Dell 1,2TB 10K SAS 12Gbps 2,5" enterprise-kiintolevy (512n, Hot-Plug) - DCGGC

Engineered for mission-critical server and storage environments, this Dell 1.2TB enterprise hard drive delivers a 10,000 RPM spindle speed and SAS 12Gbps interface to accelerate data access and throughput. Its 2.5-inch small form factor with 512n sector technology ensures compatibility with modern hypervisor and database workloads, while hot-plug support minimises downtime during maintenance or capacity scaling.

Advantages

High-speed 10K RPM performance reduces latency for transactional applications. The 12Gbps SAS interface doubles bandwidth compared to previous generations, enabling faster backups and replication. Native 512-byte sectors align with legacy operating systems and virtualisation platforms without emulation overhead. Hot-swap capability allows drive replacement without powering down the server, improving serviceability in clustered environments.
