Questions about this item

How can I confirm the drive spins at 15000 RPM after installation?

The drive should be recognised by the host controller at its full 15000 RPM speed; check the controller BIOS or management utility for the reported rotation rate.

What is included with the ST373453FC and what must be sourced separately?

The drive itself is supplied; a Fibre Channel host bus adapter, cables and an appropriate 3.5" drive bay or enclosure are not included.

Which capacity version of this model should I choose for an enterprise array?

This model is offered in a single 73GB capacity; select it when your array requires that specific size and 15000 RPM performance.
