SKU CH-7VEE-3GE5F

600 GB SAS drive spins at 15000 RPM with 16 MB cache for Dell PowerEdge servers

  • 15000RPM spindle speed accelerates database transactions
  • 600GB capacity stores large datasets on a single drive
  • SAS 6Gb/s interface enables direct server backplane connection
  • 16MB cache smooths burst I/O workloads
  • Compatible with Dell PowerEdge T420 T430 T440 T605 T610

Dell Cheetah 15K.7 SAS drive for PowerEdge servers

This 600GB 15000RPM hard drive uses a 3.5" SAS 6Gb/s interface and a 16MB cache. It is built for Dell PowerEdge T420 T430 T440 T605 T610 and compatible T-series servers. The drive suits administrators who need high spindle speed in a standard 3.5-inch bay.

Thermals noise and power profile

At 15000RPM the spindle generates more heat and acoustic output than slower enterprise drives. The SAS 6Gb/s interface draws typical enterprise power levels during normal read and write operations. System fan curves in supported PowerEdge chassis manage the thermal load.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous I/O the 15000RPM rotational speed maintains consistent throughput for transactional workloads. The 16MB buffer absorbs burst traffic while the SAS link sustains command queuing. The drive is not suited for archival storage where capacity per pound outweighs random-access speed.

Questions about this item

How do I install the ST3600057SS in a Dell PowerEdge T420 and which step is often missed?

Slide the 3.5" SAS drive into the hot-swap bay until the carrier clicks, then verify the controller detects the 6Gb/s link; the step often missed is seating the carrier latch fully so the backplane connector engages.

What maintenance or replacement will the ST3600057SS need after extended use?

The 15000RPM mechanical mechanism and 16MB cache are sealed; no user-serviceable parts exist, so plan to replace the entire 600GB drive once SMART attributes indicate wear or performance drops.

What limit appears first on the ST3600057SS during sustained heavy workloads?

The 6Gb/s SAS interface caps maximum throughput, so sustained sequential transfers will hit that ceiling before the 15000RPM platters or 16MB buffer become the bottleneck.
