Description
Capacity and Speed of the 400-AVCE Hard Drive
The 400-AVCE Dell Hard Drive has a capacity of 2.4TB, providing ample storage for large data sets, backups, and other demanding applications. With this large capacity, this hard drive can store large amounts of data, such as video, audio, images, and backups of entire servers.
It also has a rotational speed of 10,000 RPM, which is faster than standard hard drives that run at 7,200 RPM. This high speed allows for faster data access, improved performance, and improved multitasking. This makes the 400-AVCE an ideal choice for enterprise and data center environments that require quick, reliable data storage and access.
Additionally, the high speed of 10K RPM allows for better data transfer rates, making it a perfect fit for applications that require high IOPS (input/output operations per second) such as databases, virtualization, and online transaction processing.
SAS Interface and Data Transfer Rate
The 400-AVCE Dell Hard Drive is equipped with a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which is a high-speed data transfer interface that is designed for high-performance, high-availability systems. SAS offers a 12 Gbps data transfer rate, which is faster than SATA (Serial ATA) interface, providing more efficient data transfer and improved performance.
SAS interface also offers improved scalability and expandability options for your storage systems, as it allows for daisy-chaining multiple hard drives together, making it possible to connect multiple hard drives to a single SAS host bus adapter. This allows for more efficient and cost-effective storage expansion and upgrades.
Additionally, SAS interface supports full-duplex data transfer, enabling simultaneous data transfer in both directions, which results in faster data transfer rates and improved system performance. This makes the 400-AVCE an ideal choice for demanding applications such as online transaction processing, virtualization, and other enterprise-level workloads.
Reliability and Durability of the 400-AVCE Hard Disk
The 400-AVCE Dell Hard Drive is designed with reliability and durability in mind, making it suitable for use in enterprise and data center environments. It is built with high-quality components and undergoes rigorous testing to ensure that it can withstand the demands of continuous, heavy use.
The hard drive features a mean time between failures (MTBF) rating of 2 million hours, which is a measure of its expected reliability. This high MTBF rating means that the 400-AVCE has a lower probability of failure, making it a dependable storage solution for your critical data.
Additionally, the hard drive has been engineered to withstand the rigors of vibration and shock, making it less likely to suffer damage or data loss during transport or operation in a multi-drive environment.
Furthermore, the 400-AVCE comes with a five-year warranty from Dell, which provides peace of mind and protection for your investment.
