12 TB SAS 7.2K Hard Drive

This 12 TB SAS hard drive operates at 7.2K RPM with a 12 Gb/s interface and a 3.5-inch form factor. It is built for Dell systems that require high-capacity nearline storage. The bare drive ships without a tray and carries Dell part number 400-AXNV.

Servers and arrays needing 12 Gb/s SAS

This drive suits servers and storage arrays that accept 3.5-inch SAS drives at 12 Gb/s and need 12 TB of capacity. It is not for systems that only support 2.5-inch bays, nor for platforms that require a different interface or a pre-installed mounting tray.

12 Gb/s SAS interface

The single specification that decides fit is the 12 Gb/s SAS interface combined with the 3.5-inch form factor. Controllers and backplanes must support this exact interface and physical size for the drive to function.

Questions about this item

Will the 3.5" form factor fit my server bay?

The drive uses a standard 3.5" form factor and mounts in any compatible SAS hot-swap bay or fixed cage that accepts 3.5" SAS drives.

How do I install the SAS drive correctly?

Align the SAS connector with the backplane, slide the carrier in until the latch clicks, and ensure the release lever is fully seated to avoid intermittent detection.

When should I plan to replace this 7200 RPM drive?

Monitor SMART reallocated sector counts and replace the 12TB unit once the annualised failure rate rises or the drive exceeds your defined service-life threshold.
