenient choice for data storage in enterprise environments.
