8TB SAS drive for Dell PowerEdge servers

This 8TB SAS hard drive spins at 7.2K RPM and connects through a 12Gb/s interface. It is supplied with a compatible caddy for direct installation in listed Dell PowerEdge models. The drive suits administrators expanding storage arrays in supported rack and tower servers.

Check controller and bay compatibility before

Verify that your server has an available 3.5-inch SAS bay and a controller that supports 12Gb/s SAS drives. The included caddy fits the specific PowerEdge generations listed in the product data. Servers not listed may use a different caddy design or backplane connector.

Thermals noise and power in normal operation

Mechanical drives of this class produce audible seek noise and vibration during heavy I/O. Typical operating temperatures stay within standard enterprise drive limits when installed in a ventilated chassis with active airflow. Power draw varies with workload but remains consistent with 7.2K RPM SAS specifications.

Questions about this item

Does the drive ship with the Dell caddy for my R730 or must I buy it separately?

The listing states the drive comes with a compatible Dell caddy that fits R730 and many other PowerEdge servers.

I see several Dell part numbers — 400-BLCB, 400-BEGX, 400-AVVI, 400-AWEU, 400-BCWT — which one should I order?

All five part numbers refer to the same 8 TB SAS 12 Gbit/s 7.2k rpm 3.5" drive; choose whichever matches your existing service tag.

What does the 12 Gbit/s SAS rating deliver inside a PowerEdge R720?

It provides a 12 Gbit/s host interface speed; actual throughput depends on the controller, backplane and RAID level in that server.
