Dell 342-5295 4TB SAS Drive

This Dell 342-5295 is a 4TB internal hard drive spinning at 7200 RPM on a SAS interface. It is supplied as a kit compatible with Dell PowerEdge R520, R620 and R720 servers. The drive suits administrators who need reliable, high-capacity storage for enterprise workloads. Condition is new.

Replacing 7.2k SAS Drives

The drive directly replaces earlier 7.2k SAS units in the supported PowerEdge chassis. The jump is worth it when current bays are full and additional 4TB of nearline capacity is required without changing caddies or backplanes. It also fits refresh cycles that standardise on the 342-5295 part number.

Fits PowerEdge R520 R620 R720

Installation uses the existing SAS backplane and drive carriers in the R520, R620 or R720. No extra adapters are needed, freeing procurement time and reducing cabling changes. The 7200 RPM spindle delivers consistent throughput for bulk data, archives and backup targets.

Questions about this item

Will the 3.5-inch drive fit the hot-swap tray in my PowerEdge R520, R620 or R720?

The kit is built for the 3.5-inch hot-swap bays in the R520, R620 and R720; it slides directly into the tray without an adapter.

What is the correct way to seat the SAS drive in the tray so the backplane connector engages?

Align the drive with the tray rails, push until the SAS connector clicks firmly into the backplane, then lock the tray handle to secure it.

How can I tell when the 4 TB SAS drive should be replaced?

Monitor SMART attributes for rising reallocated-sector counts or pending-sector warnings; replace the drive once those indicators appear.
