Description
Product Overview
The IBM 00WC009 is an 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS near line hard drive, designed for high-capacity storage and nearline data archiving applications. It offers high storage density and fast data transfer speeds, making it an ideal option for businesses and organizations that require large amounts of storage space for data archiving, backup, and disaster recovery. The drive is compatible with SAS 12GB/s interfaces and can be easily integrated into existing storage systems. Additionally, its nearline storage technology ensures high reliability and performance for long-term data storage.
Storage capacity
The IBM 00WC009 hard drive has a storage capacity of 8 terabytes (TB), which is one of the highest available in the market. This allows businesses and organizations to store large amounts of data, including backups, archives, and long-term storage.
In terms of speed, the drive operates at 7.2K RPM (revolutions per minute), which is a measure of how fast the disk platters inside the drive rotate. This is considered a standard speed for nearline hard drives, and provides a balance of storage density and data transfer speed. The drive also has a SAS interface with 12GB/s data transfer rate, which is a high-speed interface that can handle large amounts of data quickly, making it suitable for high-performance storage systems.
interface and compatibility
The IBM 00WC009 hard drive features a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface with a data transfer rate of 12GB/s, which is a high-speed and highly reliable interface that is widely used in enterprise-level storage systems. SAS is a point-to-point interface, which means that each drive has its own dedicated connection to the controller, providing increased performance and scalability.
The hard drive is compatible with a wide range of servers, storage systems, and other devices that feature SAS 12GB/s interfaces. This allows organizations to easily integrate the hard drive into existing storage infrastructure, providing a cost-effective and seamless storage expansion solution. SAS interface also enables hot-swapping capability, which means that the hard drive can be easily replaced without shutting down the system.
Additionally, the SAS interface also includes features such as advanced data integrity and error detection and correction, which ensure the reliability of the stored data. The SAS interface also enables greater scalability and easy integration with other SAS-based storage devices.
