Capacity and interface

This is a new Dell ST3146356SS 3.5 inch internal hard drive with a 146GB capacity and a SAS 3Gb/s interface. The drive spins at 15000RPM and includes a 16MB cache buffer for enterprise workloads.

Who this suits

The drive suits administrators who need 15000RPM performance on a 3Gb/s SAS backplane for transactional databases or high-throughput logging. Buyers who need larger capacities for bulk archives or who require a faster SAS link should look elsewhere.

Deciding specification

The single specification that decides fit is the 3Gb/s SAS interface combined with 15000RPM rotation. Verify that your controller and backplane support this exact link speed and form factor before purchase.

Questions about this item

What does 15000RPM mean for real-world access speed?

The 15000RPM spindle reduces rotational latency so random read and write requests reach data quicker than on slower enterprise drives.

What does the SAS 3Gb/s interface limit in practice?

The SAS 3Gb/s link caps maximum throughput at 3Gb/s per port, so sustained transfers cannot exceed that bandwidth even if the drive mechanics are faster.

Will this 3.5-inch SAS drive fit my server bay?

The drive uses a standard 3.5-inch form factor with SAS connectors, so it mounts in any 3.5-inch hot-swap or fixed bay wired for SAS.
