Description
Product overview of Hybrid Carrier Hard Disk Drive
The 400-AJQX Dell Hybrid is a hard disk drive that has been designed for use in PowerEdge and PowerVault servers. It is a 1.8TB storage device that operates at 10,000 revolutions per minute (RPM). The disk drive utilizes Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface technology, which provides a high-speed data transfer rate of 12 gigabits per second (GBPS). In addition, the drive features a 512 Emulation (512E) format and comes in a hybrid carrier form factor with a tray.
Hybrid Carrier Form Factor
The 400-AJQX Dell Hybrid comes in a hybrid carrier form factor that is compatible with both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drive bays. This means that the drive can be installed in either a small form factor (SFF) or a large form factor (LFF) server, depending on the server’s drive bay size. This form factor provides flexibility and convenience in terms of installation and use of the disk drive.
SAS Interface Technology
The 400-AJQX Dell Hybrid utilizes SAS interface technology to provide high-speed data transfer rates. SAS is a serial interface technology that provides a point-to-point connection between the disk drive and the server’s host bus adapter (HBA). This technology offers several advantages over other interface technologies such as parallel Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) and Serial ATA (SATA). SAS provides faster data transfer rates, better signal integrity, and greater scalability. The SAS interface used in the 400-AJQX Dell Hybrid supports a transfer rate of 12 GBPS, which is significantly faster than the transfer rates provided by other interface technologies.
10,000 RPM Speed
The 400-AJQX Dell Hybrid operates at a speed of 10,000 RPM, which is faster than the typical speed of 7,200 RPM for standard hard disk drives. The higher rotational speed of the drive results in faster data access times and faster data transfer rates. This makes the drive suitable for applications that require high-performance storage solutions, such as databases, virtualization, and online transaction processing.
512 Emulation Format
The 400-AJQX Dell Hybrid uses the 512 Emulation (512E) format, which allows the disk drive to emulate a 512-byte sector size while using a larger physical sector size of 4 kilobytes (KB) or 8 KB. This format allows the disk drive to be compatible with older operating systems and applications that were designed to work with 512-byte sector sizes. The 512E format also provides a higher data transfer rate compared to the traditional 512-byte sector format.
Compatibility
The 400-AJQX Dell Hybrid has been designed specifically for use in PowerEdge and PowerVault servers. These servers are high-performance servers that are used in enterprise-level applications. The disk drive has been tested and validated for use in these servers to ensure compatibility and reliability. It is important to note that the drive may not be compatible with other server models or brands.
