Dell 400-ANYW 1.2 TB SAS drive

The Dell 400-ANYW is a 1.2 TB internal hard drive with a 2.5 inch form factor, SAS 12 Gb/s interface and 10000 RPM spindle speed. It is built for Dell servers and storage arrays that accept hot-swap 2.5 inch SAS drives.

Suits enterprise arrays needing hot-swap 10K SAS

This drive fits administrators who need a 1.2 TB 10 K RPM SAS device with hot-swap capability for compatible Dell systems. Buyers whose platforms only support slower spindle speeds, smaller capacities or non-hot-swap bays should consider other models.

12 Gb/s SAS interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the 12 Gb/s SAS interface; the host backplane and controller must support this exact signalling rate. Without a matching 12 Gb/s SAS connection the drive will not operate.

Questions about this item

Do I need a SAS 12Gb/s backplane or controller to use the Dell 400-ANYW 1.2TB drive?

Yes, the drive requires a SAS 12Gb/s interface; your server or enclosure must provide a compatible SAS backplane or HBA for the 2.5" hot-swap tray to function.

Will the 10000 RPM SAS drive work in a bay that currently holds slower SAS disks?

The 10K RPM unit is fully compatible with any SAS 12Gb/s backplane; it will negotiate the 12Gb/s link speed while coexisting with slower SAS drives on the same bus.

How can I confirm the 1.2TB drive is running at 12Gb/s after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or management utility — it should report a negotiated link speed of 12Gb/s and show the Dell 400-ANYW at its full 1.2TB capacity with 10000 RPM operation.
