Dell FR6W6 1.2TB Enterprise SAS Drive

The Dell FR6W6 is a 1.2TB internal hard drive built for enterprise storage systems. It uses a 2.5 inch form factor and a SAS interface rated at 12Gb/s. The drive spins at 10000 RPM and uses SLC NAND flash memory. It is supplied as a bare drive with hot-swap capability for compatible bays.

Suited for PowerVault NX3240 storage arrays

This drive suits administrators upgrading or repairing Dell PowerVault NX Series NX3240 systems. It fits 2.5 inch hot-swap bays requiring a 12Gb/s SAS connection. Buyers needing a different physical size or a non-SAS interface must select an alternative part. The bare-drive packaging means no mounting accessories are included.

12Gb/s SAS interface determines compatibility

The single specification that decides fit is the 12Gb/s SAS interface standard. The storage controller and backplane must support this exact protocol and speed. A 6Gb/s SAS or any other interface will not work correctly. Verify the system requires a 12Gb/s SAS drive before purchase.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the 12Gb/s SAS interface actually deliver on this drive?

The interface standard is 12Gb/s SAS, but the drive itself is rated at 6Gb/s, so the practical ceiling is 6Gb/s.

Which bay and caddy dimensions match the 2.5" form factor of the FR6W6?

It fits any standard 2.5" SAS hot-swap bay; the bare drive slides directly into the tray used by PowerVault NX3240 systems.

How is the FR6W6 installed in a PowerVault NX3240, and what step is often missed?

Insert the bare drive into the hot-swap carrier until the latch clicks, then seat the carrier in the chassis until the lever locks — the latch click is the step people skip.
