Questions about this item

Does the 15000 RPM spindle speed limit sustained throughput compared to lower-RPM SAS drives?

The 15000 RPM spindle delivers high random IOPS for transaction workloads; sustained sequential throughput is capped by the SAS 12Gb/s interface.

What are the typical noise and heat levels when this 2.5" 15000 RPM drive runs continuously in a server chassis?

Expect noticeable whine and higher case temperatures; the 2.5" form factor concentrates heat, so adequate airflow across the drive is essential.

Which controller or backplane must the system already have to support the SAS 12Gb/s interface of this 900GB drive?

A SAS 12Gb/s HBA, RAID controller, or hot-swap backplane with 12Gb/s support is required; 6Gb/s controllers will negotiate down to 6Gb/s.
