Enterprise Capacity Drive

The DELL 400-AGVZ is a 1.2TB internal hard drive built for enterprise storage arrays. Its SAS 12Gb/s interface and 10000 RPM spindle target workloads that demand consistent throughput and low latency. The 2.5 inch form factor fits dense server chassis where 3.5 inch bays are unavailable. It is not suited for desktop PCs lacking a SAS controller or hot-plug backplane.

Hot-Plug SAS Build

A SAS 12Gb/s connector enables dual-port redundancy and hot-plug insertion without powering down the enclosure. The 2.5 inch frame slides into standard drive carriers used in DELL PowerEdge and compatible rack servers. No mounting brackets or adapter cables are included, so installation assumes an existing hot-swap cage. Build quality follows enterprise specifications for continuous operation.

Ready For Array Integration

The drive ships in retail or OEM packing that may vary, with no additional accessories or management software in the box. Configuration relies entirely on the host RAID controller or storage operating system. Buyers who need caddies, cables or firmware tools must source them separately. The SLC NAND flash memory type supports the drive's internal caching and reliability functions.

Questions about this item

What does the SAS 12Gb/s interface cap in real use?

The SAS 12Gb/s interface supports up to 12 Gb/s signalling, but sustained throughput is limited by the 10000 RPM mechanical design and the 1.2 TB capacity.

What physical space and mounting does the 2.5 inch drive require?

The drive uses a standard 2.5 inch form factor and is built for hot-plug enterprise bays with the SAS connector on the backplane.

How is the drive installed and what step is often missed?

Slide the drive into a hot-plug SAS bay until it clicks; the step often missed is ensuring the release lever fully locks the carrier into the backplane.
