Silver 2.5 inch SAS hard drive with black Dell caddy tray

DELL

DELL HUC101818CS424 1.8TB 10000RPM SAS 2.5" internal hard drive

SKU CH-DXQM-RS484

1.8 TB 10000 RPM SAS drive with 512 MB cache fits 2.5 inch bays and includes a caddy

  • 8TB capacity stores large server datasets
  • 10000RPM spindle delivers fast transactional throughput
  • SAS 6Gb/s interface enables direct controller connection
  • 512MB cache buffers heavy random I/O bursts
  • Includes Dell R-series caddy for hot-swap bay fit

Enterprise SAS Drive for Server Arrays

This 1.8TB 2.5-inch SAS hard drive spins at 10000RPM and connects through a 6Gb/s interface. It ships new with an included R Series caddy for direct installation in compatible Dell server bays. The 512MB cache helps smooth burst I/O across multi-drive volumes.

Sustained Workload Behaviour

The 10000RPM spindle maintains consistent throughput under continuous read and write streams typical of database and virtualisation workloads. A 512MB buffer absorbs transient spikes without forcing the actuator to seek excessively. The SAS 6Gb/s link keeps command queuing efficient during prolonged queue depths.

Capacity and Interface Decide Fit

Total usable space is 1.8TB, which sets the storage ceiling for any single-drive deployment. The 2.5-inch SAS 6Gb/s connector limits use to backplanes and controllers that support that exact physical and electrical interface. Buyers needing larger single volumes or a different connector must select another part.

Questions about this item

How much power and heat does the 10000RPM SAS drive generate during continuous operation?

The 1.8TB 10000RPM SAS drive is built for 24/7 enterprise workloads; its 512MB buffer helps sustain throughput while the 2.5" form factor keeps power draw and heat within typical server chassis limits.

What controller or backplane must I already have for the 6Gb/s SAS interface to work?

You need a SAS host bus adapter, RAID controller or server backplane that supports 6Gb/s SAS signalling and can address a 2.5" drive with a 512MB cache.

Will the included R Series caddy fit the drive bays in my older Dell PowerEdge server?

The supplied R Series tray matches the standard 2.5" SAS bay used in compatible Dell PowerEdge models, so the 1.8TB 10000RPM drive installs directly without adapters.
