Description
More Information
The Dell 400-BLKT is an 18TB hard drive that uses the SATA interface with a data transfer rate of 6 Gbps. It has a rotation speed of 7200 RPM, which is faster than typical consumer hard drives (usually 5400 RPM) and allows for faster data access. The hard drive is also hot-plug capable, which means it can be removed and replaced while the system is still powered on, without disrupting operations. This feature is useful in enterprise and data center environments where uptime is critical. It is designed for high-availability use cases and can be used in servers and storage systems. It is compatible with Dell PowerEdge servers and Dell EMC storage systems. It can be used for a variety of applications, including data storage, backup, and archiving, as well as other data-intensive workloads. It is ideal for use in high-availability environments, such as data centers and enterprise storage systems, where uptime is critical and fast data access is required. It has a high storage capacity and high-performance, it can handle data-intensive workloads, such as, High-definition video, Backup, and archiving, and more.
Hot-Swap Compatible Drive
The Dell 18TB SATA 6 Gbps 7.2k RPM Hot Plug Hard Drive is likely compatible with systems that support the SATA interface and have the necessary hardware to support a hot-swappable drive. As the hard drive is specifically designed for Dell systems, it is compatible with Dell PowerEdge Servers, Dell PowerVault Storage Arrays, and Dell Compellent Storage Center.
It is important to check with the manufacturer or consult the system’s documentation to ensure compatibility before purchasing this hard drive. It’s highly recommended to check the technical specifications of your system and compare them with the drive’s to ensure that it will function correctly with your system, including compatibility with the SATA interface, the power and cooling requirements, and the available space for the drive. It’s also important to check the firmware and driver versions to ensure that they are compatible with the hard drive and that you have the necessary hardware and software to support a hot-swappable drive.
High Performance
The performance of a Dell 18 terabyte (TB) hard drive with a SATA interface, 6 gigabits per second (GB/s) data transfer rate, and 7,200 revolutions per minute (RPM) rotational speed will depend on several factors, including the specific model of the drive and the usage scenario.
In general, the drive will have a fast data transfer rate of 6 GB/s and fast data access due to the high rotational speed of 7,200 RPM. This makes the drive suitable for use in enterprise-level storage and server environments that require high-performance storage solutions.
The high capacity of 18TB will allow for storing a large amount of data, this can be useful for data backup, archiving and other large-scale storage needs, but it can also affect the performance if the drive is not properly optimized.
It is worth noting that the performance of a hard drive can be affected by factors such as the state of the hard drive, fragmentation of data, and the workload on the server or storage system. In order to optimize the performance of the drive, it is recommended to regularly maintain and update the firmware, perform regular disk defragmentation and use appropriate software to monitor the performance of the drive.
