6TB 7200RPM SATA drive

This Dell enterprise hard drive offers 6000GB of storage in a 3.5in form factor. It spins at 7200RPM with a 128MB buffer and connects via SATA 6Gb/s. The package includes a compatible caddy tray for direct installation.

Suited for PowerEdge server bays

The drive fits the listed PowerEdge models including R230, R330, R430, R530, R630, R730, R730xd, R930, T330, T430, T530, T630, R510, R610, R710 and 3RFPT. Builders using other chassis or needing a different interface should look at something else.

Check bay and controller compatibility

Verify that your server has an available 3.5in drive bay and a SATA 6Gb/s controller. Confirm the included caddy matches your specific PowerEdge model before ordering. The drive weighs 2.0 pound.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.5" SATA 6Gb/s drive need a specific backplane or tray to fit in a PowerEdge R730?

The package includes a PowerEdge caddy/tray, so the drive slides directly into the R730 hot-swap bay without extra hardware.

Will the 7200RPM spindle speed cause any issue when mixed with older 510-series drives on the same SATA controller?

The 6Gb/s SATA interface is backward compatible, so the 7200RPM unit will negotiate the link speed automatically alongside 510-series drives.

How can I confirm the 128MB cache is active after installing the drive in a T630?

Check the drive properties in the RAID controller BIOS or OS disk utility; the reported cache size should show 128MB.
