RAID With 24 Seagate Savvio HDDs Reporting an Annual Energy Use of 1,765.41kWh

According to SPC-1C/E benchmark

Seagate Technology LLC announced that its Savvio 10K.3 hard drive has achieved exceptional results in the Storage Performance Council‘s new benchmark extension, SPC Benchmark 1C/Energy (SPC-1C/E), which includes the industry’s first energy use data for storage components that are audited and peer reviewed. The benchmark highlights anticipated energy use in environments that impose zero (idle), light, moderate or heavy workload demands upon the Test Storage Configuration. The 24-drive array, configured with over 7 Terabytes of storage, reported an outstanding Annual Energy Use of 1,765.41 kWh and projected Annual Energy Cost of $211.85 at $0.12/kWh, making it a compelling choice for Tier 1 storage solutions on price, power, capacity and performance.

The SPC’s new industry-standard SPC-1C/E benchmark extension consists of the complete set of SPC-1C performance measurements and reporting, combined with measurement and reporting of energy use. SPC-1C/E is the first industry-standard performance benchmark to provide energy use reported data in conjunction with storage performance reported data.

"The SPC congratulates Seagate on its Savvio benchmark results using SPC-1C/E," said Walter E. Baker, administrator for the Storage Performance Council. "The new SPC-1C/E Reported Data is a refinement for the storage industry which demands ever-increasing performance along with system power savings that can be measured in real-world environments."

Seagate Savvio 10K.3 drives offer the best combination of enterprise performance and power efficiency, with up to 300GB capacity for mainstream servers and external storage arrays. The 2.5-inch footprint enables the lowest power profile of any tier-1 mission-critical drive. Savvio 10K.3 drives include PowerTrim technology to enable lower cooling costs and reduced total cost of ownership to data centers that require optimized power and performance.
