Server Hard Drive

Server Hard Drive

The server hard drives are storage devices that are specifically designed for use in servers. They are different from consumer hard drives based on their high endurance, consistent operation at high temperatures, and potentially more robust controllers with features like more RAM or faster clock speeds. In addition to this, they have multi-user access and integration into RAID and storage array configurations.
