Description
Product Overview of the Dell ST600MM0069
The ST600MM0069 Dell Hard Drive is a high-performance hard disk drive designed for enterprise use. It is part of the Dell PowerEdge line of hard drives, and it is manufactured by Seagate Technology. The ST600MM0069 is known for its speed, reliability, and high storage capacity. In this article, we will explore the technical specifications of this HDD in detail.
Storage Capacity
The ST600MM0069 Dell Hard Drive has a storage capacity of 600 gigabytes (GB). This means that it can store up to 600 billion bytes of data. For reference, 1 GB is equivalent to 1,000 megabytes (MB). The storage capacity of the ST600MM0069 makes it suitable for enterprise-level applications that require a large amount of storage space, such as data centers and cloud storage services.
Interface
The ST600MM0069 Dell Hard Drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface. SAS is a high-speed interface technology that was designed for enterprise-level applications. It has a maximum data transfer rate of 12 gigabits per second (Gbps), which is significantly faster than other interface technologies such as SATA. The SAS interface makes the ST600MM0069 a popular choice for high-performance enterprise applications that require fast data access.
Form Factor
The form factor of a hard disk drive refers to its physical dimensions and shape. The ST600MM0069 Dell Hard Drive has a form factor of 2.5 inches, which is a standard size for enterprise-level hard disk drives. The 2.5-inch form factor allows the drive to fit into most server racks and blade servers. The drive is also relatively lightweight, weighing in at just 200 grams.
Rotational Speed
The rotational speed of a hard disk drive refers to how fast the disks inside the drive spin. The ST600MM0069 Dell Hard Drive has a rotational speed of 10,000 revolutions per minute (RPM). This is a relatively fast speed, and it allows the drive to access data quickly. A higher RPM typically translates to faster read and write speeds, which can improve overall performance.
Cache Size
The cache size, also known as the buffer size, of a hard disk drive refers to the amount of memory the drive has available to temporarily store data. The ST600MM0069 Dell Hard Drive has a cache size of 128 megabytes (MB). This means that the drive can temporarily store up to 128 MB of data before it needs to write it to the disk. A larger cache size can help improve performance by reducing the number of times the drive needs to access the disk.
Reliability
One of the key features of the ST600MM0069 Dell Hard Drive is its high reliability. The drive is designed to operate continuously in demanding enterprise environments, and it has a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours. MTBF is a measure of how long a device is expected to operate before it fails. A higher MTBF indicates a more reliable device.
The ST600MM0069 also includes several features that help improve its reliability. For example, it has a Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) option, which allows users to encrypt data on the drive to help protect it from unauthorized access. It also has a PowerChoice technology, which helps reduce power consumption and prolong the life of the drive.
