Utilizing the vast experience and innovative technology developed over 40 years, Fujitsu introduces a new enterprise class 2.5-inch SAS drive offering industry leading performance and environmental benefits.
The MBE2-RC series is the first enterprise hard disk drive from Fujitsu to be halogen free(*). The 15,000 RPM, 6Gb/sec., SAS-2 interface enterprise drive doubles its capacity from previous generation models through the adoption of perpendicular magnetic recording.
The higher capacity and performance meets a wide range of enterprise applications, from highend servers to disk storage arrays. In addition, the best-in-class low power values are ideal for servers and storage systems used in data centers, which require minimal energy usage and mounting space. The 6Gb/sec. SAS-2 interface and improved areal densities enable higher data rates.
As part of the Fujitsu Green Policy Innovation program, the new series provides the best-in-class power consumption at 4.1 watts idle, achieving up to 21% reduction from previous generation models, and up to 68% reduction from current 3.5" 15K RPM offerings.
- *
- Halogen free as defined by levels of chlorine (CL) and bromine (Br) or a compound in which they are combined reduced to be
less than the standards of IEC61249-2-21:2003, as stated below:
Chlorine: less than 900ppm, Bromine: less than 900ppm, Chlorine + bromine: less than 1500ppm
