Seagate 400GB SAS 12Gb/s Enterprise SSD

The Seagate 1200 SSD ST400FM0073 is a 2.5-inch enterprise solid-state drive with 400GB capacity and a SAS 12Gb/s interface. It uses MLC memory and a custom controller to deliver consistent performance for write-intensive workloads. The drive includes Self-Encrypting Drive technology and power-loss data protection for critical systems.

Suits write-heavy enterprise workloads

This drive targets demanding applications such as online transaction processing and high-performance computing where sustained random write IOPS up to 40000 matter. It fits existing SAS infrastructures and supports redundant failover I/O paths for availability. Buyers needing a different interface protocol or larger capacities must look at other models.

SAS 12Gb/s interface

The 12Gb/s SAS connection determines compatibility with controllers and backplanes in the target server or storage array. Random read performance reaches up to 110000 IOPS while active power draw is 3.71W. Verify that the host system supports this interface and the 2.5-inch 7mm form factor before purchase.

Questions about this item

What is the endurance limit of the MLC NAND in the ST400FM0073 under sustained write workloads?

The drive delivers up to 40,000 4KB random write IOPS, with a custom controller and power-loss protection to maintain data integrity during continuous enterprise use.

What is the maximum operating temperature the ST400FM0073 can sustain before throttling?

The operating range tops out at 60°C; the controller manages thermal conditions within this window to keep performance consistent.

How much power does the ST400FM0073 draw when running at full load all day?

Active power consumption is 3.71W, while idle power is 2.72W, so sustained operation stays under 4W.
