Dell Enterprise 600GB 15K SAS Drive

This Dell Enterprise ST3600057SS is a 600GB 3.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM with a 16MB cache. It uses a SAS interface and is supplied in new condition. The unit is designed for server and storage array environments.

Suits SAS Servers Not Home PCs

This drive suits administrators expanding Dell EqualLogic arrays or other enterprise systems that accept 3.5-inch SAS drives at 6Gb/s. It is not for desktop PCs or consumer enclosures that lack a SAS controller or backplane. Builders needing larger capacities or different form factors should consider other models.

6Gb/s SAS Interface Decides Fit

The single specification that decides fit is the 6Gb/s SAS interface. Your server or array must provide a compatible SAS port and 3.5-inch bay; without that connection the drive cannot be used.

  • 15000 RPM spindle speed reduces data access latency

Questions about this item

Will the 3.5" SAS drive fit in a standard 3.5" server bay or backplane?

Yes. The drive uses the standard 3.5-inch form factor and a SAS interface, so it mounts directly into any 3.5" hot-swap tray or fixed bay that accepts SAS connectors.

What is the common mistake when installing this 15000 RPM SAS drive into a Dell EqualLogic array?

Inserting the drive into a bay whose backplane or controller does not support 6Gb/s SAS signalling; the drive will not be recognised at full speed.

When should the 16 MB cache 600GB drive be replaced in a RAID set?

Replace it when SMART attributes show reallocated sectors or when the RAID controller flags a predictive failure alert during routine patrol reads.
