Dell K9VCF 300GB SAS drive

The Dell K9VCF is a new 300GB 2.5 inch internal hard drive built for enterprise servers and storage arrays. It connects through a SAS 12Gb/s interface and spins at 10000 RPM to handle demanding workloads. The hot-swap tray allows replacement without powering down the chassis.

Who should consider this drive

Administrators needing a 300GB capacity with 12Gb/s SAS bandwidth for 2.5 inch bays will find it a direct fit. It suits rebuilds, capacity expansion or spare stock for compatible Dell platforms. Systems that require a different interface, a larger capacity, or a 3.5 inch form factor cannot use this unit.

The deciding specification

The SAS 12Gb/s interface is the single specification that determines compatibility. The drive only functions in backplanes and controllers that support 12Gb/s SAS signalling. Verify the host system accepts this interface before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much heat and noise does the 10000 RPM SAS drive produce during continuous operation?

The 2.5-inch 10000 RPM hard drive generates typical enterprise-level heat and acoustic output for its spindle speed; ensure your chassis airflow matches Dell's original thermal design for this form factor.

What controller or backplane must I already have for the 12Gb/s SAS interface to work?

You need a SAS HBA, RAID card or server backplane that supports 12Gb/s SAS.

Will this hot-swap 2.5-inch drive fit and function in my older 6Gb/s SAS enclosure?

The drive is compatible with 6Gb/s SAS backplanes and will operate at the lower link speed while retaining hot-swap capability.
