Capacity and interface

This Dell internal hard drive offers 10TB of storage in a 3.5-inch form factor. It spins at 7200 RPM and connects through a SAS interface. The unit is supplied as a bare drive in new condition.

Suitable workloads and limitations

The drive fits nearline storage arrays and servers that accept 3.5-inch SAS devices. It is not intended for portable use or for systems that only provide 2.5-inch bays. Buyers who need a 15K spindle speed or a 12Gb/s interface should look at a different model.

Deciding specification

The SAS interface operates at 3Gb/s, which determines controller and backplane compatibility. Verify that your host adapter supports this link speed before purchasing. The 10TB capacity and 7200 RPM spindle speed are the other primary selection criteria.

Questions about this item

Does the bare drive include cables or a mounting bracket, or must I buy them separately?

The drive ships as a bare unit only; SAS data and power cables plus any 3.5" mounting hardware must be sourced separately.

Should I choose the 10 TB 7200 RPM model or the 300 GB 15K RPM alternative for capacity-focused storage?

The 10 TB 7200 RPM version provides far more capacity, while the 300 GB 15K RPM model prioritises speed over space.

What does the 10 TB capacity and 7200 RPM speed mean for everyday server workloads?

You gain roughly ten terabytes of nearline SAS storage with rotational latency suited to bulk data, backups and archival tasks.
