DELL 400-ALCR 6 TB 3.5" 7200 rpm SAS internal hard drive
A 6 TB internal hard drive spins at 7200 rpm and connects via 12Gb/s SAS for Dell PowerVault MD3400 storage systems
- 6 TB capacity stores large data volumes
- 7200 rpm spindle speed delivers enhanced data transfer
- 12Gb/s SAS interface supports high-throughput workloads
- Hot-swappable 3.5" form factor simplifies drive replacement
- Compatible with Dell PowerVault MD3400 storage systems
6 TB Near Line SAS drive
This new Dell 400-ALCR hard drive adds six terabytes of storage to a compatible Dell PowerVault MD3400 storage system. The 3.5-inch form factor fits standard internal bays and the 12 Gb/s SAS interface provides fast data transfer for near-line workloads. It is built for continuous operation in enterprise storage arrays. The 7200 rpm spindle speed balances capacity and throughput for bulk data retention.
Hot-swappable SAS integration
The drive connects through a 12 Gb/s SAS backplane and supports hot-swap replacement without powering down the enclosure. A SAS host bus adapter or RAID controller with matching port speed is required to utilise the interface. No wireless or additional network hardware is involved. The near-line designation suits workloads that need high capacity with moderate access frequency.
Capacity and workload fit
Six terabytes accommodates large archives, backup sets and surveillance footage in a single spindle. The 7200 rpm mechanism delivers sustained sequential throughput for streaming writes and reads. Random I/O intensive applications such as transactional databases will exceed the mechanical limits of this drive. Buyers needing higher IOPS or lower latency should consider solid-state alternatives.

Questions about this item
What limits the sustained write speed of the 12Gb/s SAS interface on this drive?
The 7200 rpm spindle speed and Near Line SAS design set the practical throughput ceiling during continuous operation.
How much heat and noise does the 3.5" 7200 rpm drive produce in all-day use?
The 7200 rpm mechanism generates typical nearline heat and acoustic levels for a 3.5" SAS drive in a storage chassis.
Which controller or backplane is required for the 12Gb/s SAS connection to work?
A 12Gb/s SAS host bus adapter or a compatible Dell PowerVault MD3400 backplane is needed to run the drive at its rated interface speed.
