Description
Product Specifications
The Dell 7RNDN is a hard drive designed for use in Dell servers and storage systems. This hard drive has a capacity of 1 terabyte (TB) and a rotational speed of 7,200 revolutions per minute (RPM). It also features a Near-Line SAS-12GBPS interface and is hot-pluggable. In this article, we will discuss the key features and benefits of the Dell 7RNDN hard drive in detail.
Capacity
The Dell 7RNDN hard drive has a capacity of 1 terabyte (TB). This means that it can store up to 1 trillion bytes of data. For reference, a typical MP3 song takes up about 3-4 megabytes (MB) of storage, while a high-quality movie can take up to 5 gigabytes (GB) of storage. Therefore, a 1TB hard drive can hold approximately 200,000 songs or 200 high-quality movies.
Rotational Speed
The rotational speed of a hard drive is measured in revolutions per minute (RPM). The Dell 7RNDN hard drive has a rotational speed of 7,200 RPM. This means that the platters inside the hard drive rotate 7,200 times per minute. A higher RPM generally means faster data transfer rates, as the data can be read and written to the hard drive more quickly. This makes the Dell 7RNDN hard drive ideal for applications that require fast access to data.
Near-Line SAS-12GBPS Interface
The Dell 7RNDN hard drive uses a Near-Line SAS-12GBPS interface. SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a type of interface used for connecting hard drives to servers and storage systems. The Near-Line SAS interface provides high-speed data transfer rates of up to 12 gigabits per second (Gbps). This means that data can be transferred to and from the hard drive quickly and efficiently, making it ideal for high-performance applications.
Hot-Plug Capability
The Dell 7RNDN hard drive is hot-pluggable, which means that it can be removed and replaced while the server or storage system is still running. This makes it easy to replace a faulty hard drive or add additional storage capacity without having to shut down the system. Hot-plug capability can save time and reduce downtime, which is especially important in mission-critical applications.
Benefits of the Dell 7RNDN Hard Drive
The Dell 7RNDN hard drive offers several key benefits, including:
- High Capacity: With a capacity of 1TB, the Dell 7RNDN hard drive provides ample storage space for large amounts of data.
- Fast Data Transfer Rates: The Near-Line SAS-12GBPS interface and 7,200 RPM rotational speed of the Dell 7RNDN hard drive ensure fast data transfer rates, making it ideal for high-performance applications.
- Hot-Plug Capability: The hot-pluggable design of the Dell 7RNDN hard drive makes it easy to replace faulty drives or add additional storage capacity without having to shut down the system.
- Compatibility: The Dell 7RNDN hard drive is designed for use in Dell servers and storage systems, making it easy to integrate into existing infrastructure.
