Dell 4F32F 6 TB SAS hard drive

The Dell 4F32F is a 3.5 inch internal hard drive built for Dell PowerEdge and PowerVault servers. It delivers 6 TB of storage on a SAS 12Gb/s interface and spins at 7200 RPM. The drive uses SLC NAND flash memory and ships as a bare drive with tray. It targets administrators who need reliable nearline capacity for enterprise arrays.

Capacity and workload fit

Six terabytes provides ample space for bulk data, backups and archival workloads that benefit from sequential throughput. The 7200 RPM spindle and 12Gb/s SAS link sustain steady transfer rates for typical nearline duties. Random I/O intensive applications such as heavy databases or virtualisation clusters will exhaust IOPS headroom before capacity fills. Buyers who need higher random performance or lower latency should consider alternative media.

Included tray and firmware integration

The supplied tray enables direct installation into compatible Dell server bays without extra hardware. Dell firmware on the drive ensures full compatibility with PERC controllers and system management tools for monitoring and alerting. No additional software licences or utilities are bundled. Administrators relying on third‑party RAID controllers must verify SAS 12Gb/s support independently.

Questions about this item

Will the 12 Gb/s SAS interface work with my older 6 Gb/s SAS backplane?

The drive uses a 12 Gb/s SAS interface which is backward compatible with 6 Gb/s SAS controllers and backplanes, so it will operate at the lower speed without any configuration changes.

How can I verify the 7200 RPM spindle speed is active after installation?

Check the drive’s reported rotational speed in the server BIOS, RAID controller utility or operating system disk information; it should list 7200 RPM for this model.

Does the bare drive include a mounting tray or do I need to buy one separately?

The product is supplied as a bare drive without a tray; a compatible 3.5-inch SAS tray for your PowerEdge or PowerVault chassis must be purchased separately.
