Description
Details Information
The Dell RN828 is a hard drive manufactured by Dell. It has a storage capacity of 300GB and a rotation speed of 10,000 RPM. It uses the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface with a data transfer rate of 3 Gbps and it has a buffer size of 16MB. It is designed to be used as an internal hard drive.This drive has a rotation speed of 10,000 RPM which is faster than a typical desktop hard drive that spins at 7200 RPM. This faster rotation speed allows for improved performance and faster data access times.
The drive uses the SAS interface, which is a point-to-point interface that is commonly used in enterprise-level servers and storage systems. It supports a data transfer rate of 3 Gbps which is slower than the traditional SAS 6Gbps and SAS 12Gbps.The drive has a buffer size of 16MB which is used as a temporary storage area for data being transferred between the computer and the hard drive. A larger buffer size can help improve performance by allowing the drive to cache more data.It is an internal drive, designed to be used inside the server or storage system.
Performance and Reliability
The Dell RN828 10K RPM 16MB 300GB SAS 3GBPS Hard Drive is designed to provide high performance for enterprise-level servers and storage systems.The drive also has a buffer size of 16MB which is used as a temporary storage area for data being transferred between the computer and the hard drive. A larger buffer size can help improve performance by allowing the drive to cache more data.
The drive uses the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which supports a data transfer rate of 3 Gbps. While this is slower than traditional SAS interfaces, which typically support transfer rates of 6 Gbps or 12 Gbps, it’s still able to provide fast data transfer between the hard drive and the host system, resulting in improved overall system performance.
It’s important to note that the drive’s performance will also depend on the capabilities of the host system and the SAS controller that is used.
Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS)
The Dell RN828 hard drive uses the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface. SAS is a point-to-point interface that is commonly used in enterprise-level servers and storage systems. It provides faster data transfer rates and improved scalability compared to traditional SATA interfaces, making it well-suited for use in high-performance and mission-critical applications. The Dell product supports a data transfer rate of 3 Gbps which is slower than the traditional SAS 6Gbps and SAS 12Gbps. It’s important to note that the drive’s performance will also depend on the capabilities of the host system and the SAS controller that is used.
