Server storage upgrade

This 1.8TB SAS drive delivers 10000 RPM performance with a 12Gb/s interface for Dell EMC PowerVault MD12XX enclosures. The 256MB cache and 512e format support hot-swap replacement during operation. Average seek time of 4.5 ms suits transaction-heavy workloads.

Database and virtualization workloads

The 10K spindle speed and low latency suit OLTP databases, virtualisation hosts and high-IOPS applications. Buyers needing larger capacity per bay or lower power consumption should consider alternatives. Systems without SAS 12Gb/s backplane support cannot use this drive.

12Gb/s SAS interface requirement

Compatibility depends on a SAS 12Gb/s backplane or controller in the target enclosure. The drive fits 2.5-inch hot-swap bays in supported Dell EMC PowerVault MD12XX units. Verify the host system provides SAS 12Gb/s connectivity before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5" SFF form factor fit in my Dell EMC PowerVault MD12XX enclosure?

Yes, the 2.5 inch SFF design matches the drive bays in Dell EMC PowerVault MD12XX enclosures for direct insertion.

How do I install this hot-swap SAS drive without shutting down the server?

Slide the drive into an empty bay until the SAS 12Gb/s connector seats firmly; the hot-swap feature lets the system recognise it while running.

When should I plan to replace the 1.8TB 10000 RPM drive in a high-write environment?

Monitor SMART reallocated-sector counts and average seek time; rising values beyond 4.5 ms signal bearing or media wear that warrants replacement.
