Description
Product Specifications
The 44W2248 IBM 600GB 15K RPM SAS 6GBPS Hot Swap Hard Drive is a high-performance hard drive designed for enterprise-level storage systems. It offers fast and reliable data access, with a large storage capacity and hot-swapping capability.
Capacity and Speed
The 44W2248 IBM hard drive has a capacity of 600GB, making it suitable for large-scale data storage. It operates at a speed of 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), which is significantly faster than standard desktop hard drives that typically operate at 7200 RPM. This high speed enables faster data access and transfer rates, making it ideal for applications that require intensive data processing and storage, such as enterprise-level databases and virtualization environments.
Interface and Compatibility
The 44W2248 IBM hard drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a high-speed data transfer protocol used in enterprise-level storage systems. This interface provides a faster data transfer rate compared to standard SATA interfaces used in desktop computers. Additionally, the hard drive is compatible with systems that support SAS 6Gbps interface, which is a faster version of the SAS interface.
Hot Swap Capability
The 44W2248 IBM hard drive features a hot swap capability, which means that it can be replaced while the system is still running. This feature enables businesses to replace failed hard drives quickly without having to shut down the entire system, reducing downtime and increasing productivity. Additionally, it allows for easy scalability as businesses can add or remove hard drives without having to turn off the system.
Reliability and Durability
The 44W2248 IBM hard drive is designed for high reliability and durability. It has a Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) of 1.6 million hours, which means that it is expected to last for a long time before failing. Additionally, it has a low error rate and is equipped with advanced error correction technologies to ensure data integrity and reliability. The hard drive is also built to withstand high levels of vibration and shock, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.
Compatibility with IBM Systems
The 44W2248 IBM hard drive is compatible with a range of IBM storage systems, including IBM System x and BladeCenter servers. It is also compatible with a range of other server systems that support SAS interfaces.
In Summary, the 44W2248 IBM 600GB 15K RPM SAS 6GBPS Hot Swap Hard Drive is a high-performance hard drive designed for enterprise-level storage systems. It offers fast data access, high reliability, and durability, making it ideal for applications that require intensive data processing and storage. The hot swap capability enables businesses to replace failed hard drives quickly, reducing downtime and increasing productivity. Additionally, its compatibility with IBM systems makes it an ideal choice for businesses using IBM servers.
