Server-grade 73 GB 15K SAS drive

This 3.5-inch internal hard drive spins at 15000 RPM and connects through a 3 Gb/s SAS interface with an 8 MB cache. It ships new with a Dell PowerEdge caddy for direct installation in compatible bays.

Suited for legacy PowerEdge arrays

The drive fits Dell PowerEdge 1950, 2900, 2950, 2970, 6850, 6950, 840, 860, R200, R300, R900, R905, SC140, SC145, SC440, T100, T105 and T300 servers. Buyers who need higher capacity, solid-state speed, or a different interface should look at other options.

15000 RPM rotational speed

The 15K spindle delivers the low latency and high IOPS required for transaction-heavy workloads on the supported PowerEdge platforms. If your application demands larger sequential throughput or quieter operation, a slower spindle or SSD would be more appropriate.

Questions about this item

What SAS controller or backplane do I need for the 3Gb/s interface on this 3.5" drive?

A SAS controller or server backplane that supports 3Gb/s SAS is required; the drive uses the standard 3.5" SAS connector and includes a PowerEdge caddy for compatible Dell servers.

Will this 15000RPM SAS drive work in a PowerEdge 2950 that currently uses slower SAS drives?

Yes, it is listed as compatible with the PowerEdge 2950 and will operate at 3Gb/s SAS; the higher 15000RPM speed and 8MB cache may improve random-access performance over slower drives.

How can I verify the drive is recognised and healthy after installing it in a PowerEdge R900?

Check the RAID controller BIOS or Dell OpenManage to confirm the ST373454SS appears at 73GB, 15000RPM, and 3Gb/s link speed with no SMART errors reported.
