Dell 600GB 2.5" SAS 15K Drive

This new Dell 401-AASO hard drive delivers 600GB of storage in a 2.5 inch form factor. It uses a SAS interface with a 12Gb/s transfer rate and spins at 15K RPM for fast data access. The unit includes a hot-swap tray for straightforward installation in compatible bays.

Suits high-speed transactional workloads

The 15K spindle speed and SAS 12Gb/s link suit databases and virtualisation hosts that demand low latency and high IOPS. Builders needing larger capacity or a 3.5 inch form factor should consider other models. Systems without a SAS backplane or controller cannot use this drive.

15K RPM spindle speed

The 15K RPM rotation is the key specification that determines whether this drive meets the performance profile for write-intensive enterprise applications. Lower RPM alternatives will not deliver the same random IOPS or sustained throughput for demanding workloads.

Questions about this item

What real-world throughput can I expect from the 12 Gb/s SAS link?

The 12 Gb/s SAS interface supports up to 12 Gb/s transfer rate; actual throughput depends on the controller and system workload.

Does the SAS 12 Gb/s interface limit performance compared with newer standards?

SAS 12 Gb/s provides 12 Gb/s transfer rate and is widely supported in enterprise controllers and backplanes.

Will the 2.5 inch 15K drive fit in a standard 3.5 inch bay?

The drive is a 2.5 inch form factor with a hot-swap tray; it requires a 2.5 inch bay or a 3.5 inch adapter bracket.
