300GB 15K SAS enterprise drive

This 2.5-inch hard drive spins at 15000 RPM and connects through a SAS 12Gb/s interface. It carries 256MB of cache and is built for enterprise storage workloads such as OLTP, big data analytics and data warehousing. The 300GB capacity fits in a 15mm-high form factor.

SAS 12Gb/s interface limits

The drive requires a host bus adapter or controller that supports the SAS 12Gb/s standard to reach its rated throughput. Average latency is 2.0ms at 15000 RPM. Performance will fall back to the speed of the slowest link in the chain if the controller or backplane only supports a lower SAS generation.

Check bay height and controller compatibility

Verify that your chassis or server accepts a 15mm-high 2.5-inch drive before ordering. Confirm the system has a SAS 12Gb/s controller or HBA with the appropriate cable connectors. Ensure the operating environment can handle the thermal output of a 15000 RPM enterprise spindle.

Questions about this item

Which capacity should I choose among the 300GB, 600GB and 900GB options?

The 300GB model fits smaller enterprise workloads; the 600GB and 900GB drives store more mission-critical data and the 900GB version holds 50% more than any other 15K HDD

What does the 15000 RPM speed mean for actual transaction performance?

15000 RPM combined with 2.0ms average latency accelerates I/O operations and completes more transactions faster even during peak demand

What does the SAS 12Gb/s interface cap in practice?

The SAS 12Gb/s interface supports the drive's 256MB cache and TurboBoost read caching for optimum response times in enterprise storage arrays
