Dell Compellent 2TB SAS drive for nearline storage

This Dell C2X2N Compellent hard drive provides 2TB of capacity on a 3.5 inch form factor with a SAS 12Gbps interface. It spins at 7.2K rpm for nearline workloads. The drive is supplied new and suits Compellent storage arrays or other systems that accept 12Gbps SAS devices.

Installation fits standard 3.5 inch drive bays

The drive slides into a compatible hot-swap tray and connects through the SAS backplane without extra cabling. Firmware mismatches between the drive and the controller can prevent the array from recognising the disk. Verify that the storage array firmware supports this model before installation.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 12Gbps SAS link is active after installing the drive?

Check the controller BIOS or management utility for a negotiated 12Gbps link speed and confirm the drive reports 2TB capacity with no errors during initialisation.

Does the package include a 3.5-inch SAS tray or cables, or must they be purchased separately?

The drive ships as a bare 3.5-inch unit; any hot-plug tray or SAS cables required for your enclosure must be sourced separately.
