Enterprise server drive

The Seagate Savvio 10K.5 ST9600205SS is a 600 GB 2.5 inch internal hard drive built for enterprise environments. It spins at 10000 RPM with a 64 MB cache and connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface. The 15 mm z-height fits standard server drive bays.

Mission-critical workload fit

This drive suits administrators running mission-critical servers or external storage arrays that require sustained 10000 RPM throughput and SAS connectivity. It is not appropriate for systems limited to the 10 mm form factor or for workloads needing solid-state latency.

SAS 6Gb/s interface requirement

The single specification that decides compatibility is the SAS 6Gb/s interface; the host backplane or controller must support this signalling standard for the drive to function.

Questions about this item

What does the SAS 6Gb/s interface cap at in practice?

The SAS 6Gb/s link tops out at 600 MB/s theoretical bandwidth; real-world throughput depends on the controller and workload.

What physical space does the 2.5" 15 mm drive need to fit?

The drive measures 100.45 mm long, 70.10 mm wide and 15 mm high, so the bay must accept a 15 mm z-height 2.5" form factor.

How is the bare drive installed and what step is often missed?

Mount the bare drive in a 2.5" tray or caddy, connect the SAS data and power cables, then configure the drive in the RAID or HBA BIOS before the OS sees it.
