DELL CUS Kit 3.5" 2TB, 7200 RPM, 512MB, SATA III Hard Drive, Enterprise

This Dell Customer Kit includes a 2TB internal hard drive engineered for server and enterprise storage applications. The drive is built in a 3.5-inch form factor and utilizes a SATA 6Gb/s interface for high-speed data transfer. Its spindle rotates at 7200 RPM, a speed that facilitates lower rotational latency and quicker access to stored data compared to 5400 RPM models. The drive features a 512-byte native (512n) sector format, ensuring broad compatibility with legacy and modern operating systems and hardware controllers within a server environment.

A primary function for server deployment is its hot-plug capability, which permits installation or removal of the drive while the system remains operational, minimizing service downtime. As a "CUS Kit," it is packaged with the required drive caddy for secure integration into specific Dell server chassis. The drive is also equipped with a substantial 512 MB cache, which acts as a temporary data buffer to streamline data throughput and enhance performance during demanding read and write operations common in multi-user environments.
