Description
Specifications of the 707568-B21 HP Hard Drive
here are the specifications of the 707568-B21 HP 300GB 15K RPM SAS 6GBPS Smartdrive Carrier SC Hard Drive with Tray:
- Capacity: The hard drive has a storage capacity of 300GB, which is sufficient for storing a large amount of data.
- Interface: The 707568-B21 hard drive has a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface that provides faster data transfer rates compared to SATA drives. It supports data transfer speeds of up to 6 Gbps.
- Rotational Speed: This hard drive has a rotational speed of 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), which is much faster than most SATA drives. The higher rotational speed provides better performance and faster access times.
- Form Factor: The 707568-B21 hard drive has a 2.5-inch form factor, which is smaller than the standard 3.5-inch drives. This makes it an ideal choice for space-constrained environments like data centers.
- Compatibility: The hard drive is compatible with a wide range of HP ProLiant servers and storage systems.
- Cache: This hard drive has a 64 MB cache buffer, which helps to improve performance by temporarily storing frequently accessed data.
- Average Seek Time: The average seek time of the hard drive is 3.5ms, which means it takes only a short time to locate data on the disk.
- Power Consumption: The 707568-B21 hard drive has a maximum power consumption of 7.5 watts, which is relatively low for a high-performance hard drive.
- Operating Temperature: The hard drive can operate in a temperature range of 50°F to 95°F (10°C to 35°C).
- Operating Humidity: The hard drive can operate in a humidity range of 10% to 90% non-condensing.
These specifications make the 707568-B21 HP 300GB 15K RPM SAS 6GBPS Smartdrive Carrier SC Hard Drive with Tray an ideal choice for organizations that require high-performance storage solutions that are reliable, energy-efficient, and compatible with a wide range of HP ProLiant servers and storage systems.
Benefits of 15K RPM SAS Hard Drives
- Faster Performance: 15K RPM SAS hard drives offer faster read and write speeds compared to lower RPM hard drives. The faster rotational speed allows the drive to locate and access data on the disk more quickly, which translates to faster application performance and shorter load times.
- Lower Latency: Because 15K RPM SAS drives can locate and access data more quickly, they have lower latency compared to lower RPM drives. This means that data can be retrieved from the disk more quickly, resulting in faster application performance.
- Better I/O Performance: 15K RPM SAS hard drives have higher I/O performance compared to lower RPM drives. This is because the faster rotational speed allows the drive to handle more I/O operations per second, which is essential for high-performance applications that require a lot of I/O operations.
- Enhanced Reliability: 15K RPM SAS hard drives are designed for mission-critical applications that require high levels of reliability. They are built with higher quality components and are rigorously tested to ensure they can withstand the demanding operating environments of data centers and other enterprise-level environments.
- Higher Capacity: While 15K RPM SAS hard drives typically have lower capacities than lower RPM drives, they still offer higher capacity than solid-state drives (SSDs) at a lower cost per gigabyte. This makes them an ideal choice for applications that require high performance and large storage capacity.
- Energy-Efficiency: 15K RPM SAS hard drives are designed to be energy-efficient, which is important in data center environments where power consumption is a major concern. They use less power than lower RPM drives, and their faster access times mean that they can complete tasks more quickly, reducing the overall time they need to be in operation.
These benefits make 15K RPM SAS hard drives an ideal choice for high-performance applications that require fast access times, high I/O performance, and reliability. They are often used in mission-critical applications such as financial trading, scientific computing, and database management.
Compatibility with HP Servers and Storage Systems
The 707568-B21 HP 300GB 15K RPM SAS 6GBPS Smartdrive Carrier SC Hard Drive with Tray is compatible with a wide range of HP ProLiant servers and storage systems.
The hard drive is designed to work seamlessly with HP’s Smart Array Controllers and HP’s Smart Carrier system. The Smart Carrier system is designed to simplify the installation and removal of hard drives in HP servers and storage systems, and it also provides an integrated status indicator that helps to identify drive failures and other issues.
The 707568-B21 hard drive is specifically designed for use in HP ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers, as well as HP BladeSystem c-Class and p-Class enclosures. However, it is also compatible with a wide range of other HP servers and storage systems, including the HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array (MSA), HP ProLiant DL and ML servers, and HP ProLiant BL BladeSystem servers.
To ensure compatibility with specific HP servers and storage systems, it is important to check the server’s specifications and documentation to verify that it supports the 707568-B21 hard drive. HP also provides compatibility matrices and other resources to help customers identify the appropriate hard drive options for their specific server or storage system.
