High-performance
The IBM 600GB SAS 6GBPS 15K Hot Swap Hard Drive (part number 49Y1870) is designed for high-performance, mission-critical environments. With a rotation speed of 15,000 RPM and a SAS interface with a data transfer rate of 6 Gbps, this drive offers fast data access and high I/O performance. Additionally, the drive’s SAS interface allows for full-duplex data transfer and the ability to connect to multiple drives using a single cable, which can further improve performance. However, it is worth noting that the performance of this drive will be lower compared to a 12 Gbps SAS interface.
The drive also offers hot-swap capability, which allows the drive to be replaced while the system is still running, minimizing downtime.
General Compatibility
The IBM 600GB SAS 6GBPS 15K Hot Swap Hard Drive (part number 49Y1870) is compatible with IBM System x and BladeCenter servers that support SAS hard drives and have a 6 Gbps SAS interface. Additionally, this drive is compatible with IBM’s SAS controllers that support SAS hard drives and hot-swap capability. It is recommended to check with the server or storage system vendor for specific compatibility information before purchasing or installing the drive. It is also important to check for the firmware and driver compatibility of the system and the hard drive. It is also important to check if the drive is supported by the Operating system that you are planning to use. It is always best practice to check the user guide and technical documentation of the server or storage system to ensure compatibility before installing or replacing any hard drive. It is also important to note that this drive uses an older version of SAS interface (6 Gbps) which is slower compared to 12 Gbps SAS interface.
