Specifications
Here is an explanation of the key specifications of the Dell T7C3F 16TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS Hot-plug Hard Drive:
- Capacity: The drive has a storage capacity of 16TB which allows for large amounts of data to be stored.
- Interface: The drive uses the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface which supports a data transfer rate of 12 Gbps, making it well-suited for demanding applications such as data warehousing and video surveillance.
- Spindle Speed: The drive has a spindle speed of 7.2K RPM (revolutions per minute). This is the speed at which the disk platters inside the drive rotate. A higher RPM results in faster data access times.
- Form Factor: The drive has a 3.5 inches form factor which is the size of the drive. This form factor is designed to fit in standard drive bays of servers and storage arrays.
- Data Transfer Rate: The drive supports a data transfer rate of up to 12 Gbps, which is the maximum speed at which data can be transferred between the drive and the host system.
- Average Seek Time: The average seek time is 8.5 ms. It is a measure of the time it takes for the drive’s read/write head to move to a specific location on the disk. A lower seek time results in faster data access times.
- Cache: The drive has 256MB of cache, which is a high-speed memory buffer that stores frequently-accessed data for quick retrieval. This improves the drive’s performance by reducing the number of times the drive needs to access the disk platters.
