1.8 TB 10K RPM SAS 12Gb/s 512e drive

This Dell 400-AVUQ hard drive provides 1.8 TB of storage in a 2.5 inch form factor that fits a 3.5 inch hybrid carrier. It spins at 10000 RPM and uses a SAS interface running at 12 Gb/s for high data transfer speeds. The drive uses 512e disk format and is designed for hot-plug installation in compatible systems.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

The drive suits administrators expanding Dell PowerEdge or Precision storage where 512e SAS drives are qualified. Buyers whose hypervisor or operating system does not support 512e sector emulation must select a different part.

512e sector format compatibility

VMware does not support 512e or 4Kn hard drives. 512e drives are only supported with Windows 2008R2 or greater and some Linux distributions. Verify your platform supports 512e before purchase.
