Dell F4VMK 900GB 10K SAS Drive

This Dell F4VMK is a 900GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 10000 RPM. It uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and includes a hot-swap tray for direct installation. The drive is supplied new in original or OEM packaging. It is built for Dell EqualLogic storage arrays and compatible PowerEdge servers.

Suits arrays needing 10K SAS capacity

This drive fits administrators expanding or repairing Dell EqualLogic pools that require 10K SAS spindles. It also serves PowerEdge servers with 2.5-inch SAS backplanes. It is not for systems limited to 6Gb/s SAS controllers. It is not for builds needing larger capacities or solid-state speed.

SAS 12Gb/s interface

The single specification that decides fit is the SAS 12Gb/s interface. The host backplane and controller must support 12Gb/s SAS to realise the rated transfer rate. A 6Gb/s-only backplane will limit throughput. Verify the controller and backplane generation before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5" SAS drive into a Dell server tray, and which step is often missed?

Slide the drive into the hot-swap tray until the SAS connector seats firmly, then lock the lever; the step often missed is fully engaging the lever so the drive reports ready to the controller.

What maintenance or replacement will the 10000 RPM SAS drive need over time?

Plan to replace the drive once SMART reallocated-sector counts rise or after the rated workload limit is reached; no field-serviceable parts exist inside the sealed mechanism.

What limit appears first when the 900GB SAS 12Gb/s drive runs sustained writes?

The 10000 RPM mechanical latency and 12Gb/s interface throughput become the bottleneck before the 900GB capacity fills during heavy sequential workloads.
