Description
Compatibility and Connectivity
The 400-BDNZ Dell 14g 960GB Read Intensive TLC SATA 6Gbps 2.5 inch Hot Swap Solid State Drive is a standard 2.5 inch form factor drive that is compatible with most servers and storage devices that have a 2.5 inch drive bay. It is designed specifically for Dell PowerEdge servers and storage systems that support SATA hot swap drives.
This drive uses the SATA 6Gbps (SATA III) interface, which provides a high-speed data transfer rate of up to 6 gigabits per second. SATA is a widely used interface for connecting storage devices to computers and servers, and it is backward compatible with earlier versions of SATA as well.
The 400-BDNZ Dell 14g 960GB Read Intensive TLC SATA 6Gbps 2.5 inch Hot Swap Solid State Drive uses TLC (Triple-Level Cell) NAND flash memory technology, which provides a high level of performance and endurance for read-intensive workloads. TLC NAND flash memory is less expensive than SLC (Single-Level Cell) or MLC (Multi-Level Cell) NAND flash memory, making it an attractive option for cost-sensitive environments.
Performance and Endurance
The 400-BDNZ Dell 14g 960GB Read Intensive TLC SATA 6Gbps 2.5 inch Hot Swap Solid State Drive is designed to provide high performance and endurance for read-intensive workloads in data center environments.
The drive uses Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND flash memory technology, which allows for high storage density at a lower cost compared to Single-Level Cell (SLC) or Multi-Level Cell (MLC) NAND flash memory. While TLC NAND flash memory is generally less durable than SLC or MLC, the 400-BDNZ drive is designed with high endurance and reliability in mind.
In terms of performance, the 400-BDNZ Dell 14g 960GB Read Intensive TLC SATA 6Gbps 2.5 inch Hot Swap Solid State Drive offers fast read and write speeds, thanks to its SATA 6Gbps (SATA III) interface. It has a sequential read speed of up to 550 MB/s and a sequential write speed of up to 480 MB/s, which allows for quick access to data and speedy transfers.
In terms of endurance, the drive is rated for up to 2.8 drive writes per day (DWPD) over a five-year period, which means it can handle a high volume of data writes and still maintain its performance and reliability. This endurance rating makes it suitable for read-intensive workloads, such as web serving, content delivery, and video streaming.
Hot Swap Capability
The hot swap capability of the 400-BDNZ Dell 14g 960GB Read Intensive TLC SATA 6Gbps 2.5 inch Hot Swap Solid State Drive refers to its ability to be easily removed or replaced while the server is still running. This feature is particularly useful in data center environments where servers need to be kept up and running continuously without any interruption.
Hot swapping allows system administrators to replace a failing or defective drive without shutting down the server, which minimizes downtime and reduces the risk of data loss. With hot swapping, the system can automatically detect the replacement drive and begin rebuilding the data from the other drives in the RAID array.
In the case of the 400-BDNZ Dell 14g 960GB Read Intensive TLC SATA 6Gbps 2.5 inch Hot Swap Solid State Drive, it has been specifically designed to be hot swappable, which means it can be inserted or removed without the need to shut down the server. This drive also has a capacity of 960GB, which makes it suitable for storing large amounts of data. The TLC (Triple-Level Cell) NAND flash memory technology used in this drive provides a high level of performance and endurance, making it ideal for read-intensive workloads.
