900 GB 10 000 RPM SAS drive

This 2.5 in SAS hard drive delivers 900 GB of storage at 10 000 RPM with a 12 Gb/s interface. It is built for Dell PowerEdge servers and EqualLogic arrays that require high-speed enterprise storage. The drive ships new in retail or OEM packaging.

Suits 12 Gb/s SAS bays only

The drive fits 2.5 in bays that support 12 Gb/s SAS signalling and the Dell carrier format. It is not for systems limited to slower SAS speeds or 3.5 in drive cages. Buyers needing larger capacities or different form factors should consider other models.

12 Gb/s SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 12 Gb/s SAS interface. Controllers and backplanes must support this exact speed and protocol for the drive to operate. Verify the host system accepts 12 Gb/s SAS before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the 2.5in SAS drive arrive with a mounting bracket or caddy, or must I supply my own?

The drive ships as a bare unit; any 2.5in SAS tray or bracket required for your server or array must be purchased separately.

The listing shows both F4VMK and 0F4VMK part numbers — which one should I order?

Both part numbers refer to the same ST900MM0168 model with 900GB capacity and 12Gb/s SAS interface; either code will deliver the identical drive.

How does the 10000 RPM spindle speed affect latency in a 12Gb/s SAS environment?

The 10000 RPM rotation yields lower average rotational latency than slower drives, helping sustain higher random IOPS on the 12Gb/s SAS link.
