900 GB 10K SAS server drive

This 900 GB 2.5" SAS hard drive spins at 10000 rpm and uses a 6Gb/s SAS interface. It is built for IBM System x servers and carries a self-encrypting design for data-at-rest protection. The hot-swap carrier allows replacement without powering down the chassis.

Fits 2.5" hot-swap bays with ServeRAID controllers

The .6" high form factor slides into standard 2.5" SFF hot-swap bays found in compatible IBM System x servers. It connects directly to supported ServeRAID SAS/SATA controllers including the M5015, M5014, M5110, M1115 and M1015. No additional cabling or adapters are required for installation.

SED encryption and hot-swap carrier included

The self-encrypting drive hardware secures stored data without relying on host software. The integrated G2HS hot-swap carrier provides the mechanical latch and connector alignment for tool-less bay insertion. WEEE certification confirms compliance with electronic-waste regulations.
