Product Specifications Of 15K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot-Swap Hard Drive
The IBM 00WG680 is a high-performance hot-swap hard drive designed for enterprise-grade servers and storage systems. This hard drive offers a large storage capacity of 600GB, fast data transfer rates, and reliable operation. In this article, we will provide a detailed explanation of the features and benefits of the IBM 00WG680 hard drive, as well as its technical specifications.
Capacity
The IBM 00WG680 hard drive has a large storage capacity of 600GB, which is ideal for storing large amounts of data, such as documents, photos, videos, and other files. This storage capacity is suitable for use in enterprise-grade servers and storage systems that require high-capacity storage devices to support their operations.
Speed
This hard drive has a spindle speed of 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), which makes it one of the fastest hard drives available on the market. The fast spindle speed allows the hard drive to read and write data quickly, making it ideal for high-performance storage applications. The high speed of this hard drive also makes it suitable for applications that require quick access to large amounts of data, such as database applications.
Interface
The IBM 00WG680 hard drive has a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a high-speed interface that provides fast data transfer rates. The SAS interface supports data transfer rates of up to 12 gigabytes per second (GB/s), which is much faster than the older SCSI interface. The SAS interface is also more reliable than the SCSI interface, providing better error correction and fault tolerance.
Form Factor
This hard drive has a 3.5-inch form factor, which is the standard form factor for most hard drives. The larger form factor provides more space for the internal components of the hard drive, allowing for higher-capacity storage devices. The hard drive comes with a tray that is designed to fit into the server or storage system, making it easy to install and remove the hard drive as needed.
Hot Swap Capability
The IBM 00WG680 hard drive is a hot-swappable hard drive, which means that it can be replaced while the server or storage system is still running. This feature allows for easy replacement of failed hard drives without the need to shut down the entire system. The hot-swap capability also reduces system downtime and improves system availability, making it an essential feature for enterprise-grade servers and storage systems.
Compatibility
This hard drive is compatible with a wide range of enterprise-grade servers and storage systems from IBM and other manufacturers. It is also compatible with various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and UNIX. This compatibility makes it easy to integrate this hard drive into existing server and storage infrastructures, without the need for extensive modifications or upgrades.
Reliability
The IBM 00WG680 hard drive is a highly reliable hard drive that is designed for use in mission-critical applications. It has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 1.6 million hours, which means that it is expected to operate reliably for a long period of time. The hard drive also features advanced error correction and fault tolerance mechanisms that help ensure data integrity and prevent data loss.
Energy Efficiency
The IBM 00WG680 hard drive is designed to be energy efficient, which is an important consideration for enterprise-grade servers and storage systems. It has a low power consumption of only 10.5 watts when idle, and 12.8 watts when operating. This low power consumption helps to reduce energy costs and also helps to reduce the heat generated by the hard drive, which can be an issue in high-density server environments.

The Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard drives have become increasingly popular for their increasing use in high-end workstations and servers. These drives are employed in consumer desktops and modern servers for their speed and reliability. Enterprises have made the SAS hard drives their de-facto standard. Now, the 12Gbps speed throws the usefulness of these drives up a notch.
Most professional hosting providers now use SAS 12Gbps hard drives for data production. These drives have proven useful in high input/output operations and critical website functions. Users trust these drives because there is no risk of data loss, corruption, or downtime.
Faster Throughput
SAS 12Gbps drives read, write, and process data within split seconds. The latest 12Gbps disks use the latest RAID hardware technology to offer faster data transfer and recovery rates. They are perfect for sequential data, high workloads, and random IOPS alike.
This function allows them to be best suited for servers that have 100 percent duty cycles. They do not only work with desktops and PCs, but they can read/write data 24/7.
Higher Performance
SAS 12Gbps HDDs have received the utmost attention in the market as a result of their high performance. These performance benefits allow it to be useful for a wide variety of applications. For instance, a SAS 12Gbps connection can support up to four wide lanes per connection.
Connecting JBOD with these SAS drives can support up to 1200MB/s. These high-performance drives do not only help handle large workloads; they also offer cost-effective expansion to an already robust system.
Also, each 12Gbps high-performance SAS drive can offer users a rotational speed of up to 15000 rpm.
They provide a great bandwidth enough to perform efficiently. The robust performance of SAS 12Gbps drives clearly a worthy investment for improved performance of servers and desktops. They provide very large amounts of storage options and are a cost-effective choice for users.
Utmost Flexibility
Flexibility is one of the best benefits of SAS 12Gbps drives. These drives have configured flexibility, which allows them to work perfectly with several devices without modification or changes. Many of them feature a Universal Serial controller for seamless system support.
SAS 12Gbps hard drives can also be partitioned into a storage pool and assigned to servers for work-intensive applications. They are a perfect fit for server systems, including reservation systems, medical imaging, and more!
Only this range of SAS hard drives can provide users with the best worlds of flexibility. This way, allows them to support use with other drives.
Increased Availability
12Gbps SAS-based storage systems have the benefit of dual-port capability. This allows them to provide a redundant path to the drives in case of controller failover. These drives also operate on separate point-to-point connections. That way, it is rare for drive connection loss to affect them.
SAS 12Gbps HDDs are built to handle the rigours of heavy workloads and enterprise use. They also safeguard data integrity, thanks to their ability to comprehensively verify data and correct errors.Warranty
