The capacity of a storage device, such as a solid-state drive (SSD), is the amount of data it can hold. In the case of a 960GB SAS-12Gbps SSD, the capacity is 960 gigabytes (GB). This means that the drive can store up to 960 billion bytes of data.
The interface of a storage device is the method by which it connects to a computer or other device. SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a type of interface that allows for high-speed data transfer between storage devices and a host computer. SAS uses a serial signaling method, as opposed to the parallel signaling method used by the older parallel SCSI interface. SAS 12Gbps is the latest generation of SAS interface, it has a faster data transfer rate than the previous generation SAS 6Gbps and SAS 3Gbps.
So, the 960GB SAS-12Gbps SSD has a capacity of 960GB and it uses SAS 12Gbps interface. It's important to note that this SSD will require a SAS 12Gbps controller to connect to a host computer, and that controller should support the capacity of the SSD.
Durability and reliabilityDurability and reliability are important factors to consider when choosing a 960GB SAS-12Gbps SSD.
Durability: Durability of an SSD refers to its ability to withstand environmental factors such as vibration, temperature, and humidity. SSDs are generally more durable than traditional hard disk drives (HDDs) as they have no moving parts, which makes them less likely to be damaged by vibration or shock. However, the durability of an SSD can vary depending on the manufacturer and the specific model. Some SSDs are built to withstand harsh environments and some have certifications such as the MIL-STD-810G military standard, while others may not have the same level of robustness.
Reliability: Reliability of an SSD refers to its ability to function properly over time without failure. SSDs are generally considered to be more reliable than traditional HDDs as they have no moving parts, which makes them less likely to fail. Additionally, most SSDs come with built-in error correction and data protection features, such as ECC (Error Correction Code) and RAIN (Redundant Array of Independent NAND) to prevent data loss in case of errors or NAND failures. The reliability of an SSD can also be measured by its MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures), which is typically measured in hours. The MTBF of a 960GB SAS-12Gbps SSD will depend on the manufacturer and the specific model. Manufacturers typically provide a warranty and guarantee of a certain number of write cycles and overall lifespan.
It's important to note that even with these features, it's always recommended to have a backup of important data stored in a different location to ensure data security in case of drive failure.
Storage capacityThe storage capacity for a 960GB SAS-12Gbps SSD is 960 gigabytes (GB). A gigabyte is a unit of measurement for digital storage and it is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 bytes. Therefore, a 960GB SAS-12Gbps SSD has a storage capacity of 960,000,000,000 bytes. This means that the drive can store up to 960 gigabytes of data.
It's important to note that the capacity of a storage device, such as an SSD, is not the same as the usable capacity. The usable capacity is the amount of storage space that is available to the user after taking into account any over-provisioning, formatting, or other factors that may reduce the available space. The usable capacity of a 960GB SAS-12Gbps SSD may be slightly less than 960GB, depending on the specific model and the manufacturer.
It's also important to take note that the capacity of an SSD can vary depending on the specific model and manufacturer, so it's important to check the manufacturer's specifications before making a purchase.

What is the Manufacturer/Brand Warranty?
In general, a manufacturer's warranty service/support is a written guarantee to the buyer of a product. Its terms assure the replacement or repair of the product, if necessary, within a specified period after the purchase (2-5 years depending on the brand/manufacturer). It is typically included in the price of the product. Products are brand new and sealed and the original manufacturer box is complete with the Manufacturer's genuine warranty. For most of the brand new/retail products that come with the manual and box, exceptions may apply (i.e., Cisco, Juniper Networks).
For the server parts (i.e., Dell, HPE) to get Full coverage of the warranty server must have a full 3- 5 years warranty. However, ALLHDD.COM will cover the warranty duration if any Manufacturer doesn't support the advertised warranty and there is no refund for those.
