Description
Introduction to 1MG200-15 Hard Disk Drive
The 1MG200-151 Enterprise Performance 300 GB hard disk drive is manufactured by Seagate, one of the leading manufacturers of hard drives. It is designed for enterprise-level storage applications that require high performance and reliability. The hard drive uses the Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a popular interface used for connecting hard drives to computers. The SAS interface is capable of transmitting data at a speed of up to 12 Gigabytes per second (12Gbps), which is much faster than the older Parallel SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) interface.
Form Factor
The 1MG200-151 Enterprise Performance 300 GB hard drive has a form factor of 2.5 inches. This is a standard form factor for laptop and server hard drives. The smaller form factor allows for more efficient use of space and power, which is important in server environments where multiple hard drives are often used.
Rotational Speed
The hard drive has a rotational speed of 15000 revolutions per minute (RPM). The rotational speed refers to the number of times the platters inside the hard drive spin in a minute. A higher RPM means that the hard drive can read and write data faster because the read/write head can access data more quickly. However, higher RPMs also mean that the hard drive generates more heat and noise, which can be a concern in certain environments.
Buffer Size
The 1MG200-151 Enterprise Performance 300 GB hard drive has a buffer size of 128 MB. The buffer size, also known as the cache size, refers to the amount of memory on the hard drive that is used to temporarily store data that is frequently accessed. The larger the buffer size, the more data the hard drive can store in memory, which can improve its performance by reducing the time it takes to access frequently used data.
SAS Interface
The SAS interface is a popular interface used for connecting hard drives to computers. It is capable of transmitting data at a speed of up to 12 Gigabytes per second (12Gbps), which is much faster than the older Parallel SCSI interface. The SAS interface also supports hot-swapping, which means that a hard drive can be removed or added without having to power down the computer.
Serial-Attached SCSI 3.0
The 1MG200-151 Enterprise Performance 300 GB hard drive uses the Serial-Attached SCSI 3.0 interface. Serial-Attached SCSI 3.0 is the third generation of the SAS interface and is capable of transmitting data at a speed of up to 12 Gigabytes per second (12Gbps). It also includes new features such as Data Integrity Field (DIF), which can improve the reliability of hard drives by detecting and correcting errors that occur during data transmission.
Data Integrity Field (DIF)
The 1MG200-151 Enterprise Performance 300 GB hard drive supports Data Integrity Field (DIF). DIF is a feature of the SAS interface that adds extra information to the data being transmitted to allow the receiver to detect and correct any errors that occur during transmission. This can improve the reliability of hard drives by reducing the risk of data corruption or loss.
