Description
High Performance
The HGST 12TB 0F29531 hard drive is a high-performance hard drive that is designed for enterprise-grade storage systems and servers. It has a rotation speed of 7.2K RPM (revolutions per minute) and a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface with a data transfer rate of 12 Gbps.
The drive has a large 12TB storage capacity, which is suitable for data-intensive workloads and applications, such as data warehousing, big data analytics, and video surveillance systems. The 7.2K RPM speed helps to provide faster data access and improved performance. It also features a large 256MB cache buffer which allows for faster data access.
This hard drive is also built to meet the demands of high-performance workloads and applications, and it is designed to handle heavy workloads and demanding 24/7 operation. The drive features a high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) which is a metric of a drive’s reliability and is used to predict the expected lifespan of a hard drive.
It is also compatible with most SAS-compatible storage systems and servers, and it is backward-compatible with SAS-6GBPS and SAS-3GBPS. Please note that I couldn’t find any information about the hot-plug feature on this specific model, and it’s always important to check the specific compatibility of the drive with the storage system or server in which it will be used.
Reliability
The HGST 12TB 0F29531 hard drive is designed for exceptional reliability. The 7.2K RPM and SAS-12GBPS interface provide faster data transfer and performance, while the 256MB cache buffer allows for faster data access. The drive also features a high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) which is a metric of a drive’s reliability and is used to predict the expected lifespan of a hard drive. It is designed to handle heavy workloads and demanding 24/7 operation.
The drive also features enhanced error recovery controls, which help to protect data and improve drive performance in high-vibration environments. It is also built with enterprise-grade components that deliver long-term reliability and stability.
The drive is also compatible with most SAS-compatible storage systems and servers, and it is backward-compatible with SAS-6GBPS and SAS-3GBPS. This allows for easy integration into existing storage systems and servers, ensuring compatibility and reducing the risk of data loss or corruption.
Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 12GBPS HDD
Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is a type of interface that connects storage devices, such as hard disk drives (HDDs) to a computer’s motherboard. SAS uses a serial communication protocol and is designed for use in enterprise-grade storage systems and servers.
SAS 12 Gbps (gigabits per second) hard disk drives (HDD) are high-performance storage devices that have a data transfer rate of 12 Gbps. This is faster than the older SAS 6 Gbps and SAS 3 Gbps drives. These drives are designed for high-performance storage solutions and can handle data-intensive workloads and applications, such as data warehousing, big data analytics, and video surveillance systems. They have a faster data transfer rate and improved performance compared to SATA hard disk drives, which have a data transfer rate of 6 Gbps.
SAS 12 Gbps hard disk drives also have a higher level of reliability and durability, making them suitable for use in environments where data availability and uptime are crucial. They are typically more expensive than SATA drives and are used in high-end storage systems and servers. SAS 12 Gbps drives are compatible with most SAS-compatible storage systems and servers and they are backward-compatible with SAS 6 Gbps and SAS 3 Gbps.
