1.8TB 2.5" SAS 12Gb/s Enterprise Drive

This Dell 400-AMGE is a 1.8TB 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a SAS interface running at 12Gb/s. It spins at 10000 RPM and is supplied as a bare drive with a hot-swap tray. The unit is designed for enterprise storage arrays and compatible Dell PowerEdge servers.

Suited for High-IOPS Server Workloads

This drive suits administrators who need 10K RPM performance for transactional databases or virtualisation clusters. It is not for systems that lack a SAS backplane or controller, nor for builds that require a 3.5-inch form factor. Buyers needing larger capacities or solid-state latency should evaluate other options.

12Gb/s SAS Interface Determines Compatibility

The single specification that decides fitment is the 12Gb/s SAS interface. The host must provide a SAS 12Gb/s connection and a 2.5-inch hot-swap bay to use this drive. Without that interface the drive cannot be installed or operated.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 400-AMGE 2.5" SAS drive in a hot-swap bay and what step is often missed?

Slide the drive into the hot-swap tray until the SAS connector seats firmly; the step often missed is not pushing far enough for the latch to click.

What maintenance or replacement will the 1.8TB 10000 RPM SAS drive need later?

Plan to replace the mechanical drive after its rated service life; no user-serviceable parts exist inside the sealed 2.5" housing.

What limit appears first on the 12Gb/s SAS interface under sustained write loads?

The 10000 RPM spindle caps sustained throughput before the 12Gb/s SAS link saturates.
