Description
Product Specifications
The Seagate ST300MP0016 is a high-performance enterprise hard drive designed for use in servers and data centers. With a capacity of 300GB and a spindle speed of 15,000 revolutions per minute (RPM), this hard drive provides fast data access and transfer rates for high-demand applications. It uses the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface with a 12Gbps transfer rate and a 512n sector size, making it suitable for high-performance and high-availability storage applications.
Capacity and Performance
The Seagate ST300MP0016 hard drive has a capacity of 300GB, which is sufficient for storing large amounts of data. The 15K RPM spindle speed provides fast access to data, reducing latency and improving overall system performance. This makes it ideal for use in high-demand applications such as databases, virtualization, and online transaction processing.
Interface and Data Transfer Rates
The Seagate ST300MP0016 hard drive uses the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a high-speed, point-to-point data transfer interface designed for use in enterprise storage applications. This interface provides a transfer rate of up to 12Gbps, which is twice as fast as the previous generation SAS interface. The 12Gbps transfer rate ensures that data can be transferred quickly and efficiently, improving system performance and reducing latency.
Sector Size
The Seagate ST300MP0016 hard drive uses a 512n sector size, which means that each sector contains 512 bytes of data. This sector size is compatible with most operating systems and is ideal for use in high-performance storage applications. It provides a balance between performance and capacity, allowing for efficient data storage and retrieval.
Reliability and Data Protection
The Seagate ST300MP0016 hard drive is designed for use in enterprise storage applications and provides high levels of reliability and data protection. It uses advanced error correction techniques such as Seagate’s RAID Rebuild technology, which helps to prevent data loss and ensures data integrity. It also has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 2 million hours, which means that it is highly reliable and suitable for use in critical storage applications.
Power Consumption
The Seagate ST300MP0016 hard drive has a low power consumption of 4.9 watts during active operation and 4.2 watts during idle mode. This low power consumption helps to reduce energy costs and makes it suitable for use in green data center environments.
Compatibility
The Seagate ST300MP0016 hard drive is compatible with a wide range of servers and storage systems. It is designed to work with SAS controllers that support 12Gbps transfer rates and 512n sector sizes. It is also compatible with most operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Unix.
