Dell Y1Y2H 1.2TB SAS drive

The Dell Y1Y2H is a 1.2TB 2.5-inch SAS hard drive spinning at 10000 RPM with a 12Gb/s transfer rate. It is built for enterprise storage arrays and servers that demand high-throughput mechanical storage in a hot-swap tray.

Check SAS controller and bay compatibility

Verify that your system provides a 2.5-inch SAS bay and a controller able to negotiate 12Gb/s speeds. The drive uses a bare hot-swap form factor so the chassis must accept that tray style and supply the correct SAS backplane connections.

Sustained enterprise workload behaviour

At 10000 RPM the drive maintains consistent throughput during long sequential reads and writes typical of database or logging workloads. Mechanical latency remains stable under continuous duty unlike burst-oriented solid-state alternatives.

Questions about this item

Does the drive ship with a caddy or cables, or must they be ordered separately?

The unit is supplied as a bare 2.5" SAS drive only; no caddy, screws or cables are included and must be sourced separately.

Which capacity and speed combination suits a write-heavy database on a 12Gb/s backplane?

The single 1.2TB 10000 RPM model listed is the only option available; it matches the 12Gb/s interface speed quoted for the backplane.

Will the 12Gb/s transfer rate be achieved in a server that only supports 6Gb/s SAS?

The drive negotiates down to 6Gb/s on a 6Gb/s controller, so the 12Gb/s headline figure will not be reached in that environment.
