Maximize uptime and the security of data:

The PowerVault MD1200 has been engineered to maximize uptime and the security of  data.

 • Redundant Path with I/O Load Balancing: Even if a single cable path fails from one port of the PERC H800 continue access to data through the second port.

 • Self-Encrypting Drives (SED): With drive-level encryption, if a drive is removed from its storage system or the server it is housed in, the data on that drive is encrypted and useless to anyone who attempts to access it without the appropriate security authorization. Additionally, SED supports Instant Secure Erase of drives which permanently removes data when repurposing or decommissioning drives.

 • Hot Swappable Drives: With hot-swappable drives, remove and replace drives even when  the system is operating; no need to turn it off and no need to reboot—new drives are available right away.

Work optimally with Dell PowerEdge™ servers:

The Dell PowerVault MD1200 storage array is engineered to work optimally with Dell PowerEdge™ servers, utilizing the PERC H800 HostRAID adapter, Dell OpenManage™ 

Storage Manager, and common components, as follows:

 • The configuration of the PERC H800 enables the software to recognize all storage as a single unit, helping to increase reliability and fault tolerance.

 • Dell OpenManage Storage Manager software can manage both the external array and internal storage, streamlining storage management through a single, common interface. This helps reduce resource load on the system and enables easier navigation for the user.

 • The PowerVault MD1200 leverages the same 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drives as 11G PowerEdge servers and the same power supplies and fans as the PowerVault MD1220, reducing the cost of spares.
