High-Speed Data Transfers

The SATA-600 and SAS-3 interfaces supported by the D3710 enable lightning-fast data transfer speeds. SATA-600 provides a maximum data transfer rate of 600 megabytes per second (MB/s), while SAS-3 offers even higher speeds of up to 12 gigabits per second (Gbps). These high-speed interfaces ensure that data-intensive tasks such as backups, restores, and file transfers can be completed quickly and efficiently.

Improved Reliability

The SATA-600 and SAS-3 interfaces are known for their robustness and reliability. These interfaces incorporate advanced error correction mechanisms, ensuring the integrity of your data during transmission. The improved reliability of the interface reduces the risk of data corruption or loss, providing users with peace of mind when it comes to their critical data.

Compatibility with Various Storage Devices

The HPE D3710's SATA-600 and SAS-3 interfaces offer extensive compatibility with a wide range of storage devices. Whether you prefer using SSDs, HDDs, or a combination of both, you can rest assured that the D3710 will support your preferred storage devices. This versatility allows users to leverage existing storage investments or choose the most suitable storage technology for their specific needs.

Form Factor

The HPE D3710 Storage Enclosure boasts a rack-mountable form factor, making it an ideal choice for businesses and organizations that require efficient use of space in their data centers or server rooms.

Optimized Space Utilization

By mounting the enclosure in a rack, you can efficiently utilize vertical space, freeing up valuable floor space for other equipment or operations. This form factor is particularly advantageous for data centers where space optimization is crucial.

Improved Cable Management

The rack-mountable design of the D3710 also improves cable management within the data center or server room. The enclosure can be neatly mounted alongside other rack-mounted devices, allowing for organized routing of cables and reducing clutter. This not only enhances the aesthetics of the environment but also simplifies troubleshooting and maintenance tasks, as cables are easily identifiable and accessible.

Scalability and Versatility

The rack-mountable form factor of the D3710 enables seamless scalability and versatility. As your storage needs grow, you can easily add additional enclosures to your existing rack setup, expanding your storage capacity without requiring additional floor space. This scalability and versatility make the D3710 an excellent long-term investment, capable of accommodating future storage demands.

Size

The HPE D3710 Storage Enclosure features a compact 2U size, providing users with a balance between storage capacity and space efficiency.

Space-Efficient Design

The 2U size of the D3710 allows it to fit into compact spaces while still offering an impressive number of bays for storage. This compact design is particularly beneficial for businesses or organizations with limited physical space, allowing them to maximize their storage capabilities without sacrificing valuable real estate.

Ease of Installation

The compact size of the D3710 makes it easy to install and integrate into existing setups. Whether you are setting up a new storage infrastructure or expanding an existing one, the 2U size ensures that the enclosure can be conveniently installed into standard server racks or cabinets. This ease of installation minimizes downtime and simplifies the overall deployment process.

Enhanced Cooling Efficiency

The 2U size of the D3710 allows for efficient cooling of the enclosed drives. The compact design promotes better airflow within the enclosure, preventing heat buildup and ensuring optimal operating temperatures for the drives. By maintaining proper cooling, the D3710 helps to prolong the lifespan of your storage devices and reduce the risk of performance degradation or drive failure.
