Description
More Specification
The Seagate ST14000NM013G is a 14 terabyte hard drive with a rotation speed of 7,200 RPM. It utilizes the SAS-12GBps interface and has a 256MB cache. This drive is designed for use in enterprise storage systems and servers, and is well-suited for applications that require high capacity and high performance. The SAS-12GBps interface allows for faster data transfer speeds and the larger cache allows for better performance when dealing with large amounts of data. The 7,200 RPM speed allows for faster data access times and improved performance over slower 5,400 RPM drives.
Enterprise Hard Drive
The Seagate ST14000NM013G is an enterprise-class hard drive, which means it is designed for use in data centers, servers and other high-performance, high-availability environments. The large 14 terabyte capacity allows for storing large amounts of data, and the 7,200 RPM speed and SAS-12GBps interface allow for fast data transfer rates, which is essential for high-performance applications such as databases, video editing, and scientific simulations. The drive also has a large 256MB cache, which improves the performance when working with large data sets.
Additionally, the drive is built with enterprise-grade features such as reliability and durability, which is important in an environment where downtime is not an option. The drive is designed to withstand the rigors of a data center environment, with features such as vibration and shock protection, and can also include advanced data protection and recovery features.
Serial-Attached SCSI
SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a type of interface used to connect hard drives to a computer or server. The Seagate ST14000NM013G hard drive uses the SAS-12GBps interface, which allows for faster data transfer speeds than the previous SAS 6GBps standard.
SAS, in contrast to SATA, is a point-to-point connection, which means that each device (hard drive, controller, etc.) has its own dedicated connection to the SAS bus, which eliminates the potential bottleneck of shared connections. This results in improved scalability and performance.
The SAS-12GBps interface is also backwards-compatible with SAS-6GBps, so it can be used in both new and older systems. The SAS-12GBps interface also supports features such as dual-port and multi-path connections, which improve the fault-tolerance and availability of the storage system.
