Dell Savvio 15K.1 73 GB SAS drive

The Dell Savvio 15K.1 XT764 is a 73 GB internal hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM with a 3 Gb/s SAS interface. It uses a 2.5 inch form factor and includes a 16 MB buffer. The unit ships new with an R Series caddy tray for direct installation in compatible bays.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This drive fits servers and storage arrays that accept 2.5 inch SAS drives and benefit from 15000 RPM access speeds. It is not suitable for systems that only accept a different physical connector, for builds needing larger capacity per spindle, or for platforms limited to 3.

The spec that decides fit

The 3 Gb/s SAS interface determines whether the drive can communicate with your controller or backplane; verify that your hardware supports this exact signalling rate before purchase.

  • 73 GB capacity stores critical server data

Questions about this item

How do I install the Dell SAVVIO 15K.1 XT764 into a server bay, and what step is often missed?

Slide the drive into the included R Series caddy, secure the screws, then insert the assembly into a hot-swap SAS backplane until the latch clicks; the step often missed is not fully seating the caddy so the SAS connector engages.

What maintenance or replacement will the ST973451SS need later?

As a mechanical 15000RPM drive, the only predictable replacement is the drive itself once bearing wear or media errors appear; no user-serviceable parts exist inside the sealed enclosure.

What limit appears first when the XT764 runs sustained writes at 15000RPM?

The 3Gb/s SAS interface caps sustained throughput well below the mechanical potential, so the bus becomes the bottleneck before the platters or 16MB cache saturate.
