Dell 342-3515 3TB SAS Hard Drive

This new Dell 342-3515 is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive with a 3TB capacity. It uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface and spins at 7200 RPM. The drive includes a hot-swap tray and is designed for server environments.

Server Storage Upgrade

The drive suits administrators adding nearline capacity to compatible Dell PowerEdge servers or storage arrays that accept 3.5-inch SAS hot-swap drives. It is not for buyers who need a different interface or a smaller form factor.

6Gb/s SAS Transfer Rate

The specification that decides fit is the 6Gb/s SAS transfer rate. Your controller or backplane must support this speed and the SAS protocol for the drive to operate correctly.
