900 GB 10K SAS enterprise drive

This Dell 2.5-inch hard drive delivers 900 GB of storage on a 10000 RPM spindle with a 6 Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI interface. It is built for enterprise servers and storage arrays that demand consistent throughput and low latency. The drive ships new in ESD-safe packaging with updated firmware.

Suits high-transaction workloads.

The 10000 RPM spindle suits databases, virtualisation hosts and transaction-heavy applications that benefit from fast random access. Buyers who need maximum terabytes per rack unit or archival-grade write endurance should consider alternative drive classes.

SAS 6 Gb/s interface requirement

The drive connects exclusively through a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 6 Gb/s port. Verify that your backplane, HBA or RAID controller presents a native SAS connection before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much heat and noise does the 10000 RPM SAS drive produce during continuous operation?

The 2.5" 900GB drive spins at 10000 RPM; 10K SAS drives typically run warmer and louder than slower drives, so plan for active airflow in the chassis.

What controller or backplane is required to run this 6 Gb/s SAS drive?

A SAS host bus adapter or server backplane with 6 Gb/s SAS ports is needed; the drive uses the standard SAS connector.

Will this 2.5" SAS drive fit in my older 3.5" drive bay?

The drive is a 2.5" form factor; you will need a 2.5"-to-3.5" adapter bracket to mount it in a 3.5" bay.
