Dell 300 GB 15K SAS Drive

This Dell 400-AJRO is a 300 GB internal hard drive with a 2.5 inch form factor. It spins at 15000 rpm and uses a 12 Gb/s SAS interface for server or storage array installation. The unit is supplied new and ready for deployment in compatible bays.

Suits SAS storage arrays only

The drive fits 2.5 inch SAS bays that accept 12 Gb/s connections and 15K spindle speeds. It does not suit systems without a SAS backplane or controller. Buyers who need a portable USB enclosure or a different interface should look at other products.

12 Gb/s SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 12 Gb/s SAS interface. Your chassis and controller must support this exact standard for the drive to function.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 15000 rpm spindle speed is active after connecting the SAS 12Gb/s interface?

The drive should be recognised by the host controller at 12Gb/s SAS and report 300 GB capacity; sustained transfer rates consistent with a 15K rpm spindle confirm correct operation.

What comes in the box with the DELL 400-AJRO and what must I source separately?

The package contains the 2.5-inch 300 GB SAS hard drive only; a compatible SAS backplane, cabling and power supply must be provided by the system or enclosure.

Which capacity and spindle speed version of this SAS drive should I choose for a 12Gb/s array?

This model is the 300 GB 15000 rpm variant; select it when the array requires maximum IOPS at 12Gb/s SAS, otherwise choose a lower-capacity or lower-rpm SKU.
