Capacity and interface

The DELL FY96C provides 1.2TB of storage on a 2.5-inch SAS drive spinning at 10000 RPM. It is built for enterprise servers and storage arrays that require consistent throughput and dual-port connectivity.

Suitable workloads

This drive suits databases, virtualisation hosts and transactional workloads that benefit from low latency and high IOPS. It is not intended for desktop PCs or consumer laptops that lack a SAS backplane or HBA.

Sustained operation

The 10000 RPM spindle maintains steady transfer rates during extended read-write cycles typical of always-on environments. SLC NAND flash memory supports write endurance and data integrity under continuous load.

Questions about this item

What controller or backplane is required for the FY96C 1.2TB SAS drive?

A SAS-compatible controller or backplane is needed; the drive uses the SAS interface and operates at 10000 RPM.

Will the 2.5" 10000 RPM SAS drive fit in a 3.5" bay with an adapter?

The 2.5" form factor allows installation in a 3.5" bay using a suitable adapter bracket.

How can I verify the 1.2TB capacity is recognised after installation?

The operating system or RAID utility should report approximately 1.2TB of usable space once the drive is initialised.
