Product Overview
The 400-AUZZ Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS-12GBPS 512E 256MB Buffer 2.5Inch IN 3.5Inch Hybrid Carrier Form Factor Hot-Plug Hard Disk Drive is an enterprise-level storage solution for PowerEdge Servers. This hard drive is designed to provide high-performance, reliability, and scalability to meet the demands of modern data centers. In this article, we will provide a detailed explanation of the various features of this hard drive, its form factor, compatibility, and performance.
Capacity and Speed
The 400-AUZZ Dell hard drive has a capacity of 2.4TB, which makes it ideal for storing large amounts of data. This drive also has a rotational speed of 10,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), which means it can access data faster than slower drives. The combination of high capacity and speed makes this hard drive an ideal choice for data-intensive applications such as virtualization, database management, and data analytics.
SAS 12Gbps Interface
The 400-AUZZ Dell hard drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 12Gbps interface, which provides a high-speed data transfer rate. The SAS interface also allows for easy integration with existing SAS infrastructure, which makes it ideal for upgrading existing systems. The 12Gbps data transfer rate ensures that data can be read and written quickly, which is essential for high-performance applications.
512e Advanced Format
The 400-AUZZ Dell hard drive uses the 512e advanced format, which means that it emulates the 512-byte sector size of traditional hard drives, while using larger physical sectors of 4KB. This feature improves the overall performance of the drive, and it also ensures that the drive is compatible with older systems that use the 512-byte sector size.
256MB Cache Buffer
The 400-AUZZ Dell hard drive has a cache buffer of 256MB, which means that it can store frequently accessed data in the cache for faster access. The cache buffer also helps to reduce the load on the server’s processor, which can improve overall system performance.
2.5Inch IN 3.5Inch Hybrid Carrier Form Factor
The 400-AUZZ Dell hard drive has a unique form factor that allows it to be installed in both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drive bays. This hybrid carrier form factor provides flexibility in terms of installation, which makes it easier to integrate this hard drive into existing systems. Additionally, the hybrid carrier form factor also allows for hot-swapping, which means that the hard drive can be replaced without shutting down the server.
Hot-Plug Capability
The 400-AUZZ Dell hard drive has a hot-plug capability, which means that it can be removed or replaced while the server is still running. This feature allows for easy maintenance and upgrades, and it also reduces system downtime.
In Summary, the 400-AUZZ Dell hard drive is compatible with a wide range of PowerEdge Servers, including the PowerEdge R630, R730, R730XD, T630, and M630. This compatibility ensures that this hard drive can be integrated into existing systems with ease. It is also worth noting that this hard drive is designed specifically for use in enterprise-level environments, which means that it is built to withstand the demands of high-performance applications.
