Description
Product Overview
The 2MR221-251 Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e SED-FIPS 3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive is a high-performance, high-capacity hard drive designed for use in a wide range of enterprise-level storage systems. The drive features a large 8 terabytes (TB) of storage capacity, which can store a large amount of data, making it ideal for a wide range of applications such as backup, archiving, surveillance, media and entertainment, cloud and artificial intelligence.
The drive has a spindle speed of 7200 RPM, which enables faster data access and improved performance. It also features a 12 Gbps SAS interface, which provides faster data transfer rates compared to other interfaces, such as SATA. The drive also has a large 256MB cache which enables faster data access and improved performance.
The drive also has a 3.5 inch form factor 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.
One of the key differences of this drive is its SED-FIPS (Self-Encrypting Drive – Federal Information Processing Standards) feature, which provides a high level of security for data stored on the drive by encrypting all data on the drive with a government-grade encryption algorithm.
Enterprise-Grade Reliability
Enterprise-grade reliability refers to the level of dependability and durability that a hard drive is designed to provide for use in demanding enterprise environments, such as data centers, cloud computing environments, and other mission-critical applications.
The 2MR221-251 Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Sed-fips 3.5inch Hard Disk Drive is designed to provide enterprise-grade reliability through a combination of features and technologies. Some of these features may include:
High MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) ratings, which indicate how long a drive is expected to last before failing.
RAID support, which allows for data to be spread across multiple drives for increased redundancy and protection against data loss.
Error correction and data recovery features, which help to protect against data loss due to disk errors or other issues.
Advanced power management features, which can help to prolong the life of the drive and protect against data loss due to power outages or other disruptions.
Built for 24×7 operation, to provide high availability of data
Enhanced data security features that prevent unauthorized access to data
Improved data integrity through advanced error correction and data recovery features
Compliance with SED-FIPS standard
Additionally, enterprise-grade hard drives typically undergo rigorous testing and quality control procedures to ensure that they meet the high standards required for use in mission-critical applications. This will ensure that the Seagate Exos 7e8 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256mb Buffer 512e Sed-fips 3.5inch Hard Disk Drive will be able to perform in demanding environments and provide the high level of reliability that is expected from enterprise-grade storage.
High level of Scalability
Hot-Swap Capabilities” refers to the ability of a hard drive to be easily replaced or exchanged without shutting down the system.
The 2MR221-251 Hitachi 4TB 7200RPM SAS 12GBPS 128MB SE Hard Drive (0F22815) has Hot-Swap capabilities which means it can be removed and replaced while the system is still powered on. This feature allows for easy maintenance and upgrades without disrupting the operation of the system. Hot-swap capability allows for easy replacement of failed drives and upgrades to the system without the need for a system shut-down, reducing downtime and increasing system availability. It also allows for easy integration into hot-swap drive bays in servers or storage systems. This feature makes it ideal for use in high-availability environments such as data centers, where minimizing downtime is a key consideration.
