400-AVBR Overview

Dell 2.4TB 10000RPM SAS 12Gbps 2.5-inch Internal Hard Drive. Advanced Format Technology is a method of formatting hard drives that increases the physical sector size of the drive from 512 bytes to 4,096 bytes (4K). The Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB 512E Hard Disk Drive uses the 512E format which is an advanced format that uses 4,096 byte sectors internally, but still presents itself to the host as having 512 byte sectors. Additionally, it allows for more efficient storage of data on the drive, which can help to improve performance and increase the drive’s overall capacity.
