Description
Compatible Systems
The Seagate ST2000NX0453 hard drive is designed for use in enterprise storage systems, data centers, and other high-performance applications. It is compatible with systems that have a SAS-12Gbps interface and support the 512n form factor. It is also compatible with servers and storage systems from major vendors such as Dell, HP, IBM, and Lenovo.
It is designed to be used in a variety of storage environments, including servers, storage arrays, and storage area networks (SANs). It can also be used in a variety of data center and enterprise applications, including virtualization, cloud computing, big data analytics, and backup and recovery.
It’s worth to check with the manufacturer or the vendor of the system to confirm the compatibility of this drive before purchasing it.
Buffer Size and Encryption
The Seagate ST2000NX0453 hard drive has a 128MB buffer, which is a temporary storage area used by the drive’s controller to store data before it is written to the disk platters. A larger buffer size can improve the drive’s performance by allowing it to handle larger amounts of data at once, and improving the drive’s ability to handle bursty workloads.
The hard drive also features Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) technology and is Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 certified. SED encrypts all data on the drive automatically, and with no impact on performance. This technology provides an added layer of security by ensuring that data stored on the drive is protected even if the drive is lost or stolen. The FIPS 140-2 certification ensures that the drive meets the U.S. government’s standards for cryptographic modules.
Compliance and Security Standards
The Seagate ST2000NX0453 hard drive is compliant with a variety of industry standards and regulations for data security and privacy.
It features Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) technology and is Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 certified. The SED technology encrypts all data on the drive automatically and with no impact on performance. FIPS 140-2 certification means that the encryption algorithm and the drive have been independently tested and certified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to meet the U.S. government’s standards for cryptographic modules. This ensures that the drive provides a high level of security and protection for sensitive data.
It also comply with other standards such as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 27001.
Additionally, this hard drive may be compliant with other regulations and standards for data privacy and security, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). However, it is important to check the manufacturer’s website or contact the manufacturer directly to confirm compliance with any specific regulations or standards.
