Dell 5JM8G 1.2TB SAS Drive

This Dell 5JM8G is a 1.2TB internal hard drive with a 2.5-inch form factor. It operates at 10000 RPM over a SAS 12Gb/s interface. The unit is supplied new and supports hot-swap installation.

Server Builders Needing 10K SAS Storage

This drive suits servers and storage arrays that accept 2.5-inch SAS drives running at 10000 RPM. It is not for systems limited to 3.5-inch bays or those requiring a different interface protocol. Buyers needing larger capacity per drive should look elsewhere.

12Gb/s SAS Interface Determines Compatibility

The single specification that decides fit is the SAS 12Gb/s interface. The controller or backplane must support this signalling rate for the drive to function. Verify the host hardware matches this requirement before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does my system need a SAS 12Gb/s controller to use this 5JM8G drive?

Yes, the drive uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and requires a compatible controller or backplane to operate.

Will this 2.5" 10000 RPM SAS drive fit in the same hot-swap bays as my older 3.5" SAS drives?

No, the 2.5" form factor is physically smaller than 3.5" drives and will not fit the same bays without an adapter.

How can I verify the 1.2TB capacity and 12Gb/s link speed are active after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or OS disk utility; it should report 1.2TB capacity and a negotiated 12Gb/s SAS link.
