Description
Product Information
The 2J16V Dell 900GB 15K RPM 256MB SAS 12GBPS 512E 2.5Inch Hard Disk Drive is a high-performance storage device designed for enterprise-level applications. In this article, we will explain the technical specifications of this hard disk drive and what they mean in simple English.
Capacity and Form Factor
The 2J16V Dell hard disk drive has a capacity of 900GB, which means it can store up to 900 gigabytes of data. It has a form factor of 2.5 inches, which means it is smaller than the standard desktop hard disk drives that have a form factor of 3.5 inches. This smaller form factor makes it ideal for use in servers, storage arrays, and other high-density computing environments.
Rotational Speed
The 2J16V Dell hard disk drive has a rotational speed of 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM). The rotational speed of a hard disk drive determines how quickly data can be read or written to the disk. A higher rotational speed means faster data access times, which is essential for applications that require high-performance storage.
Interface
The 2J16V Dell hard disk drive uses the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface. SAS is a high-speed interface that is designed to provide high-speed data transfer rates and reliable data access. The SAS interface is commonly used in enterprise-level applications where high-performance storage is required.
Data Transfer Rate
The 2J16V Dell hard disk drive has a data transfer rate of 12 Gigabits per second (Gbps). This data transfer rate is achieved through the SAS interface and is significantly faster than the data transfer rates achieved by traditional hard disk drives.
Cache Size
The 2J16V Dell hard disk drive has a cache size of 256 megabytes (MB). The cache is a small amount of high-speed memory that is used to store frequently accessed data. By storing frequently accessed data in the cache, the hard disk drive can provide faster access times and improve overall system performance.
512e Technology
The 2J16V Dell hard disk drive uses the 512e technology. 512e stands for 512-byte emulation and is a technology that enables the hard disk drive to store data in 512-byte sectors while presenting itself to the host system as if it were using 4K-byte sectors. This technology allows the hard disk drive to be backward compatible with older systems that use 512-byte sector sizes while also providing the benefits of the larger 4K-byte sector sizes.
In Summary, the 2J16V Dell 900GB 15K RPM 256MB SAS 12GBPS 512E 2.5Inch Hard Disk Drive is a high-performance storage device designed for use in enterprise-level applications. Its small form factor, high rotational speed, fast data transfer rates, and large cache size make it ideal for use in high-density computing environments. Its compatibility with a wide range of servers and operating systems, as well as its 512e technology, make it a versatile storage solution for a variety of applications.
