Dell M020F 500 GB SATA drive

The Dell M020F is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive with a 500 GB capacity and a 7200 RPM spindle speed. It connects through a SATA 3 Gb/s interface and provides a 16 MB cache buffer. The unit ships new and includes an R Series caddy tray for installation in compatible Dell server or workstation bays.

Suited for legacy SATA bays.

This drive fits older servers and workstations that require a 3.5-inch SATA drive with a 3 Gb/s link. It serves well as a direct replacement for a failed drive in a Dell R Series chassis. Buyers who need more storage space or a faster 6 Gb/s SATA interface should look at other models.

R Series caddy simplifies Dell server installs

The bundled R Series caddy tray lets the drive slide directly into supported Dell PowerEdge servers without extra brackets. This saves time during deployment and ensures proper alignment in hot-swap bays. No additional software or mounting hardware is included in the package.

Questions about this item

What SATA port speed does my motherboard need to run this WD5002ABYS at its 3Gb/s interface?

A SATA 3Gb/s (SATA II) port or faster will run the WD5002ABYS at its native 3Gb/s link speed; a 6Gb/s port will simply negotiate down to 3Gb/s.

Will the included R Series caddy fit the 3.5-inch bays in my older Dell PowerEdge R-series server?

Yes, the supplied R Series caddy is designed for Dell PowerEdge R-series 3.5-inch hot-swap bays, so the drive slides straight in.

How can I confirm the 7200 RPM spindle speed and 16 MB cache are active after installation?

Check the drive model WD5002ABYS in BIOS or with a tool like CrystalDiskInfo; it will report 7200 RPM and a 16 MB buffer.
