Product Overview Of 900GB15K SAS 12GBPS 512|E Hot Plug HDD
The Dell 400-ASGX 900GB15K SAS 12GBPS 512|E Hot Plug HDD is a high-performance storage device that is designed for use in enterprise-level computer systems. It is a hard disk drive (HDD) that has a capacity of 900GB and spins at 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM). This article will provide a detailed explanation of what the Dell 400-ASGX hard drive is, how it works, and its key features.
Dell 400-ASGX hard drive
The Dell 400-ASGX hard drive is a storage device that is manufactured by Dell. It is designed to be used in enterprise-level computer systems and is specifically designed for use in servers and storage arrays. It is a hard disk drive (HDD) which means that it uses spinning disks to store data. The 900GB capacity means that it can store a large amount of data and the 15,000 RPM speed ensures that it can access that data quickly.
Does the Dell 400-ASGX hard drive work
The Dell 400-ASGX hard drive uses spinning disks to store data. These disks are coated with a magnetic material that can be magnetized to represent binary data (1s and 0s). The disks spin at 15,000 RPM which means that they can read and write data very quickly. The read/write head is positioned very close to the spinning disks so that it can read or write data to the disks quickly and accurately.
The Dell 400-ASGX hard drive uses a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface to connect to the computer system. SAS is a high-speed interface that is designed specifically for use in enterprise-level computer systems. It provides a fast and reliable connection between the hard drive and the computer system.
Key features of the Dell 400-ASGX hard drive
There are several key features of the Dell 400-ASGX hard drive that make it suitable for use in enterprise-level computer systems.
Capacity: The 900GB capacity means that it can store a large amount of data. This is particularly important in enterprise-level computer systems where large amounts of data need to be stored and accessed quickly.
Speed: The 15,000 RPM speed ensures that the hard drive can access data quickly. This is important in enterprise-level computer systems where speed is a key factor in performance.
SAS interface: The SAS interface provides a fast and reliable connection between the hard drive and the computer system. This is particularly important in enterprise-level computer systems where reliability is critical.
512e format: The Dell 400-ASGX hard drive uses the 512e format which means that it has a sector size of 512 bytes and uses emulation to present itself to the computer system as having a sector size of 4K. This allows it to work with legacy systems that are not compatible with the larger 4K sector size.
Hot-plug support: The Dell 400-ASGX hard drive supports hot-plugging which means that it can be added or removed from the computer system while it is still running. This is particularly useful in enterprise-level computer systems where downtime can be costly.
Benefits of using the Dell 400-ASGX hard drive
There are several benefits to using the Dell 400-ASGX hard drive in enterprise-level computer systems.
Fast access times: The 15,000 RPM speed of the hard drive ensures that data can be accessed quickly. This is particularly important in enterprise-level computer systems where speed is critical.
Reliability: The SAS interface and the 512e format ensure that the hard drive is reliable and that data can be accessed and stored safely.
