Dell Cheetah 146 GB SAS drive

The Dell Cheetah 1DKVF is a 146 GB 3.5 inch SAS internal hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM with a 16 MB buffer. It arrives new and includes a PowerEdge server caddy for direct installation. The 6 Gb/s SAS interface connects to compatible Dell PowerEdge servers listed in the specifications.

Suits PowerEdge server maintenance

This drive fits administrators replacing a failed disk in supported PowerEdge models such as the R310, R410, R510, R710, T410 and T610. The 15000 RPM spindle delivers the low latency required for transactional workloads. Buyers needing more capacity or a different interface must look elsewhere.

15000 RPM spindle speed

The 15000 RPM rotational speed is the single specification that determines whether this drive meets the performance profile of the original array. Matching this speed preserves the expected IOPS and latency characteristics of the storage subsystem.

Questions about this item

What transfer rate does the SAS 6Gb/s interface cap at in practice?

The SAS 6Gb/s interface caps at six gigabits per second, which is the maximum link speed the drive can negotiate with a compatible controller.

What physical mounting does the 3.5-inch drive need and what ships with it?

The 3.5-inch form factor fits standard server bays and the unit includes a Dell PowerEdge caddy tray for direct installation.

How is the drive installed and which step is often missed?

Slide the drive into the supplied caddy, secure it with the screws provided, then insert the assembly into the server bay until the latch clicks; the step often missed is fully seating the latch so the SAS connectors engage.
