Silver 2.5 inch SAS hard drive with server tray

DELL

DELL HUC101812CSS204 1.2TB 10000RPM SAS 12Gb/s 2.5" 128MB internal hard drive

SKU CH-BX3N-SNNBN

A 1.2TB 10000RPM SAS internal hard drive with 128MB cache, supplied in a lot of 10 with Gen13 PowerEdge caddies included

  • 2TB capacity stores large datasets
  • 10000RPM speed accelerates data access
  • 12Gb/s SAS interface enables fast transfers
  • 128MB cache improves read-write performance
  • Includes caddy for Gen13 PowerEdge servers

Server storage array

This pack supplies ten Dell HUC101812CSS204 drives, each a 1.2TB 10000RPM SAS 12Gb/s unit with a 128MB buffer. They fit 2.5-inch bays in compatible Gen13 PowerEdge servers such as the R330, R430, R530, R630, R730, R730xd, R930, T330, T430, T530 and T630. The high spindle speed targets transactional workloads that demand low latency.

Included caddy tray

Every drive ships with a Gen13 PowerEdge caddy that locks directly into the supported server chassis. The tray removes the need to source separate mounting hardware and ensures correct alignment with the backplane. Installation becomes a simple slide-and-lock action during maintenance windows.

SAS 12Gb/s interface limit

The 12Gb/s SAS link caps sustained throughput at the bus rate, so sequential performance cannot exceed that ceiling. Random I/O benefits from the 10000RPM rotation but remains bound by mechanical seek time. Workloads requiring higher bandwidth or lower latency than this interface delivers will need a different storage tier.

Questions about this item

How often will the 1.2TB 10000RPM SAS drive need replacement in a RAID array?

Enterprise SAS drives at 10000RPM are built for continuous operation; replacement timing depends on workload intensity and RAID redundancy level rather than a fixed interval.

What limit appears first when the 12Gb/s SAS interface runs sustained writes?

The 10000RPM mechanical latency and 128MB cache size constrain sustained write throughput before the 12Gb/s interface saturates.

How much noise and heat does the 2.5" 10000RPM SAS drive generate in a Gen13 PowerEdge server?

The 2.5" 10000RPM SAS drive produces typical enterprise-level acoustics and heat; the included Gen13 PowerEdge caddy ensures proper airflow alignment for cooling.
