Dell Constellation ES.2 3TB SAS Drive

The Dell ST33000650SS Constellation ES.2 is a 3000GB 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for Dell PowerEdge servers. It spins at 7200RPM with a 64MB buffer and connects via a SAS 6Gb/s interface. The unit ships new and includes a compatible server caddy for direct installation.

Suits PowerEdge R310 through T710 owners

This drive fits the listed PowerEdge models including R310, R320, R410, R415, R420, R510, R515, R520, R710, R720, R720xd, T310, T320, T410, T420, T610, T620 and T710. It is not for buyers who need a different drive bay size or a non-SAS host interface. It is also not for users requiring higher rotational speeds or larger cache amounts than specified.

SAS 6Gb/s interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the 3.5-inch SAS 6Gb/s interface; the server backplane must support this exact connection. Verify the target system appears in the compatible model list before purchase. The included caddy matches the drive bays of those specific PowerEdge generations.

Questions about this item

What sustained throughput limit appears first when the ST33000650SS runs continuously in a PowerEdge server?

The 6 Gb/s SAS interface caps sustained transfer rates before the 7200 RPM platters or 64 MB cache become bottlenecks.

How much extra heat and noise does the 3.5" SAS drive add when running all day in a PowerEdge chassis?

At 7200 RPM the Constellation ES.2 produces typical enterprise-level heat and acoustic output; the included caddy ensures proper airflow inside compatible PowerEdge models.

Which controller or backplane must the system already have for this 6 Gb/s SAS drive to work?

A 6 Gb/s SAS backplane or HBA — present in PowerEdge R310, R320, R410, R415, R420, R510, R515, R520, R610, R620, R710, R720, R720xd, T310, T320, T410, T420, T610, T620, T710 — is required for the ST33000650SS to operate.
