Description
More Information
The 400-BLBH is a Dell-branded 18 terabyte (TB) hard drive that uses the SATA interface and has a rotational speed of 7,200 revolutions per minute (RPM). It has a data transfer rate of 6 gigabits per second (GB/s) and is designed to be hot-swappable, meaning it can be replaced without shutting down the system. It is designed to be used in enterprise-level storage and server environments, similar to the 400-BLBF and 400-BLBG models that I described earlier. The BLBH is the part number and is used to identify the product.
High Performance
This refers to a Dell-branded hard drive with a capacity of 18 terabytes, a data transfer rate of 6 gigabits per second, and hot plug capability. The hot plug feature allows the drive to be easily replaced while the system is still running, which is useful for servers and other systems that need to remain online. The 6 Gbps transfer rate is fast enough for most uses, but it’s worth noting that this drive’s RPM is not specified. This is important because the RPM (rotations per minute) affects the drive’s overall performance. The higher the RPM, the faster the data transfer rate. It’s important to check with the manufacturer or consult the system’s documentation to ensure compatibility before purchasing this hard drive.
Exceptional Compatibility
The Dell 18TB 6GBPS Hot Plug Hard Drive is compatible with servers and storage systems that support the SATA III (6 Gbps) interface and have an available hot-swap drive bay. This drive is designed for use in enterprise environments and can be used for a variety of applications such as data storage, backup, and archiving.
It is important to check with the server or storage system manufacturer’s documentation to ensure that the system is compatible with this drive and can support its maximum capacity. Also, check that the system has enough power and cooling to support the drive as it requires more power than a typical drive.
It is also important to check the drive’s firmware version to make sure that it is compatible with the system’s BIOS and operating system. If the firmware version is not compatible, it may be necessary to update the firmware or use a different drive.
Overall, the Dell 18TB SATA drive is a high-capacity, high-performance drive that can be used in a variety of enterprise environments, but it’s always good to double-check compatibility before use.
