Enterprise SAS drive for 2.5in bays

The Dell ST2000NX0433 is a new 2TB internal hard drive with a 12Gb/s SAS interface and 7200RPM spindle speed. It includes an R Series caddy for direct installation in compatible 2.5in drive bays. A 128MB cache supports sustained throughput in multi-drive arrays.

Suited for SAS servers and arrays

This unit fits servers and storage enclosures that accept 2.5in SAS drives running at 12Gb/s. Systems limited to slower SAS links or smaller form factors cannot use the drive. Buyers needing higher capacity or a different physical size should consider other models.

Interface speed decides compatibility

The 12Gb/s SAS connection is the single specification that determines whether this drive works in a given backplane or controller. Verify that the host supports 12Gb/s SAS before purchase.

Questions about this item

What does the 12 Gb/s SAS link mean for real-world throughput?

The 12 Gb/s SAS interface sets the maximum burst speed between the drive and the controller; sustained transfers are limited by the 7200 RPM platters and 128 MB cache.

Does the 2.5 inch SAS connector fit a standard server backplane?

Yes, the 2.5 inch SAS connector matches common enterprise backplanes and the included R Series caddy secures it in Dell PowerEdge bays.

What clearance does the 2.5 inch form factor with caddy need inside the chassis?

The drive uses a standard 2.5 inch height and the supplied R Series tray adds the mounting rails required for hot-swap bays.
