Dell 400-ALUO 1 TB 2.5" SAS Drive

This Dell 400-ALUO is a 1 TB internal hard drive with a 2.5 inch form factor. It spins at 7200 RPM and uses a SAS interface rated at 12 Gb/s. The drive is supplied as a bare unit in new condition.

Suited For And Not Suited For

This drive suits servers and storage arrays that accept 2.5 inch hot-pluggable SAS drives. It is not suited for systems limited to 3.5 inch bays or those lacking a SAS backplane and controller. Buyers needing a different capacity or a non-hot-plug form factor should consider other options.

Deciding Specification 12 Gb/s SAS

The interface standard of 12 Gb/s SAS determines compatibility with the host controller and backplane. Verify that the target system supports this exact SAS speed and the 2.5 inch hot-pluggable form factor before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell 400-ALUO arrive as a bare 2.5" drive without caddy or cables?

Yes, the drive ships in bare packaging. A 2.5" SAS tray or cable is not included and must be sourced separately.

Which interface speed should I expect — the 3 Gb/s label or the 12 Gb/s spec?

The manufacturer lists the interface standard as 12 Gb/s SAS, while the earlier spec sheet shows 3 Gb/s. The drive will negotiate the highest speed supported by your controller.

What real-world throughput can I expect from the 7200 RPM spindle in a server?

Sustained transfer rates are governed by the 7200 RPM mechanics; the 12 Gb/s interface provides headroom but does not raise mechanical throughput.
