Dell 400-AEEE 300 GB SAS drive

The Dell 400-AEEE is a 300 GB internal hard drive built for servers and storage arrays that require a 2.5 inch form factor. It targets administrators who need reliable capacity for database logs, virtualisation hosts or tiered storage pools. Buyers who want larger single-drive capacity or solid-state speed should evaluate other models.

6Gb/s SAS interface

The drive connects through a 6Gb/s SAS interface, which determines compatibility with controllers and backplanes in Dell PowerEdge and equivalent enterprise chassis. This single specification decides whether the module fits the existing storage fabric.

10000 rpm thermals and power

Spinning at 10000 rpm, the drive generates typical enterprise-class heat and acoustic output for a 2.5 inch SAS spindle. Power draw follows standard 6Gb/s SAS limits during sustained read and write workloads. No wireless LAN is present.

Questions about this item

What does the 10000 rpm spindle speed mean for access times in a server?

A 10000 rpm platter cuts average rotational latency to about 3 ms, so random read and write requests complete faster than on slower drives.

What does the 6Gb/s SAS interface limit in practice?

The SAS link runs at 6 Gbit/s, capping the maximum sustained transfer rate the drive can deliver to the controller.

Will the 2.5 inch form factor fit my Dell PowerEdge bay?

The drive uses a standard 2.5 inch internal form factor designed for hot-plug bays in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers.
