Description
Product Information
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive is a high-performance storage device designed for use in enterprise-level servers and data centers. This drive has a 3.5-inch form factor and operates at a rotational speed of 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM) using the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface with a maximum data transfer rate of 6 gigabits per second (Gbps). In this article, we will explain in detail the various features and specifications of the N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive.
Capacity and Form Factor
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive has a storage capacity of 600 gigabytes (GB), which makes it suitable for use in data-intensive applications such as database servers, data warehousing, and cloud computing. This drive uses a 3.5-inch form factor, which is the standard size for hard drives used in desktop computers and servers. The larger form factor allows for larger platters and more data storage capacity.
Rotational Speed
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive operates at a rotational speed of 15,000 RPM, which is higher than the standard rotational speed for most desktop and enterprise-level hard drives. The higher rotational speed affects the speed at which data can be read from and written to the hard drive. The higher the rotational speed, the faster the data transfer rate.
Interface and Data Transfer Rate
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive uses the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a high-performance interface designed for use in enterprise-level applications. The SAS interface provides a maximum data transfer rate of 6 Gbps, which is faster than the older parallel SCSI interface. The faster data transfer rate allows for quicker data access and faster backup and restore times.
Buffer Size
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive has a buffer size of 16 megabytes (MB), which is a measure of the amount of memory on the hard drive that is used to cache data. The larger the buffer size, the faster the data transfer rate. The buffer size helps to improve the overall performance of the hard drive by reducing the time required to access frequently used data.
Compatibility
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive is compatible with a wide range of servers and storage arrays from various manufacturers, including Dell, HP, and IBM. This drive is also compatible with various operating systems such as Windows, Linux, and Unix. Compatibility is an important factor to consider when choosing a hard drive for use in an enterprise-level environment.
Hot Swapping
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive is hot-swappable, which means that it can be replaced while the server is still running. This feature is particularly useful in enterprise-level environments where downtime can be costly. Hot-swapping allows for quick and easy replacement of failed drives without the need to shut down the server.
Reliability
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive is a reliable storage device that is designed to operate in 24/7 environments. This drive uses advanced technologies such as Error Correction Code (ECC) and S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) to ensure data integrity and prevent data loss. The drive also has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 1.6 million hours, which is a measure of its reliability.
Power Consumption
The N609R Dell 600GB SAS hard drive has a low power consumption, which is an important factor in enterprise-level environments where power consumption can affect operating costs. The drive uses a maximum of 11.7 watts during read/write operations and 7.8 watts during idle periods, making it an energy-efficient choice
