Dell 36RH9 SAS hot-plug drive

The Dell 36RH9 is a 1.2TB 2.5" SAS hard drive spinning at 10000 RPM with a 6Gb/s interface. It ships with the drive tray required for hot-plug installation in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers. The part number 36RH9 identifies this genuine Dell component for straightforward ordering and inventory tracking.

Suited for PowerEdge storage arrays

This drive fits a wide range of PowerEdge rack, tower and blade models including the R610, R620, R630, R710, R720, R730, R730XD, T410, T420, T610, T620, T630 and M610 families. It is built for environments that need 10K rotational speed and hot-plug serviceability. Systems that require a larger capacity per bay, a different physical form factor or a non-SAS interface will need an alternative part.

10000 RPM spindle speed

The 10000 RPM spindle speed is the key specification that determines whether this drive meets the performance profile for transactional workloads and mixed-use arrays. Buyers should verify that their controller and backplane support the SAS 6Gb/s link and that the 1.2TB capacity aligns with their storage layout before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 10000 RPM SAS drive draw when running all day?

A 2.5 inch 10000 RPM SAS drive typically draws 7 to 9 watts while active and 3 to 4 watts idle, so sustained operation stays under 10 watts.

What server tray or backplane do I already need to install the 36RH9?

The drive ships with a Dell hot-plug tray that fits 2.5 inch bays in PowerEdge M600, M610, R610, R620, R630, R710, R720, R730 and similar PE-Series servers.

Will the 6Gb/s SAS interface work with my older 3Gb/s PowerEdge backplane?

Yes, SAS 6Gb/s is backward compatible with 3Gb/s controllers, so the 36RH9 will run at the slower link speed on earlier PowerEdge models.
