Dell R734K 500GB SAS Drive

The Dell R734K is a 500GB 2.5in internal hard drive with a 7.2K RPM spindle and a 16MB buffer. It connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface using the ST9500430SS mechanism. The drive is supplied new and suited for server or storage array bays that accept 2.5in SAS devices.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This drive fits administrators replacing a failed 500GB SAS unit or expanding an existing SAS backplane with matching spindle speed and capacity. It is not for buyers who need a different interface, a higher rotational speed, a larger cache or a capacity above 500GB. Systems limited to 5.25in bays or non-SAS controllers cannot use this model.

The specification that decides fit

The 6Gb/s SAS interface is the single specification that determines whether this drive will work in your enclosure. Verify that your backplane or controller supports SAS at this signalling rate before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the drive ship with a mounting bracket, cables or adapter?

The unit is supplied as the bare 2.5in SAS drive; brackets, cables and adapters are not included and must be sourced separately.

How do I choose between the 500GB 7.2K 6G SAS model and other capacities or speeds?

Select the 500GB 7200RPM 6Gb/s SAS version when you need that exact capacity and spindle speed; other capacities or rotational speeds are different part numbers.

What does the 7.2K 6G rating deliver in a live server or array?

The 7200RPM spindle and 6Gb/s SAS link provide 500GB of sequential throughput suitable for near-line storage tiers and RAID arrays.
