The Seagate Expansion Desk SCSI Disk Device is an external hard drive that connects via the SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) interface. These devices are designed for various storage applications and professional applications. Here is the detailed information about the technical details, features and application areas:
Technical details
1. Interface:
- SCSI (Small Computer System Interface): An older but robust protocol for data exchange used in professional and industrial environments. SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) may also be present in newer models.
2. Capacity:
- Capacity varies by model, typically from 500 GB to several terabytes (TB).
3. Speed:
- Speed: Hard drives often run at 7200 rpm (revolutions per minute), which provides a good balance between speed and heat generation.
- Interface speed: SCSI can have different transfer rates depending on the version (e.g. 40 MB/s for SCSI-2 up to 640 MB/s for Ultra320 SCSI).
4. Form factor:
- Typically a 3.5-inch desktop hard drive.
5. Storage type:
- HDD (Hard Disk Drive): Mechanical hard drives based on rotating disks and moving read/write heads.
6. Operating system compatibility:
- Compatible with various operating systems, especially in professional and server-oriented environments that support SCSI.
7. Construction and housing:
- Robust housing, often with additional cooling through built-in fans to support the heat dissipation of the hard drive.
Features
1. Data storage:
- Large capacity for storing large amounts of data, suitable for professional data management needs.
2. Backup solutions:
- Ideal for backing up important data, archiving data and storing large media files.
3. Expandable storage options:
- Can add additional storage capacity to existing systems, especially in server environments.
4. Reliability and durability:
- Designed for use in professional environments with high reliability and durability.
5. Data transfer speed:
- Fast data transfer through SCSI interface, especially with higher versions such as Ultra320 or SAS.
6. Compatibility:
- Support for legacy and professional systems that use SCSI interfaces.
Areas of application
1. Professional data storage:
- Used in enterprises and data centers for large data storage, databases and virtualization.
2. Backup and archiving:
- Use for regular data backups, archiving of company data and long-term storage.
3. Media production:
- Storing and managing large media files such as videos, images and audio recordings in the film and music industries.
4. Research and Development:
- Storage of large-scale research data, scientific calculations and projects that require large amounts of data.
5. Server and network environments:
- Adding additional storage space to existing server systems, especially in networks that use SCSI.
6. Data recovery:
- Use in data recovery solutions where large amounts of data need to be backed up from damaged or defective systems.
The Seagate Expansion Desk SCSI Disk Device is therefore a powerful and reliable solution for professional applications that require large amounts of data and fast access speeds. The choice of such a device is often geared towards the needs of companies, research institutions and media professionals.
