450 GB 15K RPM SAS Hard Drive

This Dell COMPELLENT ST3450857SS is a 450 GB internal hard drive that spins at 15000 RPM and connects through a 3.5 inch SAS 6Gb/s interface. It includes a 16 MB cache and ships with a COMPELLENT caddy for direct installation in compatible bays. The drive is supplied new and weighs 2.0 pound.

Suited for arrays that need fast 450 GB SAS spindles

The 15000 RPM speed and SAS interface make this drive a fit for enterprise storage pools or COMPELLENT systems that require 3.5 inch hot-plug trays. Buyers who need a different capacity or a non-SAS interface should look elsewhere. The 90 day warranty covers the initial deployment period.

SAS 6Gb/s interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the 3.5 inch SAS 6Gb/s interface; the host backplane or controller must support this exact connection. Verify that your chassis accepts the supplied COMPELLENT caddy before ordering.
