  • Form factor2.5 in (6.35 cm)
  • Rotational speed7,200 RPM
  • 2 TB capacity stores large datasets
  • 7200 RPM spindle speed delivers responsive data access
  • SAS 12 Gb/s interface enables high-throughput transfers
  • 5-inch form factor fits dense server bays
  • Includes tray for direct Dell system installation

Capacity and form factor

The drive provides two terabytes of storage in a two point five inch form factor with a SAS twelve gigabit per second interface. It spins at seven thousand two hundred revolutions per minute and ships with a tray for direct installation in compatible bays.

Upgrade path

This unit replaces smaller capacity SAS drives or slower nearline models when additional space and consistent rotational speed are required. The jump is worthwhile when workloads demand sustained throughput rather than burst performance.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous read write cycles the spindle maintains its rated speed and the SAS link delivers steady data rates without thermal throttling. The mechanical design is built for always on operation in server and storage arrays.

Questions about this item

Does the 2.5" form factor and included tray fit a standard 3.5" drive bay?

The drive is a 2.5" unit shipped with a tray that adapts it to a 3.5" SAS bay; verify your chassis accepts that tray style before ordering.

What is the correct way to connect the SAS 12Gb/s interface during installation?

Attach the drive to a SAS backplane or HBA that supports 12Gb/s speeds, ensuring the tray locks fully so the dual-port connector seats without forcing the cable.

How often should the 7200 RPM spindle bearings be checked or the drive replaced under heavy workloads?

Enterprise SAS drives at 7200 RPM are rated for continuous operation; monitor SMART attributes and plan replacement when reallocated sectors or seek errors begin to rise.
