Seagate Savvio 10K.5 ST9900805SS 900GB 10000 RPM 64MB SAS 6Gb/s 2.5" laptop hard drive

Enterprise SAS Drive for Mission-Critical Servers

The Seagate Savvio 10K.5 ST9900805SS is a 2.5-inch internal hard drive built for enterprise servers and external storage arrays. It connects via a SAS 6Gb/s interface and spins at 10000 RPM with a 64MB cache. This new bare drive is designed for workloads that demand consistent throughput and low latency in a 15mm height form factor. It is not suitable for desktop PCs or laptops lacking a SAS controller and backplane.

900GB Capacity with 10000 RPM Performance

The 900GB capacity provides substantial space for operating systems, databases and transaction logs in a single spindle. At 10000 RPM the drive delivers an average latency of 3ms, giving quick access to frequently used data. The 64MB cache helps absorb burst writes and read-ahead patterns. Workloads requiring higher IOPS or capacities beyond 900GB will need additional drives or solid-state alternatives.

DoD-Compliant Erasure and One-Year Seller Warranty

Each drive has been erased to the DoD 5220.22-M standard and tested to a minimum 90% health threshold. The manufacturer has ended sale and warranty coverage, so the seller provides a one-year warranty from purchase date. Drives ship unformatted, unpartitioned and unallocated, requiring setup in the host RAID controller or operating system. Cosmetic markings or label variations may be present.
