Product Overview of 300GB Hard Drive
The 400-AJRM Dell 300GB 15K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot-Swap SFF Hard Drive is an enterprise-grade hard drive designed for use in servers, storage arrays, and other high-performance computing systems. In this article, we will explain the technical specifications, features, and benefits of this hard drive.
Technical Specifications
The 400-AJRM Dell Hard Drive has the following technical specifications:
- Capacity: 300GB
- Form Factor: 2.5 inch Small Form Factor (SFF)
- Interface: SAS 12GBPS
- RPM: 15,000
- Hot-Swap: Yes
- Caddy: Yes
- Buffer Size: 128MB
Form Factor
The 400-AJRM Dell Hard Drive has a small form factor of 2.5 inches, which makes it ideal for use in servers and storage arrays that require high-density storage solutions. The small form factor allows for more hard drives to be installed in a smaller space, resulting in higher storage capacity in the same physical footprint.
Interface
The hard drive uses the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which provides fast data transfer rates of up to 12GBPS. SAS is a high-performance interface that is commonly used in enterprise-grade storage systems due to its reliability and performance.
RPM
The hard drive has a rotational speed of 15,000 RPM, which is considered a high-speed hard drive. The faster rotational speed allows for faster access to data stored on the drive, which is essential for high-performance computing applications that require fast data transfer rates.
Hot-Swap
The 400-AJRM Dell Hard Drive is hot-swappable, which means that it can be replaced while the system is still running. This feature is essential in enterprise-grade systems, as it allows for maintenance and upgrades to be performed without disrupting system operations.
Caddy
The hard drive comes with a caddy, which is a metal enclosure that holds the drive in place and provides additional protection to the drive. The caddy is designed to fit in the server or storage array and allows for easy insertion and removal of the drive.
Buffer Size
The 400-AJRM Dell Hard Drive has a buffer size of 128MB, which is a significant increase from the standard 64MB buffer found in most hard drives. The larger buffer size allows for faster access to frequently accessed data and reduces the overall load on the system.
Features and Benefits
The 400-AJRM Dell Hard Drive comes with several features that make it an ideal choice for use in enterprise-grade systems.
Reliability
The hard drive is designed to be highly reliable, with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of up to 2 million hours. The high MTBF ensures that the hard drive can operate continuously for long periods without failure, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
Performance
The hard drive has a fast data transfer rate of up to 12GBPS and a rotational speed of 15,000 RPM, which makes it ideal for use in high-performance computing systems that require fast data transfer rates.
Low Power Consumption
The hard drive has a low power consumption of 6.9 watts when idle and 9.8 watts when operating, which makes it an energy-efficient choice for use in enterprise-grade systems.
