Capacity and interface

This Dell 1DKVF is a 146 GB SAS internal hard drive that spins at 15 000 RPM in a 3.5 inch form factor. It is built for servers and workstations that need fast, reliable access to relatively small datasets.

Who this suits

The 15 000 RPM spindle speed and SAS 6Gb/s interface suit environments where low latency and sustained throughput matter more than raw capacity. Buyers who need more storage space, a different physical connector, or a slower nearline drive should look elsewhere.

Deciding specification

The single specification that decides fit is the SAS 6Gb/s interface combined with the 15 000 RPM spindle speed; both must be supported by the host controller and backplane for the drive to function.

Questions about this item

Will the 146GB 15000 RPM SAS drive work alongside existing SAS drives in the same backplane?

Yes, the 15000 RPM SAS 6Gb/s interface matches standard SAS backplanes so the 146GB drive can share a chassis with other SAS drives.

How do I confirm the 15000 RPM drive is recognised and healthy after installation?

The drive should appear in the RAID controller BIOS or OS disk utility at its full 146GB capacity with the SAS 6Gb/s link speed reported.

Does the 3.5" drive ship with the hot-swap tray and are cables included?

The unit includes the hot-swap tray shown for PowerEdge and Precision systems; SAS data and power cables are not supplied.
