Compatibility
The IBM ESDP 600GB 15K RPM SAS SFF-2 Disk Drive (00E9914) is compatible with IBM Power Systems, supporting IBM i, AIX, and Linux. It integrates with Power8 and Power9 servers, including 8202-E4D, 8205-E6D, 8231-E1D, 8231-E2D, 8286-41A, 8286-42A, 8408-E8D, 9080-MHE, 9080-MME, 9109-RMD, 9117-MMD, 9119-FHB, 9119-MHE, 9119-MME, and 9179-MHD, requiring SFF-2 SAS bays. The drive supports 512-byte sectors for AIX/Linux or 528-byte sectors for IBM i, with RAID compatibility for enhanced data integrity. It is not compatible with EXP24SX drawers due to carrier differences and must be used with drives of the same sector size in RAID arrays. The ESDP is particularly suited for applications requiring high-speed data access and reliability, such as virtualization environments and database servers, ensuring robust performance in demanding enterprise settings.
