DELL MBE2147RC 146GB 15000RPM SAS 2.5" internal hard drive

Dell MBE2147RC 146GB SAS Drive

This 2.5 inch SAS hard drive delivers 146GB capacity at 15000RPM with a 16MB cache. It uses a 6Gb/s SAS interface and includes an R Series tray for server bays. The drive is new and built for enterprise environments.

Suits transactional servers needing fast spindle

Buyers who need more storage per bay or who prefer solid-state latency should look elsewhere. Systems without a SAS backplane or controller cannot use this drive. Workloads requiring large sequential throughput may find the capacity limiting.

Handles hot data and log volumes

The 15000RPM spindle and SAS link provide quick access for random I/O. The 146GB capacity fills quickly with modern datasets. The 16MB buffer helps burst writes but does not change sustained limits.
