Dell MBA3147RC SAS drive

The Dell MBA3147RC is a 146GB enterprise SAS hard drive spinning at 15000RPM with a 16MB cache. It targets server and workstation builders who need high spindle speed in a 3.5-inch form factor for transactional workloads.

3.5-inch SAS 3Gb/s integration

The drive connects via a 3.5-inch SAS 3Gb/s interface and requires a compatible backplane or HBA with SAS connectors. Its enterprise firmware and zero-hours condition suit fresh array builds rather than desktop upgrades.

Sustained 15000RPM operation

At continuous 15000RPM the drive maintains consistent throughput for random I/O patterns typical of database logs and virtualisation hosts. The 16MB buffer absorbs burst writes while the mechanical spindle delivers steady latency under prolonged load.

  • 15000 RPM for fast data access
  • SAS interface for reliable enterprise connectivity
