Dell 400-ASMP 1.8TB SAS Drive

This Dell 400-ASMP is a 1.8TB internal hard drive built for desktop and server bays that accept a 2.5" SAS connection. It spins at 10000 RPM and supports a 12Gb/s transfer rate for rapid data access. The bare drive ships without a tray and is sold new.

Who this suits and who it does not

It suits administrators expanding Dell arrays or replacing a failed unit in a hot-swap chassis that natively speaks SAS. Builders whose systems lack a SAS controller or backplane cannot install this disk. Buyers who need a larger single volume should look at higher-capacity models.

The spec that decides fit

The 12Gb/s SAS interface is the single specification that determines whether this drive works in your hardware; the host must provide a matching SAS port and backplane support.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 1.8TB 10000 RPM SAS drive or a lower-capacity model?

The 1.8TB capacity gives the most storage per bay; choose it when you need maximum space in a 2.5" slot, otherwise a smaller drive saves cost.

What does the 12Gb/s transfer rate deliver in a live server?

The 12Gb/s SAS link moves data up to that ceiling; real throughput depends on the controller and workload but will not exceed 12Gb/s.

Does the SAS 6Gb/s interface limit the 12Gb/s headline speed?

The drive negotiates at 12Gb/s on a 12Gb/s backplane; on a 6Gb/s backplane it falls back to 6Gb/s, so the interface caps the maximum.
