Description
Product Details of the Dell 5X3CV
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid 1.2TB 10K RPM SAS-12GBPS 2.5inch In 3.5inch Hybrid Carrier Form Factor Hot-Plug Hard Disk Drive is a high-performance storage device designed for use in 13G Poweredge Servers. This article will discuss in detail the various features and benefits of this hard drive, including its form factor, interface, storage capacity, speed, hot-plug design, compatibility, and other important considerations.
Form Factor and Interface
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive has a 2.5-inch form factor, but it comes with a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier form factor. This hybrid carrier allows it to be used in servers that only have 3.5-inch drive bays, without requiring any additional brackets or adapters. It also has a SAS-12GBPS interface, which allows for data transfer speeds of up to 12 gigabits per second. This interface is ideal for high-performance storage devices that require fast data access.
Storage Capacity and Speed
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive has a storage capacity of 1.2 terabytes (TB), which is suitable for storing large amounts of data such as databases, applications, and multimedia files. Additionally, it has a spindle speed of 10,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), which is faster than traditional hard drives with speeds of 7,200 RPM or 5,400 RPM. The high spindle speed allows for faster data access and reduces the time it takes for applications to load and execute.
Hot-Pluggable Design
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive is designed to be hot-pluggable, which means it can be inserted and removed from a server without requiring a shutdown. This is particularly useful in data centers and other mission-critical environments where downtime is not an option. The hot-plug design also allows IT administrators to replace faulty hard drives without interrupting the server’s operation.
Compatibility
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive is designed for use in 13G Poweredge Servers. It is also compatible with systems that support SAS interfaces and have a 2.5-inch drive bay. It is important to check the compatibility of the hard drive with the system before purchasing to ensure proper functioning.
Hybrid Technology
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive features hybrid technology, which combines solid-state drive (SSD) and hard disk drive (HDD) technologies to provide high performance and capacity. This technology works by using the SSD portion of the drive as a cache for frequently accessed data, while storing less frequently accessed data on the HDD portion of the drive. This results in faster data access times and improved overall system performance.
RAID Support
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive supports RAID (redundant array of independent disks) configurations, which allows for data redundancy and improved data protection. RAID configurations can also improve system performance by allowing multiple hard drives to work together as a single unit.
Power Consumption
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive has a low power consumption of 9 watts during operation, which helps to reduce energy costs and lower the overall carbon footprint of a data center or server room.
Noise and Vibration Levels
The 5X3CV Dell Hybrid Hard Disk Drive has low noise and vibration levels, which makes it suitable for use in quiet environments such as offices and libraries. It also has a robust design that can withstand shock and vibration, making it ideal for use in harsh environments.
