Product Description
The Dell C5696 is a high-performance 146GB hard disk drive engineered for the most demanding enterprise server environments. It utilizes the Ultra-320 SCSI interface, providing a maximum throughput of 320MB/s, which is critical for applications requiring rapid data transfer. The 146GB capacity is suitable for operating systems, databases, and critical business applications where speed and responsiveness are paramount. Distinguishing itself with a rapid 15000 RPM spindle speed, the C5696 offers significantly reduced seek times and faster data retrieval compared to 10000 RPM drives. This higher rotational velocity is ideal for I/O-bound workloads, such as high-transaction databases, real-time analytics, and high-density virtualization. The inclusion of an 8MB cache buffer further enhances performance by storing frequently accessed data, reducing the need to access the platters for repeated requests. Built for the rigors of 24/7 operation, the 3.5-inch form factor drive is designed for enterprise-grade reliability and durability. The Ultra-320 SCSI interface ensures broad compatibility with enterprise servers and storage controllers. The Dell C5696 is a powerful storage solution for organizations that require the utmost in performance and data access speed from their SCSI-based storage infrastructure.
