Dell 400-AUZQ 3.84TB TLC SATA 6GBPS Solid State Drive 2.5inch Hot Swap Read Intensive | Refurbished

TLC (Triple-Level Cell) NAND is a type of flash memory that stores three bits of data per cell, which allows for a higher density of storage compared to other types of NAND flash memory that store fewer bits per cell. This increased storage density makes TLC NAND a cost-effective solution, as more data can be stored in a smaller physical space.

However, the trade-off for this cost-effectiveness is a decrease in performance compared to other types of NAND flash memory, such as MLC (Multi-Level Cell) and SLC (Single-Level Cell). TLC NAND has slower write speeds and a lower endurance limit, meaning it can sustain fewer write cycles before performance degradation occurs.

Despite these limitations, TLC NAND is still a suitable option for many applications that require a balance of cost-effectiveness and performance, such as read-intensive workloads. The 400-AUZQ Dell 3.84TB SATA SSD uses TLC NAND to provide a cost-effective solution for demanding applications that require large amounts of storage.

6GBPS SATA Interface for Fast Data Transfer

The 6Gbps SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) interface is the latest version of the SATA interface and provides a faster data transfer rate compared to previous versions of SATA. The 6Gbps SATA interface supports a maximum data transfer rate of 6 gigabits per second, which is approximately double the speed of the 3Gbps SATA interface and six times the speed of the 1.5Gbps SATA interface.

The 400-AUZQ Dell 3.84TB SATA SSD features a 6Gbps SATA interface, which allows for faster data transfer rates and improved overall performance compared to SATA SSDs with slower interfaces. This makes the 400-AUZQ Dell 3.84TB SATA SSD a suitable option for demanding applications that require fast data transfer rates, such as high-performance computing and data-intensive workloads.

2.5-inch Form Factor for Easy Hot Swap

The 2.5-inch form factor is a standardized size for solid-state drives (SSDs) and hard disk drives (HDDs) that are used in laptop and desktop computers. The 2.5-inch form factor provides a compact and lightweight solution for storage that is easy to handle and install.

The 400-AUZQ Dell 3.84TB SATA SSD features a 2.5-inch form factor, which makes it easy to hot swap, or replace, with other drives in a system. Hot swapping allows for easy maintenance and upgrades without the need to power down the system, increasing uptime and minimizing downtime. This feature makes the 400-AUZQ Dell 3.84TB SATA SSD an attractive option for server and data center deployments where downtime needs to be kept to a minimum.
