Dell RDKH0 SAS Drive

The Dell RDKH0 is a new 300GB internal hard drive built for enterprise servers and storage arrays. It uses a 2.5-inch form factor and connects through a SAS interface running at 12Gb/s. The spindle rotates at 10000 RPM to deliver consistent performance for random I/O workloads.

Suits hot-swap bays needing 10K speed

This drive fits 2.5-inch hot-swap trays that accept SAS 12Gb/s devices and require 10000 RPM throughput. It is not for systems that only support lower SAS link speeds or 3.5-inch drive cages. Buyers needing larger capacity or a different interface should consider other models.

SAS 12Gb/s interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the SAS 12Gb/s interface. The host backplane or controller must support this exact link rate for the drive to operate. Verify the system documentation before purchase.

Questions about this item

What SAS controller or backplane do I need for the 12Gb/s interface on this RDKH0 drive?

The drive requires a SAS controller or backplane that supports 12Gb/s SAS signalling. It will negotiate down to 6Gb/s if connected to an older 6Gb/s SAS host.

Will this 2.5-inch 10000 RPM SAS drive work in a server bay that currently holds 6Gb/s SAS drives?

Yes. The RDKH0 uses the standard SAS connector and is backwards compatible with 6Gb/s SAS backplanes, though it will run at the lower 6Gb/s link speed.

How can I confirm the drive is running at its full 12Gb/s link speed after installation?

Check the negotiated link rate in your RAID controller BIOS, HBA utility, or operating-system storage tools; it should report 12Gb/s for this drive.
