Enterprise SAS Drive

The Western Digital WD3001BKHG is a 300GB 2.5-inch enterprise hard drive spinning at 10000 RPM with a 32MB cache and SAS 6Gb/s interface. It is built for high-density performance storage in demanding server and storage array environments. The 15mm height and bare-drive packaging suit standard enterprise bays.

Suited for RAID arrays and tiered storage

This drive suits administrators who need ultra-fast SAS storage with dual-port full-duplex connectivity for enterprise workloads. Buyers who require a drive for a desktop PC or laptop without a SAS controller should look elsewhere. The interface demands a compatible SAS backplane or HBA.

SAS 6Gb/s interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the SAS 6Gb/s interface. Only systems equipped with a SAS controller or backplane can communicate with this drive. Verify the host hardware supports SAS before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 15mm height fit my 2.5-inch drive bay?

The drive measures 15mm tall, 69.85mm wide and 100mm long, so it fits standard 2.5-inch bays that accept 15mm drives.

How loud and hot does the 10000 RPM SAS drive get during continuous operation?

It is designed for low power consumption and ultra-cool operation, with RAFF and NoTouch ramp load technology to limit vibration and heat under sustained load.

Do I need a SAS controller or backplane to use this drive?

Yes, the drive uses a SAS 6Gb/s interface with dual-port full-duplex connectivity and requires a compatible SAS HBA, RAID controller or server backplane.
