DELL ST3600002SS 600GB 10000RPM SAS 3.5" internal hard drive lot of 10

Ten-drive SAS array kit

This lot contains ten Dell EqualLogic ST3600002SS drives, each offering 600GB of capacity in a 3.5-inch form factor. They are supplied new and include the EqualLogic caddy trays required for hot-swap bays. The drives spin at 10000RPM and present a 16MB buffer. The package is aimed at administrators expanding or refreshing a SAS-based storage array.

SAS 6Gb/s bus ceiling

The 6Gb/s SAS interface sets a hard throughput ceiling that cannot be exceeded by any single drive in this lot. In a multi-drive enclosure the shared backplane bandwidth becomes the limiting factor once several spindles are active together. Latency is bounded by the 10000RPM rotational speed and the 16MB cache. No firmware feature or controller setting can push the physical link past its 6Gb/s rating.

600GB per spindle decision

Each drive delivers exactly 600GB, so total raw capacity scales in 600GB increments across the ten units. If the target array requires larger individual volumes or a different capacity granularity, these spindles will not match the layout. Buyers needing higher per-drive density or a different interface must select another part.
