Dell 2 TB SAS enterprise drive

This Dell enterprise hard drive delivers 2 TB of storage in a 2.5 inch form factor with a 12 Gbps SAS interface. It spins at 7200 RPM and provides 128 MB of cache for consistent throughput in server and storage arrays. The package includes an R Series caddy for direct installation. Condition is new with zero operating hours recorded.

Suits SAS bays needing 2 TB capacity

This drive fits 2.5 inch SAS drive bays that support 12 Gbps operation and require a 7200 RPM spindle speed. It is not for systems that only accept 3.5 inch drives or that cannot address a 12 Gbps SAS connection. Buyers needing a different capacity or interface should consider other models.

12 Gbps SAS interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the 12 Gbps SAS interface on a 2.5 inch form factor. Your backplane or controller must support this exact interface and physical size for the drive to function. Verify the interface requirement before purchase.

Questions about this item

What host interface and connector width does the ST2000NX0273 need to operate?

The drive uses a 2.5-inch SAS 12 Gbps interface, so the system must provide a compatible SAS backplane or controller with the matching connector.

Will the 12 Gbps SAS drive negotiate down to work with a 6 Gbps SAS backplane?

Yes, the SAS 12 Gbps interface is backward compatible and will link at 6 Gbps when connected to an older 6 Gbps SAS controller or expander.

How can I confirm the drive is running at its rated 7200 RPM after installation?

Check the rotational speed reported in the RAID controller BIOS or SMART data; it should show 7200 RPM for this model.
