Dell 0T871K 300GB SAS drive

The Dell 0T871K is a 300GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a SAS 6Gb/s interface spinning at 10000 RPM. It uses SLC NAND flash memory and includes a 16MB buffer for write caching. This drive fits Dell PowerEdge server bays and arrives new in retail or OEM packaging. It targets administrators replacing failed drives or expanding arrays in compatible 2.5-inch SAS backplanes.

Sustained 10K RPM throughput

At 10000 RPM the platters maintain constant angular velocity so sequential read and write rates stay stable across long backup or database jobs. The SAS 6Gb/s link provides enough bus bandwidth to keep the mechanical media fed without bottlenecking. The 16MB buffer absorbs bursty write traffic so the actuator can stay on track during heavy random I/O. Thermal output remains consistent because spindle speed does not throttle under load.

2.5-inch SAS tray mounting

The drive ships mounted in a Dell 2.5-inch hot-plug tray that slides directly into PowerEdge drive cages without tools. SAS connectors on the tray mate with the backplane for both data and power so no separate cables are required. The 5.1 ounce weight keeps tray loading light even when multiple bays are populated. The SLC flash layer adds endurance for frequent metadata updates in RAID configurations.

Questions about this item

How much heat and noise does the 10000 RPM spindle speed produce during continuous server use?

The 10000 RPM spindle speed and SAS 6Gb/s interface draw more power and generate more heat than slower drives; ensure your server chassis provides adequate airflow for 2.5 inch bays.

Does the Dell 0T871K include the mounting tray shown in the photo, or must I supply my own 2.5 inch caddy?

The supplier description states the drive ships with a tray for PowerEdge servers, so no separate caddy is required for compatible Dell bays.

Will the SAS 6Gb/s interface work with an older 3Gb/s SAS backplane in my legacy PowerEdge?

The SAS 6Gb/s interface is backward compatible with 3Gb/s SAS backplanes, though the drive will operate at the lower 3Gb/s link speed.
