Dell 400-AUUQ 2 TB Near Line SAS drive

This new 3.5-inch internal hard drive offers 2 TB of storage and spins at 7200 rpm. It connects through a 12Gb/s SAS interface and supports hot-swap operation for service without downtime.

Suited for SAS hot-swap bays.

The drive installs in servers or arrays that provide a Near Line SAS connection and hot-swap trays. Buyers whose hardware only accepts other interfaces should consider a different drive.

Deciding spec: 12Gb/s Near Line SAS interface

Compatibility depends on the host having a SAS controller or backplane that runs at 12Gb/s and accepts 3.5-inch hot-swap drives. Without that connection the drive cannot be used.
