Description
Overview of 400-AVHE Dell Hard Drive
The 400-AVHE Dell 2.4TB hard drive is a high-performance, high-capacity SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) hard drive with a spindle speed of 10,000 RPM and a cache of 256MB. It is designed for use in enterprise-level servers, workstations and storage arrays, where high-speed data access and large storage capacity are required.
This hard drive is equipped with a SAS 12Gbps interface, which allows for faster data transfer rates compared to other interfaces such as SATA. Additionally, it has a 512E format, which means the hard drive is designed for use with 512-byte sector size host-based applications and operating systems, providing a good compatibility.
The 400-AVHE Dell 2.4TB hard drive is built to withstand heavy use in demanding environments, and it is designed for high-availability and mission-critical applications. It has a robust design, with features such as advanced write caching and power-loss protection, to ensure data integrity and reliability.
Spindle Speed and Cache
Spindle speed refers to the rotation speed of the hard drive’s disk platters, measured in rotations per minute (RPM). The spindle speed of the 400-AVHE Dell 2.4TB hard drive is 10,000 RPM. This high spindle speed allows for faster data access and improved performance compared to lower RPM hard drives.
Cache is a high-speed memory buffer that stores frequently accessed data for quick retrieval. The 400-AVHE Dell 2.4TB hard drive has a cache of 256MB. This large cache size helps to improve the drive’s performance by reducing the number of times the drive needs to access the disk platters for data. The larger the cache, the more data can be stored, allowing for faster data access.
Performance and Reliability
Performance and reliability are key factors to consider when choosing a hard drive, and the 400-AVHE Dell 2.4TB hard drive offers excellent performance and reliability.
Performance-wise, the high spindle speed of 10,000 RPM and large cache size of 256MB work together to provide fast data access and improved performance. The SAS 12Gbps interface also allows for faster data transfer rates compared to other interfaces, such as SATA. Additionally, the hard drive’s 512E format helps to ensure compatibility with 512-byte sector size host-based applications and operating systems, which also contribute to the drive’s performance.
In terms of reliability, the 400-AVHE Dell 2.4TB hard drive is designed for use in enterprise-level servers, workstations and storage arrays, where high-availability and mission-critical applications are required. The hard drive is built to withstand heavy use in demanding environments and has features such as advanced write caching and power-loss protection to ensure data integrity and reliability. Additionally, the drive is backed by a warranty from Dell and has a reputation for its reliability and durability, which can be seen in customer reviews.
