1.2TB SAS drive for hot-plug bays
This 1.2TB hard drive uses a SAS 12Gbps interface and a 2.5 inch form factor for hot-plug server bays. It spins at 10K RPM with a 512n sector format. The drive is designed for enterprise storage arrays and compatible Dell PowerEdge systems.
Sustained throughput on 10K spindles
Under continuous load the 10K RPM spindle maintains steady data rates without the thermal throttling seen in faster burst-only workloads. The SAS 12Gbps link keeps command queues full during long sequential transfers. Hot-plug capability allows replacement without powering down the enclosure. The 512n layout avoids read-modify-write penalties on legacy applications.
