- Shock tolerance: 60G for 2ms (operating), 300G for 2ms (non-operating)
- Vibration tolerance: 0.5G RMS (operating), 3.0G RMS (non-operating)
Form Factor
The Seagate ST9600105SS hard drive has a form factor of 2.5 inches, which makes it smaller than traditional 3.5-inch hard drives. This small form factor is useful for enterprise-level applications where space is at a premium. It allows for more hard drives to be installed in a server or storage array, thereby increasing the storage capacity.
Interface
The ST9600105SS uses the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 6GBPS interface. This interface provides a higher data transfer rate than traditional SCSI interfaces, making it ideal for enterprise-level applications. The SAS interface also provides better reliability and fault tolerance than SATA interfaces.
Capacity
The Seagate ST9600105SS has a capacity of 600GB. This large storage capacity makes it ideal for enterprise-level applications that require large amounts of storage. The high capacity also makes it possible to store large files and applications on a single hard drive.
RPM
The ST9600105SS operates at a speed of 10,000 RPM. This high speed allows for faster data access and transfer rates. It is also useful for applications that require fast read and write speeds, such as database servers or virtualization environments.
Cache
The ST9600105SS has a 64MB cache. This cache helps to improve the hard drive’s performance by storing frequently accessed data closer to the CPU. This means that the CPU can access the data more quickly, reducing the time it takes to access and transfer data.
Average Latency and Seek Time
The Seagate ST9600105SS has an average latency of 2.99ms and a seek time of 4.0ms (read) and 4.5ms (write). These low latencies and seek times help to improve the hard drive’s performance by reducing the time it takes to access and transfer data.
MTBF
The ST9600105SS has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 1.6 million hours. This means that on average, the hard drive is expected to operate without failure for 1.6 million hours.
