Enterprise Storage Drive

The Dell 400-AQNT is a 3.84 TB internal solid state drive built for enterprise servers and storage arrays. Its 12Gb/s SAS interface delivers consistent throughput for mixed read and write workloads. The 2.5 inch form factor fits standard hot-plug drive bays in compatible Dell PowerEdge platforms. This drive targets IT teams expanding capacity in existing SAS infrastructure.

Controller and Bay Compatibility

Verify that your server or enclosure supports 12Gb/s SAS backplanes and the specific Dell drive carrier for this part number. The hot-pluggable design requires a compatible backplane to enable drive replacement without system downtime. Confirm the storage controller firmware recognises Dell-qualified drives before installation. Older SAS 6Gb/s backplanes will limit the interface to half the rated bandwidth.

Hot-Plug Carrier Included

The drive ships in a Dell hot-plug carrier that matches the locking mechanism of supported PowerEdge chassis. This carrier allows tool-less insertion and removal while the system remains powered on. No additional mounting brackets, cables or management software licences are bundled with the unit. The carrier ensures proper electrical contact and mechanical alignment in qualified bays.

Questions about this item

Does the 400-AQNT ship with a 2.5" drive tray or must I buy one separately?

The drive is hot-pluggable and fits standard 2.5" SAS bays; a carrier is only needed if your server requires a proprietary tray.

Should I choose the 3.84 TB SAS model or a larger capacity for a write-heavy database?

At 3.84 TB the 400-AQNT balances high capacity with enterprise endurance; add more drives rather than a larger single unit to scale both space and IOPS.

What does the 12Gb/s SAS interface deliver inside a live server?

The 12Gb/s SAS link provides high-throughput, low-latency access for mixed read-write workloads on compatible RAID controllers and backplanes.
