2.4 TB SAS drive for servers

This 2.4 TB SAS hard drive operates at 10000 RPM and is built for Dell server and storage arrays. The 12 Gb/s interface supports high-throughput workloads such as databases and virtualisation. It is supplied as a bare drive with a hot-swap tray for direct insertion into compatible bays.

Capacity and headroom at 10K speed

The 2.4 TB capacity holds large datasets while the 10000 RPM spindle keeps latency low for random reads. Sequential throughput scales with the 12 Gb/s link, but sustained transfers will saturate below the interface maximum. Workloads needing higher IOPS or lower latency will outgrow this mechanical design.

Fits 2.5 inch hot-swap bays

The 2.5 inch form factor slides into standard SAS hot-swap backplanes without adapters. A SAS controller or RAID card with 12 Gb/s ports is required to reach the rated transfer rate. The bare-drive packaging means no cables or mounting hardware are included.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.4TB SAS drive fit in a server that only has 2.5-inch bays and a 6Gb/s backplane?

Yes, the 2.5-inch form factor matches the bay size and the SAS interface negotiates down to 6Gb/s automatically.

How can I confirm the 10000 RPM drive is running at the full 12Gb/s transfer rate after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or management utility; it will report the negotiated link speed as 12Gb/s when the backplane supports it.

Does the bare-drive 400-AUZV include a hot-swap tray or do I need to order one separately?

The drive ships as a bare unit without a tray; a compatible Dell hot-swap tray must be purchased separately.
