Description
Product Information
The Dell 400-BBFK is a high-performance hard disk drive (HDD) designed for use in Dell’s 13th generation PowerEdge servers. It is a 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS-12GBPS HDD with a 512E format and a 256MB buffer. The drive is designed to be hot-swappable, meaning it can be replaced while the server is still running without causing any interruptions to the system.
Form Factor and Compatibility
The Dell 400-BBFK comes in a 2.5-inch form factor, which makes it a good fit for servers that require high-density storage. However, it also comes with a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier form factor that allows it to be used in servers that only support 3.5-inch drives. This flexibility in form factor makes it easy to install the drive in a wide range of servers.
The 400-BBFK is compatible with Dell’s 13th generation PowerEdge servers, including the R730, R730xd, R630, T630, and others. These servers are designed for use in data centers and other enterprise-level applications, where high-performance storage is essential.
Storage Capacity and Speed
The Dell 400-BBFK offers a storage capacity of 2.4TB, which is ideal for applications that require large amounts of data storage. This makes it well-suited for use in data-intensive applications, such as databases, virtualization, and other enterprise-level applications.
The drive also has a rotational speed of 10,000 RPM, which provides fast read and write speeds. This makes it a good choice for applications that require high-performance storage, such as online transaction processing (OLTP), data warehousing, and other mission-critical applications.
SAS-12GBPS Interface
The Dell 400-BBFK uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface with a data transfer rate of 12Gbps. This interface provides faster data transfer speeds than the previous SAS-6GBPS interface, which is essential for high-performance applications.
512E Format and 256MB Buffer
The Dell 400-BBFK uses a 512E format, which means that it emulates a 512-byte sector size, even though it has a larger physical sector size of 4KB. This helps to improve performance and compatibility with legacy applications that are not optimized for larger sector sizes.
The drive also has a 256MB buffer, which helps to improve performance by allowing the drive to cache frequently accessed data. This helps to reduce latency and improve overall performance.
Hot-Plug and Hybrid Tray
The Dell 400-BBFK is designed to be hot-pluggable, which means that it can be replaced while the server is still running without causing any interruptions to the system. This makes it easy to replace a failed drive or to upgrade to a larger capacity drive without taking the server offline.
The drive also comes with a hybrid tray, which allows it to be used in servers that only support 3.5-inch drives. This tray makes it easy to install the drive in a wide range of servers, without the need for any additional hardware.
In Summary, the Dell 400-BBFK is a high-performance hard disk drive designed for use in Dell’s 13th generation PowerEdge servers. It offers a storage capacity of 2.4TB, a rotational speed of 10,000 RPM, and a SAS-12GBPS interface with a 512E format and a 256MB buffer. It is also hot-pluggable and comes with a hybrid tray, making it easy to install in a wide range of servers. These features make it a good choice for applications that require high-performance storage, such as databases, virtualization
