Product Description
1.Product Overview
This is an enterprise grade high-performance hard drive launched by IBM, which is a dedicated expansion hard drive for IBM Storwize V5000 and V7000 series storage systems. The disk body adopts a 2.5-inch specification, provides 1.2TB of storage capacity, and runs at a high speed of 10000 RPM. Its interface is 6Gb/s SAS (Serial Attached SCSI), designed to meet the high IOPS and stability requirements of enterprise critical task loads, and is an important component in building IBM's mid to high end storage solutions.
Model analysis:
00DJ349: This is the FRU (field replaceable unit) number of the hard drive itself, which is the only official code used by IBM to identify this spare part.
FC AF23: This code is usually associated with FRU 00DJ349, referring to a specific model or configuration batch of the hard drive.
00DJ364: This is the FRU number of the drive tray kit or bracket assembly where the hard drive is pre installed. This means that customers typically receive a complete kit that has already secured the hard drive in a dedicated rack, making it easy to install and replace directly.

3.Main features and advantages
Original factory quality and perfect compatibility:
As an original IBM accessory, this hard drive has undergone IBM's most rigorous testing and validation to ensure 100% hardware compatibility and stability with IBM Storwize V5000&V7000 storage systems. Using original parts can avoid system alarms, performance mismatches, or potential data risks.
High performance performance:
The high speed of 10000 RPM significantly reduces data seek time, providing higher IOPS (read/write operations per second) and lower latency compared to 7200RPM hard drives, making it ideal for applications with frequent random read/write operations.
High reliability:
Specially designed for data center environments that operate 24/7 without interruption. The average time between failures (MTBF) of up to 1.4 million hours demonstrates its outstanding enterprise level reliability. Adopting SAS interface, supporting dual port access, providing redundant paths for high availability clusters.
Plug and play replacement:
Usually provided in the form of a 00DJ364 drive kit, which includes pre installed hard drives and dedicated shelves. This greatly simplifies the replacement process, as technicians can quickly replace faulty disks without any tools, minimizing downtime.
4.Applicable scenarios and system compatibility
Exclusive application: This hard drive is dedicated to the following IBM storage systems:
IBM Storwize V7000 (including models 2076-524, 2076-524C, 2076-524E, etc.)
IBM Storwize V5000 (including models 2076-524C, 2076-524E, etc.)
Typical workload:
Due to its high-performance characteristics, it is often used in these storage systems for:
Virtual machine hard disk storage
Medium sized databases (such as SQL Server, Oracle)
Mail servers (such as Microsoft Exchange)
File Sharing Server
As a performance level in the storage pool
5.Purchase and Usage Notice
Original and genuine: Please identify the IBM original FRU number (00DJ349 for hard drives, 00DJ364 for kits with brackets) when purchasing to ensure product quality and system compatibility.
Kit format: This product is usually sold in the form of a complete drive kit (FRU 00DJ364), which means the hard drive is already installed in the rack and can be installed immediately upon receipt.
System integration: After inserting the hard drive into the Storwize system, the system will automatically recognize and include it in the designated storage pool (MDiskgrp). The replacement operation is recommended to be completed by professional technicians.
