Description
More Information
The Dell 0VFP4M SAS 12GBPS 8TB 7.2K Hard Drive is a high-performance storage solution designed for use in enterprise-level servers and storage systems. It features a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface and a 12 Gbps data transfer rate, allowing for fast and reliable data transfer. The hard drive has a large 8TB storage capacity and 7.2K RPM spindle speed, making it well-suited for storing and retrieving large amounts of data quickly. It also has a large form factor (LFF) of 3.5 inches, making it compatible with LFF drive bays and enclosures. The hard drive is designed to meet the needs of data centers and other demanding environments, with features such as enhanced reliability and data protection. Additionally, it is optimized for near-line data storage, which is a storage solution that is less expensive than primary storage but still provides a high level of performance and data protection.
Performance Features
The Dell 0VFP4M SAS 12GBPS 8TB 7.2K Hard Drive has several performance features that make it suitable for use in enterprise-level servers and storage systems:
High Capacity: With a large 8TB storage capacity, this hard drive is well-suited for storing large amounts of data, such as large databases, videos, images, and files.
High Spindle Speed: The hard drive has a spindle speed of 7200 RPM (Revolutions Per Minute), which is a measure of the speed at which the hard drive’s platters spin. This high spindle speed allows for faster data access and retrieval, making it an ideal solution for high-performance applications and workloads that require quick access to large amounts of data.
High-speed Data Transfer: The hard drive has a 12 Gbps SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which is a high-speed data transfer technology that enables faster data transfer rates. This allows the hard drive to transfer data to and from the host system at a faster rate than other interfaces such as SATA.
Near-Line Optimization: The hard drive is optimized for near-line data storage, which is a storage solution that is less expensive than primary storage but still provides a high level of performance and data protection. This makes it ideal for use in applications that require a high level of performance and data protection but do not require the same level of performance and data protection as primary storage.
Large Form Factor: The hard drive comes with a Large Form Factor (LFF) which is 3.5 inches in size, allowing for more storage in the same size physical space and it’s also compatible with LFF drive bays and enclosures.
Form Factor
The Dell 0VFP4M SAS 12GBPS 8TB 7.2K Hard Drive comes in a Large Form Factor (LFF), also known as a “3.5-inch form factor.” This form factor is commonly used in enterprise-level servers and storage systems. The LFF hard drive is larger in size compared to small form factor (SFF) hard drives, which are 2.5 inches.
The large form factor allows for more storage in the same size physical space and also makes it compatible with LFF drive bays and enclosures. This also allows for more flexibility in terms of installation and allows for more storage to be added to a server or storage system without having to increase the physical size of the system.
It’s important to note that LFF hard drives have a larger physical size which results in more cooling needs and power consumption compared to SFF hard drives, however, it’s also able to handle more vibration and shock, making them more durable in harsher environments. Additionally, the hard drive is optimized for near-line data storage, which is a storage solution that is less expensive than primary storage but still provides a high level of performance and data protection.
