Enterprise 1.2 TB SAS drive

This Dell 400-BDLR is a 1.2 TB 10K RPM SAS hard drive in a 2.5 inch small form factor. It uses a 12 Gbps SAS interface and 512n sector formatting. The drive is designed for hot-swap bays in Dell PowerEdge servers.

Suited for server storage arrays

IT administrators expanding capacity in compatible Dell PowerEdge systems will find the correct interface and form factor here. Buyers without a SAS backplane or a supported Dell server tray cannot install this drive. Home desktop builders should look elsewhere because the connector and firmware target enterprise RAID controllers.

12 Gbps SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 12 Gbps SAS interface. Your server backplane and RAID controller must support this exact protocol and speed. Without a matching SAS infrastructure the drive will not function.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the 12Gbps SAS interface actually deliver to the 400-BDLR?

The 12Gbps SAS link caps at 1.2GB/s per lane, so the 400-BDLR can sustain up to that rate in a compatible backplane.

What physical space and tray does the 2.5 SFF 400-BDLR require in a Dell PowerEdge server?

It fits a standard 2.5-inch SFF bay and needs the correct Dell hot-swap tray for the specific PowerEdge model.

How is the 400-BDLR installed, and which step is often missed?

Slide the drive into its hot-swap tray, lock the carrier, then insert the assembly into the powered server bay until the latch clicks.
