Description
More Specifications
The HGST 12TB 0F29531 hard drive is a high-performance hard drive that is designed for enterprise-grade storage systems and servers. It has a rotation speed of 7.2K RPM (revolutions per minute) and a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface with a data transfer rate of 12 Gbps. The drive has a large 12TB storage capacity, which is suitable for data-intensive workloads and applications, such as data warehousing, big data analytics, and video surveillance systems. The 7.2K RPM speed helps to provide faster data access and improved performance. It also features a large 256MB cache buffer which allows for faster data access.
This hard drive is also built to meet the demands of high-performance workloads and applications, and it is designed to handle heavy workloads and demanding 24/7 operation. The drive features a high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) which is a metric of a drive’s reliability and is used to predict the expected lifespan of a hard drive. It also features enhanced error recovery controls, which help to protect data and improve drive performance in high-vibration environments. It is also built with enterprise-grade components that deliver long-term reliability and stability.
The drive is also compatible with most SAS-compatible storage systems and servers, and it is backward-compatible with SAS-6GBPS and SAS-3GBPS. This allows for easy integration into existing storage systems
PowerVault Server
The HGST 12TB 0F29531 hard drive is compatible with the Dell PowerVault server. The PowerVault series is a line of enterprise-grade storage systems and servers that are designed to handle heavy workloads and demanding 24/7 operation. The PowerVault servers support SAS-12GBPS hard drives, so the HGST 12TB hard drive is an ideal option for use in these systems.
The PowerVault server can support multiple hard drives in RAID configurations, allowing for increased storage capacity and data redundancy. The drive’s high performance and reliability make it suitable for use in the PowerVault server, where data availability and uptime are crucial.
It’s important to note that, even though the drive is compatible with the PowerVault server, it’s always a good idea to check with the server’s vendor to ensure compatibility and review the documentation and user guide to ensure the hard drive is supported and to understand the procedures for installing and configuring the hard drive in the PowerVault server.
General Compatibility
The HGST 12TB 7.2K RPM Internal SAS 12GBPS Hard Drive with part number 0F29531 is generally compatible with servers and storage systems that support SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) 12 Gbps interface and have a free drive bay that can accommodate a 3.5-inch hard drive. The SAS interface is backward-compatible with earlier versions of SAS, so it may also be compatible with systems that support SAS 6 Gbps or SAS 3 Gbps. However, the best way to confirm compatibility is to check the specifications of your server or storage system, or consult with the manufacturer. It is also important to ensure that the server or storage system has the power supply and cooling capacity to support the drive. It is also recommended to check for any specific firmware or driver updates that may be required for the hard drive to work properly with your system.
