    Product FAQ

    Q: What is the difference between SAS and SATA?

    A: SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) offers faster data transfer rates and greater reliability compared to SATA, making it ideal for enterprise applications where data integrity and speed are paramount. SAS provides a more robust and scalable solution for demanding workloads.

    Q: Is this drive hot-swappable?

    A: This depends on the server's configuration. The drive itself supports hot-swapping, allowing for drive replacement without system downtime, but the server enclosure must also be compatible to enable this functionality.

    Q: What is the warranty for this drive?

    A: While this is a refurbished enterprise-class drive, it is rigorously tested to meet stringent performance standards and backed by our commitment to quality. Please contact us for specific warranty details and peace of mind.
