More Information
The Hitachi HUH721212ALN604 is a hard drive manufactured by Hitachi (now HGST, a Western Digital brand) with a storage capacity of 12TB and a rotation speed of 7,200 RPM. It uses the SATA 12 Gbps (Serial ATA) interface and is designed for use in enterprise-class servers and storage systems.
This hard drive is designed for use in high-density storage environments, with its 12TB of storage capacity, it allows to store large amount of data. Its 7.2K RPM spindle speed provides faster data access compared to lower RPM hard drives and SATA 12 Gbps interface provides high-speed data transfer and backwards compatibility with previous SATA interfaces.
It is compatible with a wide range of servers and storage systems that support the SATA 12 Gbps interface, including enterprise-level servers, storage arrays, and other high-density storage environments.However, it's important to check with the vendor or the system manual before purchasing and installing it, to ensure compatibility with your specific server or storage system, and to avoid any potential issues that might arise. Ensure that the system you're installing it in has the correct power and cooling capacity to support a drive of this size. It's also a good idea to check for any firmware and driver updates that may be required for the drive to function properly with the specific system.
High-performance
The Hitachi HUH721212ALN604 is a hard drive with a storage capacity of 12TB and a rotation speed of 7,200 RPM, uses the SATA 12 Gbps (Serial ATA) interface and is designed for use in enterprise-class servers and storage systems.
This hard drive is designed for high-density storage, its 12TB of storage capacity allows for the storage of large amounts of data. Its 7.2K RPM spindle speed provides faster data access compared to lower RPM hard drives and the SATA 12 Gbps interface provides a higher data transfer rate compared to previous SATA interfaces.
In terms of performance, The 7.2K RPM spindle speed is slower than the faster spinning 10K and 15K enterprise-class hard drives which offer even higher IOPS. However, the high storage capacity of the drive can offset this to a degree, as it can store more data per drive and use more drives in parallel.
The drive utilizes the 12Gbps Serial ATA interface, which delivers higher throughput than the 6Gbps SATA, allowing for faster data transfer. This can help improve the overall performance of the drive in systems that are able to take advantage of the faster interface.It's important to note that the actual performance of the drive will depend on multiple factors such as the specific configuration of the system it's installed in, the workload it's being used for, and how well it's been maintained, In addition, it's important to check with the vendor or the system manual before purchasing and installing it, to ensure compatibility with your specific server or storage system, and to avoid any potential issues that might arise.

It is compatible with a wide range of servers and storage systems that support the SATA 12 Gbps interface, including enterprise-level servers, storage arrays, and other high-density storage environments.
It's important to note that while the drive is compatible with systems that support the SATA 12 Gbps interface, the actual performance of the drive will depend on multiple factors such as the specific configuration of the system it's installed in, the workload it's being used for, and how well it's been maintained.
It's recommended to check with the vendor or the system manual before purchasing and installing it, to ensure compatibility with your specific server or storage system, and to avoid any potential issues that might arise. Confirm that the system has a free drive bay that can accommodate the drive, and that the system has the correct power and cooling capacity to support a drive of this size. Also, it's a good idea to check for any firmware and driver updates that may be required for the drive to function properly with the specific system.

About Refurbished Products
There is no better way to increase a system's storage capacity than with the latest hard drives with an impressive interface. These hard drives allow users to store and retrieve large amounts of data, thanks to their SATA interface and enhanced transfer rates of up to 12 Gbps.
They offer users the highest level of performance and reliability. Therefore, they come in handy even when performing the most demanding of tasks. SATA 12Gbps hard drives are backed by several hours of intensive testing and qualification programs. This way, users can be sure of maximizing their server response times and powering more operations within a few seconds.
Highest Level of Performance
SATA 12Gbps hard drives are characterized by incredible transmission speeds and impressive storage capacities. Users will find these types of drives that can offer up to 16TB of memory. These drives have many advantages over several other memory devices because they are flawlessly compatible with virtually all operating systems and system motherboards.
They deliver point-to-point channel communication between a server's mainboard and the hard disk drive itself. SATA 12Gbps hard drives' storage capacity and increased data transfer speed allows them to be ideal for any workload. These storage devices will help users with data processing, database applications, high-end computing, and large data analytics.
These efficient drives provide improved power for data-intensive and space-constrained data centers, thanks to the latest SATA 12Gbps interface providing increased performance. Stability and consistency is not a problem with these drives. They are built for long life use as well as steady and efficient supply.
Improved Flexibility and Expandability
SATA 12Gbps hard drives offer an improved level of flexibility to meet today's servers' growing demands. It also offers users the room to expand the spaces on their system for increasing storage capacity requirements. These form factor dual port hard drives have 12Gbps data transfer speed, and a spindle speed of up to 10000RPM is one to always look out for.
They supply users with improved flexibility and expandability without compromising functionality and energy efficiency. SATA 12Gbps hard drives are validated and certified for ensured performance, stability, and reliability. They offer performance boosts over the 6Gbps offerings to enable them to meet the need for expansive data growth.
External Interface Reliability and Durability
There is a hotplug feature on SATA 12Gbps hard drives that allows them to be used as an external interface, such as a USB. This feature is referred to as eSATA. eSATA offers more transfer speeds than the USB and works better with external hard drives while also being suitable for portable mass storage devices.
This interface has an advantage over several others for its durability and reliability. Hardly would users complain about catastrophic SATA 12Gbps failures. Most of these devices require the use of SATA hard drive diagnostics tools, which will give users warnings about unusual operations going on within the drives.
This might temporarily disallow you from opening certain files, probably due to corruption. However, users will not have a fear of losing critical system files. Access to the operating system also remains intact.
