Dell 2.4TB SAS drive for hot-plug bays

This 2.5-inch SAS hard drive delivers 2.4TB of storage with a 10K RPM spindle speed and a 12Gb/s SAS interface. The 512e disk format ensures compatibility with systems requiring 512-byte sector emulation. It is designed as a hot-plug internal drive for compatible Dell servers and storage arrays.

Suits servers needing 10K SAS capacity

This drive fits administrators who need 2.4TB of 10K RPM SAS storage in a hot-plug 2.5-inch form factor. It is not suitable for environments that cannot accommodate a SAS 12Gb/s connection or that require 4Kn native sector format. Buyers using VMware should note the platform does not support 512e drives.

512e sector format decides OS support

The drive uses 512e emulation, which is only supported on Windows Server 2008 R2 or newer and select Linux distributions. Systems limited to legacy operating systems or strict 4Kn requirements cannot use this drive. VMware deployments are explicitly unsupported.

Questions about this item

Does the 2.5" SAS drive fit a standard hot-plug bay?

The drive uses a 2.5 inch form factor built for hot-plug bays that accept SAS 12Gb/s devices.

What is the correct way to seat the drive in a hot-plug tray?

Align the SAS connector with the backplane, push firmly until the latch clicks, then secure the tray screw if the chassis requires it.

When should the 2.4 TB 10K RPM drive be replaced in a RAID array?

Replace it when SMART reports reallocated sectors, the RAID controller flags a predictive failure, or after the rated workload limit is reached.
