2 TB SAS drive for servers

This 2 TB internal hard drive uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and spins at 7200 RPM. It is built for Dell PowerEdge servers such as the M630 and fits 2.5" hot-swap bays. The drive is new and shipped as a bare unit without retail packaging.

Capacity and headroom

Two terabytes provide room for operating-system images, logs and moderate data sets on near-line storage tiers. At 7200 RPM the drive handles sequential workloads well but will saturate before high-transaction databases or write-intensive caches. The 12Gb/s SAS link removes the interface bottleneck so the spindle speed remains the limiting factor.

Build integration

The 2.5" form factor slides directly into compatible hot-swap trays without adapters or cables. Hot-plug support lets you add or replace the drive while the server runs, keeping uptime intact. A SAS backplane or HBA capable of 12Gb/s is required to use the full interface speed; older 6Gb/s controllers will work at reduced throughput.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5" SAS 12Gb/s drive work in my older server that only has 6Gb/s SAS backplanes?

The drive uses a 12Gb/s SAS interface and will negotiate down to 6Gb/s on older backplanes, so it will function at the slower link speed.

How can I verify the 7200 RPM drive is performing correctly after installation?

Check the drive's reported spindle speed and interface link rate in the server's RAID controller BIOS or management utility to confirm 7200 RPM and 12Gb/s SAS operation.

Does the bare drive include a caddy or mounting bracket for the PowerEdge M630?

The drive is supplied as a bare unit without a caddy; a compatible Dell 2.5" hot-swap carrier must be purchased separately for installation in the PowerEdge M630.
