  • Ensures data integrity through multiple error detection layers
  • Leverages existing SAS infrastructure for improved ROI

400 GB SAS Enterprise SSD

This 2.5 inch solid state drive from Seagate delivers 400 GB of capacity over a 12Gb/s SAS interface. It belongs to the 1200 product series and is built for ultra-fast, consistent performance in enterprise environments. The custom-designed controller helps remove storage bottlenecks and close the gap between processor and data access speeds.

Write-intensive enterprise workloads

The drive suits servers and arrays that demand high reliability and scalability under complex, write-heavy applications. Redundant failover I/O paths protect data availability for critical production systems. It is not for buyers who require a consumer form factor or a non-SAS interface. It is also not for systems that cannot support enterprise-grade power-loss data protection.

12Gb/s SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 12Gb/s SAS connection. Your backplane, controller or server must provide this exact interface to install and operate the drive. Without a matching SAS 12Gb/s link the SSD cannot function.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 400 GB 1200 series SSD draw during sustained 12Gb/s SAS operation?

The drive is built for enterprise workloads with a custom controller that maintains consistent performance under write-intensive use, helping reduce data-access wait times without exceeding typical 2.5" SAS power envelopes.

Does the ST400FM0073 require a 12Gb/s SAS backplane or HBA to function, or will it negotiate down to 6Gb/s?

It ships with a 12Gb/s SAS interface and is designed to leverage existing SAS infrastructures, so it will operate on 6Gb/s controllers while delivering full speed on 12Gb/s links.

Can this 2.5" SAS SSD share a backplane with older 6Gb/s drives without caddy or firmware conflicts?

Yes, the 1200 series uses standard SAS connectors and redundant failover I/O paths, allowing it to coexist with legacy 6Gb/s drives in the same enclosure while maintaining data integrity.
