146 GB 15 K SAS enterprise drive

This 146 GB SAS hard drive spins at 15 000 RPM and uses a 6 Gb/s interface. The 2.5 inch form factor fits dense server and storage arrays. It is built for workloads that demand low latency and high IOPS in enterprise environments.

Tray attached for hot-swap bays

The drive ships with a carrier tray already mounted so it slides directly into compatible hot-swap chassis. No separate caddy or screws are required during installation. This reduces deployment time when replacing or adding drives in a live array.

4.5 ms average seek time

A 4.5 ms average seek time reflects the 15 000 RPM spindle speed and positions the drive for random-access performance. Buyers who need larger capacity per spindle should consider other models because this unit is fixed at 146 GB.

Questions about this item

Will the 15K RPM spindle require any scheduled maintenance or bearing replacement during its service life?

Enterprise SAS drives like this 15000 RPM unit are sealed at the factory and have no user-serviceable parts, so no routine bearing or spindle maintenance is needed.

What is the first performance limit reached when the 146GB drive runs sustained random I/O at 15000 RPM?

The 4.5 ms average seek time becomes the bottleneck for random workloads long before the 6 Gb/s SAS interface saturates.

How much heat and noise does the 2.5 inch 15K SAS drive produce when operating continuously in a server chassis?

The small 2.5 inch form factor concentrates heat, so the drive runs warmer and louder than slower 3.5 inch models and needs directed airflow in the bay.
