Description
Operating Temperature and Humidity
The 400-AKML Dell 6TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS with tray HDD is designed to operate within a specific range of temperatures and humidity levels to ensure reliable performance. The drive is designed to operate within a temperature range of 5°C to 55°C (41°F to 131°F) and a relative humidity range of 8% to 90% (non-condensing).
Operating the drive outside of these temperature and humidity ranges can lead to decreased performance, data loss, and potential damage to the drive. It’s recommended to use the drive in a temperature-controlled environment, with adequate ventilation to ensure that the drive stays within the specified temperature and humidity range.
The drive also has built-in sensors that monitor the drive’s internal temperature and can trigger a thermal shutdown if the temperature exceeds a certain threshold. This helps to protect the drive from overheating and potential damage.
SAS Interface and Speed
The 400-AKML Dell 6TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS with tray HDD features a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface that provides fast data transfer rates of up to 12 Gbps. This interface allows for faster data access and improved performance compared to other interfaces, such as SATA.
SAS interface also allows for scalability and expandability, as it supports daisy-chaining multiple devices together, thus providing the ability to expand storage capacity as needed.
The drive also supports SAS 12Gbps interface which provides a faster data transfer rate compared to previous SAS interfaces. This allows the drive to handle more data and deliver higher performance, which is particularly useful in high-performance computing and data-intensive applications.
The drive also support dual-port SAS and multi-path I/O, which allows for the connection of multiple hosts to the drive at the same time, improving the availability and performance of the storage system.
Power and Energy Efficiency
The 400-AKML Dell 6TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS with tray HDD is designed to be energy efficient, using less power than traditional hard drives. The drive’s 7.2K RPM rotational speed, combined with its SAS 12GBps interface, allows for fast data access, while using less power than higher-speed drives.
The drive also supports advanced power management features such as advanced spin-down, which allows the drive to enter a low-power idle state when not in use, further reducing power consumption. This feature is especially useful in large-scale storage systems, where multiple hard drives are used, as it can help to reduce the overall power consumption of the system.
The drive is also compliant with various environmental standards, such as Energy Star and RoHS, which are aimed at reducing the environmental impact of electronic products.
Additionally, the drive’s low power consumption and advanced power management features help to reduce operating costs and improve the overall efficiency of the storage system.
