Dell RHVWG 6TB SAS hard drive

The Dell RHVWG is a 6TB 3.5" internal hard drive with a SAS 12Gb/s interface spinning at 7200 RPM. It is built for hot-swap bays in Dell servers and storage arrays. The drive arrives new in retail or OEM packaging.

Suits RAID arrays and hot-swap bays

This drive suits administrators expanding capacity in Dell PowerEdge or PowerVault systems that accept 3.5" SAS hot-swap trays. It is not for laptops, small-form-factor desktops, or any chassis that cannot accommodate a full-height 3.5" drive. Buyers needing a non-hot-swap drive or a different interface should look elsewhere.

SAS 12Gb/s interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the SAS 12Gb/s interface; the host backplane or controller must support this exact protocol. A system limited to a slower SAS generation or a different interconnect will not recognise the drive. Verify the controller documentation before purchase.

Questions about this item

What host controller or backplane do I need to connect this 12Gb/s SAS drive?

A SAS host bus adapter or RAID controller with a 12Gb/s external or internal port and a 3.5-inch hot-swap backplane that carries SAS signals.

Will this 7200 RPM SAS drive work in a chassis that currently runs 6Gb/s SAS drives?

Yes, the drive negotiates down to 6Gb/s on a 6Gb/s backplane and runs at its native 7200 RPM spindle speed.

How can I verify the drive is recognised at 12Gb/s after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or OS utility; it should list the drive with a 12Gb/s link speed and show the 6TB capacity.
