Conclusion 

A variety of hard drive types are used in today’s server industry. The right HDD type is the one that 

provides the best return on investment (ROI) for a particular server application. Small-to-medium 

businesses (SMBs) or environments with less-than-demanding applications can be well served with 

SCSI or SATA drives that offer economical service and good dollar-per-gigabyte value. 
In the mission-critical, performance-oriented, enterprise server environment where hard drive duty 

cycle is 100 percent, SFF SAS drives excel in performance and reliability. Since SFF drives require 

only 70 percent of the space and half the power of 3.5-inch drives, higher drive densities per U 

space can be achieved 

without

 a significant increase in power consumption. Higher drive densities 

provide better overall performance, reliability, and lower operating costs.
