This 2.5-inch enterprise disc drive makes possible a new class of high I/O, high-density storage solutions. Space-constrained data centers are enabled to achieve higher IOPs (input/output per second) performance in small form factor system configurations while maintaining the highest levels of reliability.

These drives combine giant magnetoresistive (GMR) heads, partial response/maximum likelihood (PRML) read channel electronics, embedded servo TECHNOLOGY, and a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface to provide high performance, high capacity data storage for a variety of systems including engineering workstations, network servers, mainframes, and supercomputers. The Serial Attached SCSI interface is designed to meet next-generation computing demands for performance, scalability, flexibility and high-density storage requirements.
