Dell M61PY 1.2TB SAS Drive

The Dell M61PY is a new 1.2TB internal hard drive with a 2.5 inch form factor. It uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and spins at 10000 RPM for enterprise workloads. The hot-swap tray design allows for easy installation in compatible bays. This drive suits servers and storage arrays needing reliable capacity.

Who This Suits

Administrators expanding Dell PowerEdge or compatible SAS storage systems will value the 12Gb/s transfer rate and 10K speed. The hot-swap capability simplifies maintenance in live environments. Buyers needing a different interface protocol or a larger physical form factor should look at other drive types. Systems without a SAS backplane cannot use this drive.

Deciding Specification

The SAS 12Gb/s interface is the single specification that decides compatibility. Your controller or backplane must support this exact protocol and speed. Without a SAS connection, the drive will not function regardless of capacity or RPM.

Questions about this item

Does the M61PY ship with a hot-swap tray or just the bare 2.5" drive?

The listing states "Hot Swap" and notes that packing may vary, so the drive may arrive with or without a tray.

Is the 1.2 TB 10000 RPM model the only capacity and speed offered under part M61PY?

Yes, the Dell M61PY is specified as a single 1.2 TB capacity running at 10000 RPM with a SAS 12Gb/s interface.

Will a SAS 12Gb/s controller actually deliver 12 Gb/s throughput with this 10000 RPM drive in a server?

The 12 Gb/s figure is the interface link speed; real-world throughput depends on the 10000 RPM mechanics and system workload.
