• A safeguard against costly security breaches and exposure of proprietary data if a hard drive is stolen or lost.
• Help to ensure compliancy with data security, information disclosure, and privacy regulations for data at rest.
• The ability to securely erase data for disk disposition, redeployment, or service calls.
• Encryption functionality supported when used in conjunction with supported ServeRAID controllers and optional Advance Feature Keys.
• MegaRAID Management Suite (MSM), which offers a quick and simple configuration path to disk encryption and also assists with local key management.

The newest additions to the IBM System x family of SAS Hard drive (HDDs) and Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs) drives offer higher performance options and provide a wider selection of choices to satisfy a wide range of applications. These new drives are
positioned at the top of the IBM SAS hard drive line.

• IBM 4 TB 7200 NL SAS 3.5-inch Gen1 Hot-Swap Hard disk drive (49Y6205)
• IBM 4 TB 7200 NL SAS 3.5-inch Gen2 Hot-Swap Hard disk drive (49Y6210)

The new 4 TB SAS Gen1 and Gen2 Hot-Swap hard drivess and the 2 TB, 4 TB SAS Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs) provide 3.5-inch form factor options. The Gen1 and Gen2 SAS drives are available as hot-swap versions.

Key features and benefits for hard drives:

• 7200 rpm 3.5-inch SAS drives are RoHS compliant
  
• 7200 rpm 3.5-inch SAS drives meet client requirements for large capacities and increased speeds in larger form factor.
• Speeds up to 7200 rpm help optimize performance.
• Outstanding reliability enables operation in RAID environments without compromising application performance or availability

You can increase your storage and data management effectiveness when you install these new high performance SAS HDDs in your IBM System x configurations.

New Self-Encrypting Drives (SED) add high-capacity offerings to the System x and BladeCenter family:

• IBM 2 TB 10000 SAS 2.5-inch SFF Gen2 Hot-Swap Self-Encrypting Drive (00W1533)
• IBM 4 TB 10000 SAS 2.5-inch SFF Gen2 Hot-Swap Self-Encrypting Drive (00W1543)

To reduce the vulnerability of data at rest to potentially costly exposures of proprietary data resulting from hard drives being stolen, misplaced, or even improperly disposed.

Ideal for small and medium or distributed large enterprise businesses, IBM 2 TB and 4 TB SAS 3.5-inch Hot-Swap Self-Encrypting Drives provide cost-effective advanced data security with AES 128 disk encryption. These new Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs) offerings also provide optimal Hot-Swap SAS capability for your high performance and high availability System x environment. SED functionality and SAS performance of these new drives are enabled when used with new IBM System x servers and internal ServeRAID controllers with Advance Feature Keys for Self-Encrypting Drive support.
