Dell 400-ANYT 8TB Nearline SAS Drive

The Dell 400-ANYT is an 8TB 3.5-inch Nearline SAS hard drive built for servers and storage arrays that need high-capacity bulk storage. It suits IT teams expanding RAID pools, backup targets or archive volumes in Dell PowerEdge and compatible enclosures.

8TB capacity with 12Gb/s SAS headroom

Eight terabytes provide ample space for sequential workloads such as video surveillance, log aggregation or cold data tiering. The 12Gb/s SAS interface and 7200 RPM spindle keep sustained transfers steady, while random I/O and latency remain limited by mechanical physics.

Hot-swap tray replaces fixed-mount SAS drives

The hot-swap tray lets administrators swap failed units without powering down the chassis, cutting downtime compared with fixed-mount drives. The upgrade is worthwhile when maintenance windows are tight or when scaling an existing 12Gb/s SAS backplane beyond its current spindle count.

Questions about this item

Will the 12Gb/s SAS interface on this 400-ANYT drive work with my existing 6Gb/s SAS backplane?

Yes, the SAS 12Gb/s interface is backward compatible with 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s SAS controllers and backplanes, so the drive will operate at the speed your current hardware supports.

How can I verify the 7200 RPM spindle speed and 12Gb/s link are active after installation?

Check the drive’s reported rotational speed and negotiated link rate in your RAID controller BIOS, HBA utility, or OS disk-management tools; they should show 7200 RPM and a 12Gb/s connection.

Does the bare-drive 400-ANYT package include a 3.5" hot-swap tray or mounting screws, or must I source them separately?

The drive ships as a bare unit without a hot-swap tray or screws; you will need to supply a compatible 3.5" SAS hot-swap tray and any required mounting hardware for your chassis.
