8 TB SATA server drive

This 8 TB 3.5-inch hard drive spins at 7200 RPM over a SATA 6 Gb/s interface. It is supplied as a replacement kit validated for Dell PowerEdge 14 and 15 generation rack and tower servers.

Suited for capacity-focused arrays

The drive targets administrators who need high-capacity bulk storage in compatible Dell servers. It is not intended for workloads that demand solid-state latency or for systems that lack a 3.5-inch SATA bay.

7200 RPM spindle speed decides fit

The 7200 RPM rotational speed delivers the throughput required for nearline server workloads. If your application needs faster random access or lower power draw, a different drive class will be required.

Questions about this item

How often should the 7200 RPM mechanical drive be replaced in a server running 24/7?

Enterprise drives at this speed are typically rated for five years of continuous operation; plan a proactive swap around that mark or when SMART attributes show reallocated sectors.

What limits sustained write throughput on the SATA 6Gb/s interface?

The 6 Gb/s link caps burst speed, but the 7200 RPM platters and internal media transfer rate set the real-world sustained ceiling during long sequential writes.

How much heat and noise does the 3.5" 8TB drive add to a fully populated chassis?

Expect typical idle power near 7 W and seek power around 10 W, raising chassis temperature modestly; acoustic output is comparable to other 7200 RPM enterprise drives.
