High-performance SAS storage

This Dell 342-2087 drive delivers 300GB capacity with a 15000 RPM spindle speed and SAS 6Gb/s interface. It is built as a bare 3.5" drive for internal server deployment. Manufacturer testing validates compatibility with Dell systems.

Suited for enterprise workloads

The high spindle speed and SAS interface suit transaction-heavy applications and database servers needing fast, consistent access. Buyers needing larger capacity per drive or lower power consumption should evaluate alternative storage options.

15000 RPM spindle speed

This rotational speed is the primary determinant of random I/O performance and average latency for the drive. Confirm that the target server backplane supports 3.5" SAS drives and that the 300GB capacity meets the array design requirements.

Questions about this item

How often will the 15000 RPM spindle bearings need replacement in a Dell 342-2087 drive?

The 15000 RPM spindle is a sealed mechanical assembly; bearing replacement is not a user-serviceable task and the drive is replaced as a unit when it reaches end of life.

What performance limit appears first when the 300GB SAS 6Gb/s drive runs sustained workloads?

The 15000 RPM mechanical latency and the SAS 6Gb/s interface throughput set the ceiling for continuous read or write operations.

How much heat and noise does the 3.5" 15000 RPM SAS drive produce during all-day operation?

The high spindle speed generates measurable heat and audible seek noise, so the drive requires adequate chassis airflow for continuous server use.
