Capacity and interface

This Dell 300GB SAS 12Gb/s drive uses a 2.5 inch form factor and spins at 10000 RPM. It is built for enterprise storage arrays and servers that require a 512n sector format. The new condition means the unit has not been previously deployed in a production environment.

Who this suits

Database administrators and storage engineers who need a high-speed 300GB tier for transaction logs or caching will benefit from the 10K spindle speed and SAS 12Gb/s interface. Buyers who need more capacity per bay or a different sector size should look at other models.

Deciding specification

The 512n native sector size is the single specification that determines compatibility with controllers and operating systems that do not support 512e or 4Kn formats. Verify that your RAID controller and OS explicitly support 512n before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will this 2.5" SAS drive fit my server's drive bay?

The drive uses a standard 2.5" form factor and SAS 12Gb/s interface, so it fits any bay and backplane that accepts 2.5" SAS drives.

What is the correct way to install this drive in a hot-swap tray?

Slide the drive into the tray until the SAS connector seats firmly on the backplane; the step often missed is not pushing far enough to engage the latch.

When should I expect to replace this 10000 RPM enterprise drive?

Enterprise 10000 RPM SAS drives are rated for continuous operation; monitor SMART attributes and replace when reallocated sectors or latency spikes appear.
