Dell KXPGD 600GB 15K SAS Drive

This Dell KXPGD is a 2.5-inch internal hard drive built for enterprise servers and storage arrays. It delivers 600GB of capacity on a 12Gb/s SAS interface with a 15000 RPM spindle speed. The hot-swap tray design allows for quick replacement in supported bays. It is supplied new in original or OEM packaging.

Suits high-transaction workloads needing low latency

The 15K rotational speed targets databases, virtualisation hosts and mail servers where random I/O response matters most. Systems limited to slower spindle speeds or lower transfer rates will not realise the same throughput. Buyers needing larger single-drive capacities should consider alternative models.

12Gb/s SAS interface dictates controller

The drive requires a backplane or host bus adapter that supports 12Gb/s SAS signalling to operate at rated performance. Older 6Gb/s controllers will negotiate down to their maximum link speed. Verify your chassis and controller documentation before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5" SAS drive in a hot-swap tray without bending the connector?

Slide the drive into the carrier until the SAS connector seats firmly, then lock the tray lever; forcing it at an angle bends the pins.

What maintenance will the 15000 RPM 600GB drive need over its life?

No scheduled maintenance is required; monitor SMART attributes and replace the unit if reallocated sectors or seek errors appear.

At what point does the 12Gb/s SAS interface become the bottleneck during sustained writes?

Sequential throughput caps near the 12Gb/s link limit, so sustained transfers cannot exceed that bandwidth.
