Description
More Feature
The Dell 400-BKZK is an 18 terabyte (TB) hard drive that uses SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface and spinning at 7200 RPM (Revolutions per Minute). It has a 12 Gbps (Gigabits per second) transfer rate and is designed to be hot-plugged, meaning it can be removed and replaced while the system is still running. It is commonly used in enterprise storage systems and servers.
The 12 Gbps SAS interface allows for fast communication between the hard drive and the host server, allowing for quick data access and retrieval. The hot-plug capability enables the hard drive to be removed and replaced without having to shut down the system, providing increased uptime and reducing downtime for maintenance.
Additionally, the drive is also backwards compatible with 6 Gbps SAS and 3 Gbps SAS, which allows the drive to be used in older systems while still taking advantage of the increased performance of the 12 Gbps SAS interface.
The 18TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive is a high-performance and reliable option for enterprise storage and servers that require large amounts of storage and high performance.
Drive Compatibility
The Dell 18TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive is compatible with servers and storage systems that support SAS 12 Gbps interfaces and have a SAS backplane or controller. It is recommended that you check with your server or storage system vendor for specific compatibility information, as well as the firmware version of your SAS controller and ensure that the drive is supported by your RAID controller as well as the RAID level you are using.
The “Hot-Plug” feature allows the drive to be replaced without having to power down the system which is typically used in data centers and enterprise storage systems.
It is also important to note that this drive is designed for use in enterprise and data center environments, and may not be compatible with consumer-grade computer systems.
This is recommended to check the system documentation and ensure that the drive is supported by your RAID controller as well as the RAID level you are using.
It’s also worth noting that the 18TB capacity of this drive may not be suitable for systems with limited hard drive bays or those with high-performance workloads.
