Dell Enterprise 300 GB 15K SAS Drive

This Dell Enterprise internal hard drive delivers 300 GB capacity at 15000 RPM over a 12 Gb/s SAS interface. It includes a Gen13 PowerEdge caddy for direct installation in compatible 2.5-inch bays. The 128 MB buffer supports sustained throughput for transaction-heavy workloads. Condition is new.

Suits Gen13 PowerEdge Servers

The drive is validated for PowerEdge R330, R430, R530, R630, R730, R730xd, R930, T330, T430, T530 and T630 systems. Buyers needing larger capacities or different form factors should consider other options. It is not intended for platforms that do not accept 2.5-inch SAS drives with a 12 Gb/s link.

12 Gb/s SAS Interface Decides Fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 12 Gb/s SAS interface. Your backplane and controller must support this exact interface speed and protocol for the drive to function correctly.

Questions about this item

Will the 128MB cache need any firmware updates or replacement over time?

The 128MB cache is built into the drive and does not require separate maintenance or replacement.

What limits sustained write performance on the 12Gb/s SAS interface?

The 15000RPM rotational speed and mechanical latency set the practical ceiling for sustained throughput.

How much heat and noise does the 15000RPM 2.5" SAS drive produce in a server running all day?

The 15000RPM spindle generates noticeable heat and audible whine; ensure the GEN13 PowerEdge chassis airflow is unobstructed.
