Dell 2 TB SAS Near-Line Drive

This 3.5-inch internal hard drive provides 2 TB of storage on a 12 Gb/s SAS interface. It spins at 7200 rpm and is built for Dell PowerEdge servers and PowerVault arrays. The near-line SAS design targets bulk capacity workloads in compatible Dell systems.

Compatibility and Use Cases

The drive fits listed PowerEdge rack and tower models from the R210 through R730XD and T110 through T710 families. It also works with PowerVault DL2200, DR4000, DR4100, DX6104, DX6112 and MD1 arrays. Buyers needing a different interface, a higher spindle speed or a 2.5-inch form factor should look elsewhere.
