SAS drives are enterprise class hard drives that out perform NL-SAS and SATA drives in virtually every way. SAS drives maintain their performance under more difficult conditions, and perform much better than NL-SAS and SATA. SAS drives are also more reliable than other spinning disk options by a factor of 10x. SAS drives have a mean time between failure (MTBF) of 1.6 million hours compared to 1.2 million hours for SATA and NL-SAS. Increase your available storage with the EMC VX-2S10-600 2.5″ 600GB 10K SAS hard drive. When compared to SATA, SAS drives have the following benefits:

  • Dual ports allowing redundant paths
  • Ability to connect a device to multiple computers
  • Full SCSI command set
  • Larger depth of command queues

Using EMC 2.5″ SAS HDD with part numbers VX-2S10-600, 005050345 & 005049203 for applications that use small block, random I/O is an important factor in realizing higher performance benefits. These applications have a tendency to minimize any caching advantages of the storage system. In addition, with applications such as these, the physical access to data on the disk has the greatest effect on overall performance. These small block, random I/O applications reap the greatest benefits from storage-system performance improvements achieved through the drive’s improved seek and rotational latency times.

How we save you money.

Dell EMC VNX Series /  maintenance

Like every business, you’re under constant pressure to get the best possible value out of your IT budget. You’re also keen to minimize your environmental impact. We support you in achieving your aims by:

  • Cutting capital expenditure – It’s our job to extend the life of your servers and IT storage, delaying capital expenditure costs as long as possible while making sure your IT equipment is functioning perfectly, and performing without delays. Supplying parts as well as carrying out Dell EMC VNX Series maintenance, we deliver critical support long after the manufacturer’s responsibility comes to an end.
  • Reducing operating costs – According to our calculations, our Dell EMC VNX Series storage maintenance saves our customers around 40% compared to the same service provided by manufacturers.
  • Making environmental savings – It takes a huge amount of money to manufacture complex equipment, sometimes more than it uses during its entire lifetime. Extending its life, which is what our services can do, means you cut the impact by as much as a third. When you create virtual environments you cut the energy cost of running physical servers as well as the expense of new hardware, the power it consumes, the cooling it requires and the space it saves.
