Description
More Information
The Dell 400-AMPD is an 8 terabyte hard drive with a rotation speed of 7,200 RPM. It has a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) 12 Gbps interface and 512E format. SAS is a high-speed data transfer interface that is commonly used in enterprise-level storage systems and servers. The 512E format means that the drive is designed to work with systems that use larger block sizes (512 bytes) and also with systems that use the standard block size (520 bytes) used by most SAS hard drives. This hard drive is designed for use in Dell servers and storage systems and it is optimized for reliability and performance in 24/7 operation. With a large storage capacity and fast data transfer speed, this drive is suitable for use in data-intensive environments such as data centers and large-scale storage systems.
Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) HDD
The Dell 400-AMPD 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS 512E Hard Drive is a high-performance hard drive that is optimized for reliability and performance in 24/7 operation. The 7,200 RPM rotation speed provides fast data access and transfer speeds, and the SAS 12 Gbps interface provides a high data transfer rate of up to 12 Gbps. The large 8 terabyte storage capacity makes it suitable for use in data-intensive environments such as data centers and large-scale storage systems that require large storage capacity and high I/O operations. The 512E format of the drive allows for the drive to work with systems that use larger block sizes which can help improve the performance of the drive by reducing the number of I/O operations required to access the same amount of data. Additionally, Dell has implemented advanced features like Power Loss Data Protection and enhanced error handling capabilities which helps to improve the overall performance and reliability of the drive.
Reliability
The Dell 400-AMPD 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS 512E Hard Drive is designed for use in Dell servers and storage systems that support SAS 12 Gbps hard drives and 512E format. It is also compatible with any other servers or storage systems that support SAS 12 Gbps hard drives and 512E format, which comply with the standard form factor, dimensions, and power requirements. However, it is recommended to check with the manufacturer of the server or storage system to ensure compatibility before purchasing. Additionally, the drive may require specific firmware and/or BIOS version to work properly with the specific server or storage system. The 512E format of the drive allows for the drive to work with systems that use larger block sizes, which can help improve the performance of the drive by reducing the number of I/O operations required to access the same amount of data. It is important to check the technical specifications of the server or storage system to ensure that it supports the 512E format, before making a purchase.
