Seagate ST12000NM004G SAS 12GBPS 12TB 7.2K RPM Hard Drive is a high-capacity enterprise-level hard drive that is designed for use in data centers and other demanding environments. Its SAS interface and 12 Gbps transfer rate provide fast data transfer speeds, and its 7.2K RPM spindle speed allows for quick access to stored data. Overall, it is considered a reliable hard drive with a high MTBF (mean time between failures) rating and a long warranty period. However, like any hard drive, it can fail due to hardware issues or human error, so it is important to have a backup and disaster recovery plan in place.
High CompatibilityThe Seagate ST12000NM004G SAS 12GBPS 12TB 7.2K RPM hard drive is a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) hard drive, which means it requires a SAS controller in order to be used. It is not compatible with SATA (Serial ATA) controllers, which are commonly found in consumer-grade computers and laptops.
The hard drive is also 12 Gbps SAS, which means it requires a 12 Gbps SAS controller, it will not work with a 6 Gbps SAS controller.
Additionally, it is a 3.5 inch form factor hard drive, which means it requires a compatible 3.5 inch drive bay in the host system.
It is important to check the compatibility of the hard drive with the specific server or storage system before purchasing. It is also important to check if the server/storage system can handle the physical size of the hard drive.
It is always recommended to check with the vendor/manufacturer of the server or storage system to confirm compatibility with the Seagate product of SAS 12GBPS 12TB 7.2K RPM hard drive.
Performance of 12TB Hard DriveThe Seagate ST12000NM004G SAS 12GBPS 12TB 7.2K RPM hard drive is designed for high-performance applications and is capable of delivering fast data transfer speeds. The SAS interface and 12 Gbps transfer rate provide a maximum data transfer rate of up to 1,200 MB/s. The 7.2K RPM spindle speed also allows for quick access to stored data. The large 12TB storage capacity makes it a good option for data-intensive applications, such as big data analytics, media streaming, and backup and archival storage.
The hard drive also has a high Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) rating, typically around 2.5 million hours, which indicates a high level of reliability. Additionally, the hard drive has a robust error correction mechanism which helps to minimize the chances of data loss.
It's worth noting that the performance of hard drive can be affected by the system it is being used in. Factors such as the quality and performance of the SAS controller, as well as the performance of the host system itself, can impact the overall performance of the hard drive.
It's also important to note that the 7200 RPM speed of the hard drive will consume more power, generate more noise and heat than a 5400 RPM hard drive, which could be a concern in certain environments.
