Product overview of Western Digital WD6001BKHG Xe 600GB
The Western Digital WD6001BKHG Xe is a high-performance hard drive designed for enterprise-level applications. It is a 2.5-inch drive with a capacity of 600GB and a speed of 10,000 RPM, which makes it suitable for applications that require fast data access and processing.
Capacity
The WD6001BKHG Xe has a capacity of 600GB, which is suitable for storing large amounts of data, such as databases, multimedia files, and virtual machine images. This capacity is achieved using two platters, each with a capacity of 300GB, and a total of four heads that can read and write data to both platters simultaneously.
Speed
The drive’s speed is 10,000 RPM, which is significantly faster than the standard 7,200 RPM speed of most desktop hard drives. The increased speed translates to faster data access times and improved performance in applications that require fast data access, such as databases and virtual machines.
Interface
The WD6001BKHG Xe uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a high-speed interface designed for enterprise-level applications. The SAS interface allows for data transfer rates of up to 6Gbps, which is twice the speed of the previous generation SAS interface. This increased speed allows for faster data transfer and improved performance in applications that require high-speed data access.
Cache
The drive has a 32MB cache, which is used to store frequently accessed data for faster access. The cache allows the drive to access frequently used data without having to retrieve it from the platters, which can significantly improve performance in certain applications.
Reliability
The WD6001BKHG Xe is designed for high reliability and is rated for a Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) of 1.6 million hours. This means that the drive is expected to operate for 1.6 million hours before it fails, making it suitable for use in enterprise-level applications that require high levels of reliability.
Compatibility
The WD6001BKHG Xe is compatible with most enterprise-level servers and storage systems that support SAS drives. It is also compatible with most operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Unix.
In Summary, the Western Digital WD6001BKHG Xe 600GB 10K RPM SAS 6GBPS 32MB Hard Drive is a high-performance drive designed for enterprise-level applications that require fast data access and processing.
