Description
More Information
The Dell 85KG0 12TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB 512E LFF (Large Form Factor) Hard Drive is a high-capacity and high-performance storage device designed for use in enterprise-level servers and storage arrays. The drive has a storage capacity of 12TB, which allows for the storage of large amounts of data.
The drive utilizes the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which provides a high data transfer rate of 12 Gbps. This interface is commonly used in enterprise storage systems and is designed for high-speed data transfer and reliability. The SAS interface also allows for the drive to be connected to a SAS controller which enables the drive to be part of a RAID configuration, this can improve the overall data protection and availability.
The HDD operates at a rotational speed of 7.2k RPM, which provides fast data access and transfer rates. This makes it suitable for use in high-performance computing and data-intensive applications. The drive also has a large cache of 256MB which helps to further improve performance by caching frequently accessed data.
This drive also has a large form factor (LFF) which is usually used in enterprise storage systems, as it’s physically larger than the standard 3.5-inch form factor and allows for more storage capacity and performance. Additionally, the drive is formatted in 512E format, which is optimized for use in enterprise storage systems and is compatible with most SAS and SATA host systems.
It is important to note that the reliability of a hard drive can be affected by a number of factors including environmental conditions, usage patterns, and how well it is maintained. To ensure maximum reliability, it is important to use the drive in a controlled environment, follow recommended usage patterns, and properly maintain the drive.
High Performance & RAID Facilities
Hard Drive is a high-performance HDD that can be used in a RAID configuration. It has a storage capacity of 12TB, a rotational speed of 7200 RPM, and a data transfer rate of 12GB/s using SAS interface. The drive also has a buffer size of 256MB and uses the Large Form Factor (LFF) 3.5-inch form factor and the 512E sector format, which is designed for use in enterprise-level storage systems. It can be used in a RAID configuration to provide added data protection and performance. The 512E sector format allows for larger storage capacities and improved error correction, ensuring data integrity and preventing data loss.
Backup & Restore Facilities
The Dell 12TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB 512E LFF (Large Form Factor) Hard Drive can be used for backup and restore operations in a Dell server or storage array that supports 12Gbps SAS hard drives. The drive can be configured as a backup destination for data, and the data can be easily restored in case of data loss or corruption. The 512E format, which stands for 512-byte emulated, allows this drive to work with systems that only support 512-byte sector size, while internally still using larger 4K sectors. This improves the drive’s performance and reliability, as well as its ability to store more data.
It is recommended to use backup software such as Dell EMC Data Protection Suite, Dell EMC NetWorker, Dell EMC Integrated Data Protection Appliance (IDPA) DP4400, Dell EMC IDPA DP4800, Dell EMC IDPA DP6600, Dell EMC IDPA DP8800, Dell EMC IDPA DP9000, Dell EMC Data Domain, Dell EMC Avamar, Dell EMC Data Protection Software, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for Microsoft, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for Oracle, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for SAP, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for VMWare, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for OpenStack, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for Nutanix, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for Commvault, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for IBM Spectrum Protect, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for Rubrik, Dell EMC Data Protection Software for Act
