A 600 GB 2.5 inch SAS drive spinning at 15000 RPM for Dell PowerEdge servers

  • High-capacity 600 GB storage for demanding server workloads
  • 15 000 RPM spindle speed delivers low-latency data access
  • SAS 6 Gb/s interface provides reliable enterprise connectivity
  • 5 inch small form factor fits dense server chassis
  • Compatible with a wide range of Dell PowerEdge servers

Dell 600 GB SAS 15K drive

This new 2.5 inch SFF hard drive delivers 600 GB of storage on a SAS 6 Gb/s interface and spins at 15000 RPM. It is built for Dell PowerEdge servers that accept 2.5 inch SAS drives. The 990FD part number matches the original Dell qualification for these platforms.

Suits high-IO server workloads

The 15000 RPM spindle speed targets databases, virtualisation hosts and transaction-heavy applications that benefit from low latency. It does not suit systems that cannot accept a 2.5 inch SAS drive or that require a different capacity point. Buyers who need a larger single drive should look elsewhere.

15000 RPM rotational speed

The 15000 RPM figure is the primary specification that determines whether this drive meets the performance profile of the intended workload. Verify that the server backplane and controller support 2.5 inch SAS 6 Gb/s drives before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What practical throughput does the SAS 6Gb/s interface cap at for this 600GB 15000 RPM drive?

The SAS 6Gb/s link tops out at roughly 600 MB/s, so sustained reads and writes from the 15000 RPM platters will not exceed that ceiling.

Which drive bay and form factor does this 2.5" SFF unit need to mount in a Dell server?

It fits a 2.5-inch small-form-factor hot-plug bay with the standard SAS backplane connector used in the listed PowerEdge models.

How is the drive installed, and what step is often missed when adding it to a RAID array?

Slide the carrier into the bay until the latch clicks, then use the PERC controller BIOS or OpenManage to assign the new disk to a virtual disk; skipping the array initialization leaves the drive offline.
