Dell PowerEdge SAS drive with tray

This is a Dell-branded 450 GB 3.5-inch SAS hard drive spinning at 15,000 RPM and supplied with an R-Series hot-plug tray. It is built for direct installation into compatible PowerEdge servers. The drive carries the Dell part number FM501 and the Seagate model ST3450856SS.

Suits maintainers of listed PowerEdge models

It fits the 1950, 2900, 2950, 2970, 6850, 6950, 840, 860, R200, R300, R900, R905, SC140, SC145, SC440, T100, T105 and T300 families. The supplier notes the list is not exhaustive and some MD PowerVault arrays may also accept it. Buyers who need a different capacity or a non-SAS interface should look at other parts.

3 Gbps SAS interface speed

The drive communicates over a 3 Gbps SAS link, so the host controller or backplane must provide a matching 3 Gbps SAS connection. Systems limited to a slower SAS generation or a different protocol will not be able to use this drive.
