DELL F617N 300GB SAS 15000 RPM 3.5" internal hard drive

300 GB SAS enterprise drive

This 300 GB SAS drive spins at 15000 RPM and uses a 6 Gb/s interface. It is built for enterprise storage arrays and servers that demand consistent throughput. The 3.5 inch form factor fits standard large-form-factor bays in rack or tower systems.

Sustained 15000 RPM operation

The spindle holds 15000 RPM continuously rather than only in short bursts. This keeps random read and write latency low during long database scans or virtualisation workloads. The SAS 6 Gb/s link maintains full duplex bandwidth without throttling under heavy queue depth.

Bare drive installation notes

The unit ships as a bare drive without a carrier or mounting screws. Installers must supply a compatible 3.5 inch tray or caddy for their specific chassis. Verify that the backplane or controller supports SAS 6 Gb/s before fitting the drive.
