Description
Details Information
The Dell 400-ASMZ is a 2TB hard drive that uses the SATA-6GBps interface with a maximum data transfer rate of 6 Gbps and has a rotational speed of 7,200 RPM. It has a 512n format and no cache memory. This hard drive is designed for use in Dell PowerEdge servers and other enterprise storage systems that use the SATA interface. Its 2TB storage capacity is suitable for storing large amount of data, however, its rotational speed of 7.2K and the absence of cache memory might affect its performance compared to SAS or SSD drives with similar capacities. It is important to check the system’s documentation or the manufacturer to ensure compatibility before installing the hard drive. Additionally, you should also consider the performance requirement of your system and workload before installing this drive as it’s lower than SAS or SSD drives.
General Compatibility
The Dell 400-ASMZ is a 2TB hard drive that uses the SATA-6GBps interface, which provides a maximum data transfer rate of 6 Gbps. It has a rotational speed of 7,200 RPM and a 512n format. It does not have a cache memory.
With a capacity of 2TB, this hard drive is suitable for storing large amounts of data. The 7,200 RPM rotational speed is lower than that of 10,000 RPM SAS or SSD drives, which might affect its performance when it comes to random access of data and the overall speed of the drive. The absence of cache memory also may affect the performance of the drive, as the cache memory is used to temporarily store frequently-accessed data, which can speed up the data access. In general, this drive is designed for capacity oriented workloads, where the priority is to store large amounts of data, rather than high-performance applications. It’s important to note that for performance-sensitive workloads, SSD or SAS drives would be a better option as they have higher rotational speeds and cache memory.
Hot-swap capability
The Dell 400-ASMZ is a 2TB hard drive that uses the SATA-6GBps interface, which is compatible with most servers and storage systems that support the SATA interface. The drive is designed for use in Dell PowerEdge servers and other enterprise storage systems that use the SATA interface, it is compatible with most systems that use the SATA interface, but you should check with the system’s documentation or the manufacturer to ensure compatibility before installing the hard drive. The 512n format of the drive is also compatible with most systems that support the 512n format. It’s important to note that the drive is a 3.5 inches hard drive, so it’s important to check the physical dimensions of the drive and the available space in the system to ensure compatibility. Additionally, this drive is a 7.2K RPM drive, which is slower than SAS or SSD drives, and it doesn’t have a cache memory. Therefore, you should also consider the performance requirement of your system and workload before installing this drive. And also it is important to check if the system you are planning to use it on support the maximum storage capacity of the drive and ensure that the drive is supported by the system firmware and the OS.
