Product Features
Technical Overview
This hard drive utilizes a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface operating at 12 gigabits per second, ensuring high-speed data transfers and reliable connectivity in multi-drive arrays. The 10,000 RPM spindle speed reduces seek times, making it well-suited for applications requiring rapid access to stored data.
The 128MB DRAM cache acts as a buffer to optimize sequential and random I/O performance, particularly beneficial in server environments handling concurrent requests. As an internal drive with a 2.5-inch form factor, it fits standard drive bays in servers, workstations, and compatible motherboard enclosures without requiring additional adapters.
Relevant factors for this section include Storage Capacity, Spindle Speed (rpm), Buffer. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

FAQ
What is the storage capacity of this Axiom hard drive?
This Axiom hard drive offers 600GB of storage capacity. This provides substantial space for operating systems, applications, databases, and user data in server and workstation environments, balancing capacity with the performance benefits of its 10,000 RPM spindle speed and SAS interface.
What type of interface does this hard drive use?
The drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface operating at 12 gigabits per second. SAS is designed for high-performance enterprise environments, offering full-duplex communication, enhanced error recovery, and compatibility with SATA drives in many SAS controllers, making it ideal for servers and storage arrays.
What is the spindle speed (RPM) of this drive?
This drive operates at 10,000 revolutions per minute (RPM). Higher RPM reduces latency and improves data access times compared to lower-speed drives, which is crucial for applications requiring rapid read/write operations such as database transactions, virtualization, and real-time data processing.
What form factor is this hard drive?
It is a 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF) drive. The 2.5-inch size allows for higher storage density in server racks and enclosures compared to larger 3.5-inch drives, making it suitable for space-constrained data centers and compact server designs while maintaining enterprise performance characteristics.
What devices is this hard drive compatible with?
The drive is designed for servers, workstations, and compatible motherboards. It has been verified for use with platforms from Cisco, Dell, HP, Lenovo, SuperMicro, Oracle, and others. Specific compatible models include Cisco UCS B-Series blades, Dell PowerEdge servers, HP ProLiants, and SuperMicro motherboards, as detailed in the compatibility list.
What warranty comes with this Axiom hard drive?
Axiom provides a 5-year limited warranty for this hard drive. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use, offering long-term support and reliability assurance for enterprise deployments where drive longevity and manufacturer backing are critical considerations.
