Description
Enterprise-level features
Enterprise-level features refer to the advanced capabilities and technologies that are built into a hard drive to support the high-demand and high-availability requirements of enterprise environments. The 2KE231-150 Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Ise 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive comes with a range of enterprise-level features that provide enhanced performance, reliability, and data protection.
One of the key enterprise-level features of this hard drive is the SAS-12GBps interface, which provides faster data transfer rates and improved scalability compared to other interfaces like SATA. The drive also features advanced error correction and data protection features, which help to protect your data against errors and other types of damage.
Another enterprise-level feature of this drive is the high storage capacity of 8TB, which allows it to store large amounts of data, making it ideal for backup and archiving applications.
The drive also features a large 256MB buffer which allows for faster data access and improved performance, particularly when working with large files and large amounts of data. Additionally, the 512e ISE (512 Emulation) interface format allows the drive to be used in legacy systems that require 512-byte sector disk drives.
The Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Ise 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive is built for enterprise-level use and is designed to meet the rigorous demands of data centers, cloud and surveillance storage, and other high-availability environments.
Form factor and interface
Form factor refers to the physical dimensions and layout of a hard drive, including its size, shape, and mounting options. The form factor of the 2KE231-150 Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Ise 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive is 3.5 inches, which is a standard size for desktop and enterprise-level hard drives. This form factor allows the drive to be easily installed in a wide range of systems, including servers, workstations, and storage arrays.
An interface, in the context of hard drives, refers to the method by which the drive connects to the host system. The Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Ise 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive uses the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which is a high-speed data transfer protocol designed for use in enterprise-level storage systems. SAS is designed to provide faster data transfer rates and improved scalability compared to other interfaces like SATA. The 12GBps SAS interface provides a maximum data transfer rate of 12 Gbps, which is faster than the 6 Gbps of the standard SAS interface.
The 3.5-inch form factor also allows for easy installation of the drive in a wide range of systems including servers, workstations, and storage arrays. The SAS interface, provides high-speed data transfer and improved scalability, making it suitable for use in enterprise environments where high-performance and data reliability are critical. Additionally, the 512e ISE (512 Emulation) interface format allows the drive to be used in legacy systems that require 512-byte sector disk drives.
Reliability and durability
Reliability and durability are important considerations when choosing a hard drive, as they determine how long the drive will last and how well it will protect your data. The 2KE231-150 Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Ise 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive is designed to be reliable and durable, and it is built to withstand the demands of a wide range of applications.
One of the key features that contribute to the drive’s reliability is its 7200 RPM spindle speed, which enables faster data access and improved performance. The drive also features advanced error correction and data protection features, which help to protect your data against errors and other types of damage. Additionally, the drive is designed to be durable, with a robust housing and a number of features that help to protect it from damage.
The drive also has a high Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating, indicating its high reliability and durability. The MTBF rating estimates the time between drive failures and the higher the MTBF rating, the less likely the drive will fail.
The Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Ise 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive is built for enterprise-level use and is designed to meet the rigorous demands of data centers, cloud and surveillance storage, and other high-availability environments.
