Description
Secure Scalability & Accessibility
The Dell 400-ALYO is a high-performance SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) solid-state drive (SSD) that is optimized for mix-use workloads, which means it can handle a balance of read and write operations. It is equipped with 800GB of storage capacity and a 12 Gbps data transfer rate.
The drive uses MLC (multi-level cell) NAND flash memory, which is a type of flash memory that stores two bits per cell, making it more durable than TLC (triple-level cell) memory. This makes the drive more reliable for write-heavy workloads, where the durability of the memory cells is more important.
The drive has a 2.5-inch form factor and comes in a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier. This allows the drive to be installed in a 3.5-inch drive bay, providing secure scalability and accessibility for servers and other high-performance computing applications.
It also provides the scalability and accessibility features, the drive can be easily replaced and upgraded, and the hot-swap design allows for easy maintenance without having to shut down the system.
This drive would be well suited for data center, enterprise and business environments where secure scalability and accessibility is important, such as in a data center or cloud-based infrastructure.
Hot Swap & Drive Efficiency
The Dell 400-ALYO is a 800GB SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) solid-state drive (SSD) that has a data transfer rate of 12 Gbps and a form factor of 2.5 inches, but comes with a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier that allows it to be used in both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drive bays. It is intended for use in a mix of different workloads, such as read-intensive, write-intensive, or a combination of both. It uses Multi-Level Cell (MLC) flash memory technology, which provides a balance of performance and endurance. The drive is designed for hot-swap capability, meaning it can be replaced without shutting down the system, providing ease of maintenance and reducing downtime. Additionally, the drive is designed for high drive efficiency, it features advanced wear-leveling and error correction codes, to ensure data integrity and prolong the drive’s lifespan.
High Speed Data Transfer
The 400-ALYO Dell 800GB Mix Use MLC SAS 12GBPS 2.5-inch in 3.5-inch Hybrid Carrier SSD is a type of solid-state drive (SSD) that is used for data storage. It uses SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface and 12 Gbps data transfer rate.
The “Mix Use” in the name refers to the drive’s intended use case, which is optimized for a mix of read and write workloads such as online transaction processing and database applications.
“MLC” stands for Multi-Level Cell, which is a type of NAND flash memory that stores multiple bits of data per memory cell. MLC is less expensive than SLC (Single-Level Cell) but also has lower endurance.
“2.5-inch in 3.5-inch Hybrid Carrier” refers to the form factor of the drive, which is designed to fit in a 3.5-inch drive bay but has the same physical dimensions of a 2.5-inch drive. This allows for easy installation in systems that are designed for 3.5-inch drives but can also support 2.5-inch drives.
“Hot Swap” means that the drive can be removed and replaced while the system is still running. This allows for easy maintenance and upgrades without having to shut down the system.
“High Speed Data Transfer” refers to the drive’s ability to transfer data quickly due to its 12 Gbps data transfer rate.
In summary, the 400-ALYO Dell 800GB Mix Use MLC SAS 12GBPS 2.5-inch in 3.5-inch Hybrid Carrier SSD is a cost-effective solid-state drive that is optimized for a mix of read and write workloads, uses MLC NAND flash memory, can be easily removed and replaced while the system is running, has a high speed data transfer rate, and is designed to fit in a 3.5-inch drive bay but has the same physical dimensions of a 2.5-inch drive.
