Description
Performance Benchmarking
To benchmark the performance of the 400-BDSP Dell 14g 960GB Mixed Use TLC SATA 6GBPS 2.5inch Hot Plug Solid State Drive, several performance metrics can be evaluated, including sequential read and write speeds, random read and write speeds, and input/output operations per second (IOPS).
According to Dell, the 400-BDSP drive has a maximum sequential read speed of up to 540 megabytes per second (MB/s) and a maximum sequential write speed of up to 520 MB/s. These speeds are sufficient for most enterprise and data center workloads, including databases, virtualization, and high-performance computing.
For random read and write speeds, Dell reports that the 400-BDSP drive can achieve up to 98,000 IOPS for random reads and up to 26,000 IOPS for random writes. These metrics are particularly important for workloads that involve accessing small, random blocks of data, such as online transaction processing (OLTP) databases and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environments.
In addition to these performance metrics, the endurance and durability of the 400-BDSP drive should also be considered when evaluating its suitability for enterprise and data center environments. The 400-BDSP drive has an endurance rating of up to 1.3 drive writes per day (DWPD) over a five-year period, which means that it can sustain up to 1.3 full drive writes per day for five years before it reaches its rated endurance limit. This translates to a total endurance of approximately 4,716 terabytes written (TBW) for the 960GB capacity drive.
The 400-BDSP drive is also designed to withstand a range of physical and environmental stressors, with shock resistance of up to 1500G/0.5ms (half sine) and vibration resistance of up to 2.17Grms (5-700Hz). It also has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of up to 2 million hours.
Endurance and Longevity
The endurance and longevity of the 400-BDSP Dell 14g 960GB Mixed Use TLC SATA 6GBPS 2.5inch Hot Plug Solid State Drive are critical factors to consider when evaluating its suitability for enterprise and data center environments.
The endurance rating of the 400-BDSP drive is up to 1.3 drive writes per day (DWPD) over a five-year period. This means that the drive can sustain up to 1.3 full drive writes per day for five years before it reaches its rated endurance limit. The endurance rating is an important metric that reflects the maximum amount of data that can be written to the drive over its lifetime. In the case of the 960GB capacity drive, the total endurance is approximately 4,716 terabytes written (TBW) over the five-year period.
In addition to the endurance rating, the 400-BDSP drive also has advanced wear-leveling and error-correction technologies that help to maximize the drive’s lifespan and prevent data loss. Wear-leveling distributes write operations evenly across the drive’s memory cells, reducing the wear on any particular area of the drive and extending the drive’s lifespan. Error-correction technologies detect and correct errors that may occur during read and write operations, preventing data loss and ensuring data integrity.
Dell also employs a range of reliability and durability features in the design of the 400-BDSP drive. The drive has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of up to 2 million hours, which means that it is expected to operate reliably for an extended period before experiencing a failure. The drive is also built to withstand a range of physical and environmental stressors, including shock and vibration, making it a robust and durable storage option.
Compatibility and Connectivity
The 400-BDSP Dell 14g 960GB Mixed Use TLC SATA 6GBPS 2.5inch Hot Plug Solid State Drive is designed to be compatible with a range of Dell PowerEdge servers and storage arrays, as well as other systems that support SATA 6Gbps interface.
The drive has a standard 2.5-inch form factor, which allows it to fit into a variety of drive bays and hot-plug drive sleds. It uses a Serial ATA (SATA) 6Gbps interface, which provides high-speed data transfer rates and is backward-compatible with earlier versions of the SATA interface.
The 400-BDSP drive is also hot-pluggable, which means that it can be inserted or removed from a system while the system is running, without the need for a system shutdown. This feature is particularly useful in mission-critical environments, where system uptime is essential.
To ensure compatibility with a specific system, it is important to verify that the system supports the SATA 6Gbps interface and has an available drive bay with the appropriate form factor. In addition, the system’s BIOS and firmware should be updated to the latest version to ensure proper detection and configuration of the drive.
