Dell 1.2 TB 10K SAS Enterprise Drive

This 2.5 inch SAS hard drive delivers 1.2 TB of storage with a 10K rotational speed for Dell PowerEdge servers. It uses a 12 Gbps SAS interface and 512n sector formatting. The drive includes FIPS encryption for data security. It is designed for enterprise server environments.

Hot-Swap 2.5 Inch Form Factor Build

The small form factor fits standard 2.5 inch drive bays and supports hot-swap installation for minimal downtime. A tray sticker may not be included with the unit. Retail or OEM packaging varies depending on supply. Silver casing matches typical server chassis aesthetics.

Verify SAS Controller and Tray Compatibility

Confirm your server has a 12 Gbps SAS controller and available 2.5 inch hot-swap bays before ordering. You must specify the correct Dell HDD tray at checkout for proper mounting. This drive is not suitable for standard home PC builds lacking SAS infrastructure.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the 12 Gbps SAS interface cap at in practice?

The 12 Gbps SAS link delivers up to 12 Gbps raw bandwidth; actual sustained throughput depends on the 10K RPM mechanics and the host controller.

Which drive bay and tray does the 2.5 SFF form factor require?

It fits a 2.5-inch SFF bay and must be mounted in a Dell PowerEdge hot-swap tray; the tray sticker may not be included.

How is the 512n sector drive installed, and what step is often missed?

Insert the drive into the correct PowerEdge tray, slide the assembly into the hot-swap bay until it locks, and verify the controller recognises 512-byte native sectors.
