Description
Details Information
The ST9900605SS Dell 900GB is a 10K RPM hard drive with a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface and 6 Gb/s data transfer rate. It has a 64MB cache buffer which allows for faster data access and improved performance. This drive is designed for use in enterprise-level servers and storage systems, it is also suitable for use as primary drive for the Operating System and also for storage. The high speed of this drive 10K RPM, along with its SAS interface and large cache buffer, makes it a good choice for environments that require high performance and high-capacity storage.
High-performance
The ST9900605SS Dell 900GB is a high-performance hard drive due to its 10,000 RPM spindle speed, SAS interface with 6 Gb/s data transfer rate, and a large 64MB cache buffer. The 10,000 RPM spindle speed is faster than the 7,200 RPM common for most hard drives, which allows for faster data access and improved overall performance compared to slower hard drives.
The SAS interface with 6 Gb/s data transfer rate enables faster data transfer to and from the hard drive, which can be beneficial in enterprise environments where large amounts of data need to be moved quickly. The 64MB cache buffer allows for faster data access and improved performance in multi-user environments.
The 900GB storage capacity also allows for a large amount of storage space, which can be beneficial in enterprise storage environments where large amounts of data need to be stored.
Overall, the Dell ST9900605SS is a high-performance hard drive that can provide improved performance and reliability for enterprise-level servers and storage systems that require a high-performance and high-capacity storage solution.
General Compatibility
The ST9900605SS Dell 900GB is a hard drive with a 10,000 RPM spindle speed, SAS interface with 6 Gb/s data transfer rate, and a 64MB cache buffer. It is compatible with servers and storage systems that have a SAS interface and support 3.5-inch hard drives.
It is specifically designed for use in enterprise-level servers and storage systems. The drive is compatible with most SAS-enabled systems, but it’s important to check the system’s documentation and/or consult with the vendor to confirm compatibility before installing the hard drive.
It’s important to check the drive form factor, size, interface and buffer compatibility with the system you want to install it on. Also, the drive’s controller should be capable of handling the speed of the drive, otherwise, this could cause performance issues.
It’s important to note that even though the drive may be technically compatible with other systems, the drive being specifically designed for use in enterprise-level servers and storage systems means it is optimized for use in those specific systems and may provide better performance and reliability when used in those systems.
