Product Information to M21K6 Dell 2.4TB
M21K6 Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB Buffer is a high-performance hard disk drive with a 2.5-inch form factor and a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier for M factor hot-plug. It comes with a tray that enables easy installation and replacement of the hard disk drive in the server. This hard disk drive is designed to provide high-speed data transfer, large storage capacity, and advanced security features for enterprise-level applications.
Capacity and Speed
The M21K6 Dell hard disk drive has a storage capacity of 2.4TB, which is suitable for storing large amounts of data. It also features a rotational speed of 10,000 RPM (revolutions per minute), which enables it to access data quickly and transfer data at high speeds. This makes it an ideal hard disk drive for applications that require fast data access and processing, such as databases and virtualization.
SAS-12GBPS Interface and 256MB Buffer
The M21K6 Dell hard disk drive uses a SAS-12GBPS interface to connect to the server. SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a high-speed data transfer interface that is commonly used in enterprise-level storage systems. The 12GBPS transfer rate of the interface allows for fast data transfer between the hard disk drive and the server.
The hard disk drive also features a 256MB buffer, which acts as a temporary storage area for data. The buffer helps to improve the performance of the hard disk drive by reducing the number of times it needs to access the disk to retrieve data.
Self-Encrypting FIPS140 2.5 inch
The M21K6 Dell hard disk drive comes with self-encrypting FIPS140 2.5-inch technology. FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) is a set of guidelines and standards for computer systems used by the U.S. federal government. FIPS140 is a standard for cryptographic modules that provide secure encryption for sensitive data.
Self-encrypting technology ensures that data stored on the hard disk drive is encrypted automatically, without the need for any additional software or hardware. This helps to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access or theft.
In 3.5 inch Hybrid Carrier for M Factor Hot-Plug
The M21K6 Dell hard disk drive comes with a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier for M factor hot-plug. The hybrid carrier is designed to fit into a 3.5-inch drive bay in a server and provides support for M factor hot-plug.
M factor hot-plug is a feature that allows the hard disk drive to be added or removed from the server without the need to power down the system. This makes it easy to replace a faulty hard disk drive or add additional storage capacity to the server.
Compatibility
The M21K6 Dell hard disk drive is compatible with a wide range of Dell servers, including the PowerEdge R630, R730, R730XD, T630, and M630. It is also compatible with other SAS-based storage systems that support 2.5-inch hard disk drives.
In Summary, the M21K6 Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB Buffer 512E self-encrypting FIPS140 2.5-inch in 3.5-inch hybrid carrier for M factor hot-plug hard disk drive with tray is a high-performance hard disk drive that is designed to provide large storage capacity, fast data transfer, and advanced security features for enterprise-level applications.
