Dell WXPCX 1.2TB 10K SAS Drive

This new Dell WXPCX is a 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a 1.2TB capacity and a 10,000 RPM spindle speed. It uses a SAS interface operating at 12G and supports hot-plug installation. The drive ships in a tray identified by part number 400-AJPD, making it ready for compatible drive bays.

Suited for Dell PowerEdge servers needing 10K SAS

This drive fits Dell PowerEdge servers and storage arrays that accept 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS drives in a Dell tray. It is not for systems that only accept 3.5-inch drive form factors. It is also not for laptops or workstations lacking a SAS backplane and the required tray mechanism. Buyers needing a different capacity or interface should look at other models.

SAS 12G interface and 10,000 RPM speed

The SAS 12G interface determines controller and backplane compatibility for this drive. The 10,000 RPM rotational speed defines its performance tier for random I/O workloads. Verify that your server generation supports 12G SAS and the specific 400-AJPD tray before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I install the WXPCX drive in a Dell server tray and which step is often missed?

Slide the 2.5 inch drive into the hot-plug tray until the connector seats firmly on the 12G SAS backplane; the step most people miss is locking the tray latch so the drive cannot pull out under vibration.

What maintenance or replacement will the WXPCX need during its service life?

No scheduled maintenance is required; plan to replace the drive once its rated workload or the array controller reports a SMART threshold breach.

What limit appears first when the WXPCX runs sustained write workloads?

The 10000 RPM spindle and 12G SAS link cap sustained throughput, so the mechanical write speed becomes the bottleneck before the interface saturates.
