Description
Features and Specifications
The Dell 9R3D7 is a high-performance solid state drive (SSD) that is designed for use in enterprise storage and data center environments. It has a capacity of 1.92 terabytes (TB), which is a large amount of storage for holding large amounts of data.
The drive uses SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which is a high-speed data transfer technology that is commonly used in enterprise storage systems. It operates at a speed of 12 Gbps, which is faster than the previous generation SAS interface (6 Gbps) and provides faster data transfer rates.
The drive is read-intensive, meaning it is optimized for reading data rather than writing data. This makes it well-suited for applications that involve heavy read operations, such as database queries, data analytics, and video streaming.
The drive uses MLC (Multi-Level Cell) NAND flash technology, which stores multiple bits of data per cell. This technology provides a balance of performance and endurance and is more cost-effective than SLC (Single-Level Cell) NAND flash technology, which stores only one bit per cell.
The drive is also hot-plug capable, meaning it can be removed and replaced without shutting down the system. This feature allows for easy maintenance and upgrades without interrupting system operation.
Performance and Reliability
The 9R3D7 Dell 1.92TB SAS 12GBPS Read Intensive MLC Hot Plug SSD is a solid-state drive that offers high performance and reliability. This drive uses MLC (multi-level cell) NAND flash memory, which is known for its high durability and fast read speeds. Additionally, the drive has a large capacity of 1.92TB, which provides ample storage space for your files and applications. The SAS 12GBPS interface provides fast data transfer speeds, and the Read Intensive SSD is optimized for read-intensive workloads.
The hot-plug feature allows you to replace or upgrade the drive without having to shut down the system, providing additional operational flexibility. This drive is also designed to work in enterprise environments, making it ideal for use in data centers or other high-performance computing environments. Overall, this drive is an excellent choice for users looking for high-performance, high-capacity and reliable storage solution for read-intensive workloads.
Compatibility and Installation
The Dell 9R3D7 is a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) SSD (Solid State Drive) and it is designed to be compatible with systems that support SAS interfaces and have a 12 Gbps SAS controller. This includes Dell PowerEdge servers and other enterprise storage systems that support SAS drives.
When installing the 9R3D7 SSD, you will need to make sure that the system’s BIOS and firmware are up to date. Additionally, you will need to check that the system has the necessary SAS controller and connectors to support the drive. The drive should be installed in the appropriate drive bay in the system and connected to the SAS controller using the appropriate SAS cables.
It’s also important to note that the drive is hot-plug capable, which means it can be removed and replaced without shutting down the system. This feature allows for easy maintenance and upgrades without interrupting system operation.
As for the physical installation, you’ll need to connect the drive to the SAS controller using the appropriate SAS cables, and secure the drive in the drive bay with screws. Once the drive is connected and secured, you will be able to boot the system and configure the drive using the appropriate tools and software.
It’s always recommended to consult with the server or storage system’s manual and the drive’s manual for specific instructions and compatibility information.
