2TB SAS 6Gb/s 3.5" drive

The Dell 342-0898 is a 2TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive that spins at 7200 RPM and connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface. It is supplied in retail packaging and carries a 30-day warranty. The drive is built for server environments where sustained throughput and hot-plug capability matter.

Server storage expansion

This drive suits administrators adding near-line capacity to compatible Dell PowerEdge servers or MD PowerVault arrays. It is not suited for desktop PCs or laptops that lack a SAS controller and backplane, nor for workloads that demand solid-state latency or higher spindle speeds.

SAS 6Gb/s interface

The single specification that decides fitment is the SAS 6Gb/s interface; the host system must provide a matching SAS controller and hot-plug bay. Without that connection the drive cannot communicate or be swapped while the server runs.

Questions about this item

What does the 7200 RPM spindle speed mean for server workloads?

The 7200 RPM spindle speed delivers fast disk access for server workloads, reducing latency when reading or writing data on the 2 TB Near Line SAS drive.

What does the SAS 6Gb/s interface cap in practice?

The SAS 6Gb/s interface caps the maximum theoretical transfer rate at 6 gigabits per second, which limits sustained throughput to the drive's mechanical performance within that bandwidth.

What does the 3.5 inch form factor need to fit in a Dell PowerEdge server?

The 3.5 inch form factor requires a standard 3.5 inch hot-plug drive bay in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers or MD PowerVault arrays for proper installation.
