DELL St300mp0005 300 GB 15K 12G SAS 2.5" internal hard drive

SKU CH-RX01-4NJHG MPN St300mp0005

A 300 GB 15 000 RPM SAS drive in a 2.5 inch form factor with a 12 Gb/s interface, supplied new with a tray

  • 300 GB capacity stores critical datasets
  • 15 000 RPM spindle delivers rapid data access
  • 12 G SAS interface supports high-throughput workloads
  • 5 inch form factor fits dense server bays
  • New condition ensures full manufacturer reliability

Capacity and interface

The DELL St300mp0005 is a 300 GB internal hard drive with a 12G SAS interface and a 2.5 inch form factor. It spins at 15000 rpm for fast data access in enterprise environments. The unit ships with a tray for direct installation into compatible bays.

Upgrade path

This drive replaces lower-capacity or slower SAS drives in servers and storage arrays that support the 12G interface. The jump is worthwhile when workloads demand higher throughput and the 15000 rpm spindle speed reduces latency for transactional databases. Systems limited to 6G SAS will not realise the full bandwidth benefit.

Build integration

The 2.5 inch SAS form factor fits hot-swap bays and backplanes designed for small-form-factor enterprise drives. A 12G SAS controller or backplane is required to achieve the rated interface speed. The included tray secures the drive in Dell PowerEdge and compatible OEM chassis without additional mounting hardware.

  • 15 000 RPM spindle delivers rapid data access
  • 12 G SAS interface supports high-throughput workloads

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5-inch tray fit a standard SFF drive bay?

The drive ships with a Dell 2.5-inch tray that matches standard SFF hot-swap bays, so it slides directly into the carrier without an adapter.

How do I connect the 12 Gb SAS interface to the backplane?

Insert the drive into the bay until the SAS edge connector seats fully on the backplane port, then tighten the tray retention screw; the step often missed is not pushing far enough for the latch to engage.

When should I plan to replace a 15 000 rpm drive in a RAID array?

Enterprise 15 000 rpm SAS drives typically reach their rated workload limit after five years of continuous operation, so schedule a proactive swap around that mark.
