Drive identity

The Dell R727K is a 73GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM with a SAS 6Gb/s interface. It is supplied in a refurbished condition and includes a tray for direct installation in compatible Dell servers or storage arrays.

Fit and limits

This drive suits environments that require a small-capacity, high-speed SAS spindle for legacy arrays or direct-replacement scenarios. It will not meet the needs of buyers who want more capacity per bay, who require a different interface, or who need a new-unopened unit.

Deciding specification

The SAS 6Gb/s interface is the single specification that determines whether this drive can connect to your backplane or controller; verify that your system supports SAS at this signalling rate before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5" SAS drive with tray fit a standard 2.5" hot-swap bay?

The R727K ships with a Dell tray that matches Dell 2.5" hot-swap carriers; it slides directly into a compatible bay without an adapter.

What is the correct SAS cabling step that is often missed during installation?

Connect the SAS data and power cables to the backplane before seating the drive; the drive must click into the backplane connector for the 6Gb/s link to negotiate.

When should the 15000 RPM drive be replaced in a RAID array?

Replace the drive when SMART reallocated-sector counts rise or the controller logs medium errors, as bearing wear at 15000 RPM accelerates latent defects.
