Dell 342-0450 1TB SAS drive

This is a 1TB internal hard drive with a SAS 6Gb/s interface and a 7200 RPM spindle speed. It uses a 3.5-inch form factor and is supplied as a bare drive. The unit is designed for near-line storage workloads in compatible Dell PowerEdge and PowerVault systems.

Suited for server storage upgrades

This drive fits administrators expanding capacity in listed Dell PowerEdge 2900, 2970, R300, R900, R905 or T300 servers and PowerVault MD1000, MD3000 or MD3000i arrays. It is not for systems that lack a SAS backplane or controller, nor for users who need a drive with a different physical interface.

SAS 6Gb/s interface decides fit

The drive communicates over a 6Gb/s SAS connection, so the host must provide a compatible SAS port and backplane. Without that specific interface the drive cannot be installed or used.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell 342-0450 need a specific backplane to work?

Yes, it requires a SAS 6Gb/s backplane or HBA with a 3.5" drive bay.

Can I mix this 1TB 7200 RPM drive with older SAS drives in the same array?

It will run at the speed of the slowest drive; ensure the controller supports mixed capacities and 7200 RPM spindles.

How do I verify the drive is healthy after installing it in a PowerEdge server?

Check the controller BIOS or iDRAC for the correct 1TB capacity, 7200 RPM speed, and SAS 6Gb/s link with no SMART errors.
