Silver 3.5 inch hard drive mounted in black IBM System X hot-swap caddy

IBM

IBM ST2000NM0033 2TB 7200RPM SATA 3.5" internal hard drive with System X caddy

SKU CH-08T1-4K0GX

2 TB SATA drive with 7200 RPM spindle and System X caddy for hot-swap server bays

  • 2 TB capacity stores large datasets
  • 7200 RPM spindle delivers responsive throughput
  • SATA 6 Gbps interface enables fast transfers
  • Hot-swap tray allows drive changes without downtime
  • New condition with one-year manufacturer warranty

Purpose-built storage for System X

This 2 TB 7 200 RPM SATA drive ships inside an IBM System X caddy so it slides straight into hot-swap bays on compatible servers. It targets administrators who need near-line capacity without rewiring trays or hunting part numbers.

Caddy included for tool-free swaps

The supplied tray locks the 3.5 inch mechanism into the chassis with a single lever, letting technicians replace drives while the array stays online. Standard SATA 6 Gbps connectors at the rear mate directly with the backplane, eliminating cable routing inside the enclosure.

Steady 7 200 RPM operation

Spindle speed stays constant under mixed read and write workloads, delivering predictable throughput for bulk archives and backup targets. Power draw follows the SATA specification for 3.5 inch near-line drives, and acoustic output remains at typical enterprise levels during continuous duty.

Questions about this item

What does the SATA 6Gbps interface cap in practice?

The SATA 6Gbps interface caps the drive at 6Gbps maximum transfer rate, with real-world throughput limited by the 7200RPM mechanical speed

What does the drive need to fit in a System X server bay?

The included System X caddy mounts the 3.5in drive into a hot-swap bay, so no separate tray or screws are required

How is the drive installed and what step gets missed?

Slide the caddy-mounted drive into the hot-swap bay until it clicks, then secure the latch; the step often missed is fully engaging the latch to complete the SATA connection
