Description
Product overview of the Cisco CCS-HD-300GB
The CCS-HD-300GB is a high-performance internal hard drive designed for use in Cisco’s Content Security Appliance (CSA). This hard drive is built to provide fast and reliable data access and storage for critical business applications. This hard drive comes with several features and specifications that make it a powerful and efficient storage solution.
Form Factor and Size
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive has a standard 3.5-inch form factor, which is the most common form factor used in desktop computers and servers. The standard form factor allows the hard drive to be easily installed in a variety of storage systems, making it a versatile storage solution. The hard drive has a height of 1 inch, which is the standard height for most 3.5-inch hard drives.
Capacity and Speed
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive has a capacity of 300GB, which is a considerable amount of storage for most enterprise-level applications. The hard drive has a rotational speed of 15,000 RPM, which is faster than the standard 7,200 RPM found in most consumer-level hard drives. The faster rotational speed of the hard drive allows for faster access to data and better overall performance.
SATA Interface
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive uses the Serial ATA (SATA) interface, which is a high-speed data transfer interface commonly used in desktop and server storage systems. The SATA interface provides faster data transfer rates and better reliability than the older Parallel ATA (PATA) interface used in older hard drives. The SATA interface is also designed to support multiple hard drives in a single storage system, allowing for easier management and expansion of storage capacity.
Hot Swap Capability
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive has hot swap capability, which means that the hard drive can be replaced or added to a storage system without the need to power down the system. The hot swap capability allows for easier maintenance and upgrades, as well as reducing the downtime required for hardware changes.
Compatibility
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive is designed to be compatible with Cisco’s Content Security Appliance (CSA). The hard drive is also compatible with a variety of operating systems, including Windows Server, Linux, and VMware. Compatibility with a wide range of hardware and software systems makes the CCS-HD-300GB hard drive a versatile and reliable storage solution.
Performance
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive is designed for high performance and reliability. The hard drive has a sustained data transfer rate of up to 200 MB/s, which allows for fast and efficient data transfer between the hard drive and the server. The hard drive also has an average seek time of 3.5 ms, which is a measure of how quickly the hard drive can locate and access data.
RAID Support
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive supports RAID configurations, which allow for data redundancy and improved system performance. RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a storage technology that combines multiple hard drives into a single logical unit to provide improved performance and data protection. The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive is compatible with several RAID configurations, including RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5.
Security
The CCS-HD-300GB hard drive comes with several security features to ensure that data is protected and secure. The hard drive includes self-encrypting drive (SED) technology, which encrypts data stored on the hard drive using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithms. The hard drive also includes Secure Erase technology, which allows for secure and permanent data erasure in compliance with industry standards.
