Dell 401-ABDX 2TB 3.5" SATA Hard Drive

This Dell 401-ABDX drive provides 2TB of storage in a standard 3.5 inch form factor. It connects through a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface and spins at 7200 RPM. The unit is supplied as a bare drive without a mounting tray. It is built for desktop systems that accept 3.5 inch SATA drives.

Ideal for desktop storage upgrades and replacements

This drive suits users who need a 2TB mechanical hard drive with a SATA connection for a compatible desktop computer. It is not for buyers who require solid-state performance or a smaller 2.5 inch form factor. Systems that only support M.2 or PCIe storage cannot use this drive.

The SATA 6.0Gb/s interface decides compatibility

Your motherboard or controller must provide a SATA 6.0Gb/s port to connect this drive. The 3.5 inch physical size requires a matching drive bay in the chassis. Verify both the interface and the bay before purchase.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 7200 RPM drive get when running continuously?

The 7200 RPM mechanism produces typical desktop hard-drive noise and heat; ensure your case has adequate airflow for a 3.5" drive.

What cables and mounting hardware do I need to install the 401-ABDX?

You need a SATA data cable, a SATA power connector from your PSU, and a 3.5" drive bay or mounting bracket with screws.

Will this SATA 6.0Gb/s drive work in a system that only has older SATA ports?

Yes, the SATA interface negotiates the highest speed both ends support, so it will operate with earlier SATA revisions.
