Server Storage Drive

The Dell 342-2082 is a 600GB internal hard drive built for 3.5-inch server bays. It spins at 15000 RPM and connects through a SAS interface with a 12Gb/s average latency. The bare drive arrives without retail packaging and includes a 16MB buffer for performance.

Enterprise Workload Fit

This drive suits administrators adding hot-plug capacity to compatible Dell PowerEdge towers, racks or blades such as the R720 or T430, and to Dell storage arrays like the MD3220. It is not for buyers who require a different interface standard or a form factor other than 3.5-inch.

Deciding Specification

The SAS 6Gb/s interface standard determines whether this drive matches your backplane and controller. Verify that your server or array lists the 342-2082 in its supported device matrix before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Does my server backplane accept a 3.5-inch SAS drive with a 6Gb/s interface?

The drive uses a standard 3.5-inch form factor and a SAS 6Gb/s interface, so any backplane wired for that connector and speed will accept it.

Will the 15000 RPM spindle speed cause compatibility issues with older Dell PowerEdge models like the T100 or R210?

The drive is listed as compatible with those PowerEdge generations; the higher spindle speed works within the same SAS protocol and power envelope.

How can I verify the drive is recognised at full speed after installation?

Check the RAID controller BIOS or operating system disk utility; it should report a 600GB SAS device negotiating at 6Gb/s with a 16MB buffer.
