Description
Overview of the Fujitsu MAT3300NC SCSI Hard Drive
The MAT3300NC Fujitsu 300GB 10K RPM 8MB Buffer Form Factor Ultra 320 80Pin SCSI Hard Drive is a high-performance storage device designed for use in servers and other enterprise-class computing systems. This hard drive is equipped with advanced features and technologies that make it an ideal choice for businesses that require fast, reliable storage solutions. In this article, we will explain the key features of this hard drive and its benefits for businesses.
Capacity and Speed
The MAT3300NC Fujitsu hard drive has a storage capacity of 300GB, which is sufficient for most business applications. It spins at a speed of 10,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), which means that it can deliver fast data transfer rates and quick access times. This makes it ideal for applications that require high-speed data access, such as databases, email servers, and web servers.
Buffer Size
The hard drive has an 8MB buffer size, which is a temporary storage area that the hard drive uses to store data that is waiting to be written to or read from the disk. A larger buffer size can help to improve the hard drive’s performance by reducing the number of times that it needs to access the disk. This can result in faster data transfer rates and improved system responsiveness.
Form Factor
The MAT3300NC Fujitsu hard drive has a form factor of Ultra 320, which is a type of SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) interface that is used in servers and other enterprise-class computing systems. The Ultra 320 interface provides a high-speed data transfer rate of up to 320 megabytes per second (MB/s), which is faster than many other types of interfaces.
80Pin SCSI Interface
The hard drive uses an 80Pin SCSI interface, which is a type of connector that is used to connect the hard drive to the server or other computing system. The 80Pin interface provides a reliable and secure connection that can help to ensure that data is transferred quickly and without errors.
Reliability
The MAT3300NC Fujitsu hard drive is designed to be highly reliable, with a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 1.4 million hours. This means that the hard drive is expected to operate for an average of 1.4 million hours before it fails. In addition, the hard drive uses advanced technologies such as error-correcting code (ECC) and predictive failure analysis (PFA) to help detect and correct errors before they can cause data loss or system downtime.
Compatibility
The MAT3300NC Fujitsu hard drive is compatible with a wide range of server and computing systems. It is designed to work with systems that support the Ultra 320 SCSI interface, and it can be used in both hot-swappable and non-hot-swappable drive bays. In addition, the hard drive is compatible with a variety of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Unix.
Benefits for Businesses
