DELL ST6000NM0034 6TB 7.2K RPM SAS 3.5" internal hard drive NWCCG

SKU CH-N74J-FT4RH

A 6000 GB SAS drive spinning at 7200 RPM with a 128 MB cache, supplied in a lot of ten with server trays

  • 6 TB capacity stores large data sets
  • 7200 RPM spindle speed delivers responsive throughput
  • SAS 6 Gb/s interface connects to compatible servers
  • 128 MB cache buffers frequent read operations
  • Includes caddy for direct fit in listed PowerEdge models

6 TB SAS drive for PowerEdge servers

This lot contains ten Dell-branded ST6000NM0034 drives, each offering 6000 GB of storage with a 7200 RPM spindle speed and a 128 MB cache. They use a 3.5 inch SAS 6 Gb/s interface and ship with PowerEdge caddies for direct installation.

Suits bulk RAID arrays.

The drives are designed for multi-bay PowerEdge servers such as the R710, R720, T610 and T710 where hot-swap trays are standard. Buyers needing only one drive for a workstation or a non-SAS enclosure should look elsewhere because the tray and interface target dense enterprise deployments.

SAS 6 Gb/s interface decides compatibility

Each drive connects through a 3.5 inch SAS 6 Gb/s port, so the host backplane or controller must support that exact signalling rate and connector. Without a compatible SAS HBA or RAID card the drives cannot be used, regardless of capacity or form factor.

Questions about this item

Should I buy the single drive or the lot of 10 units?

The lot contains 10 drives, each 6000GB with 128MB cache, and includes caddies for compatible PowerEdge servers.

How does the 7200RPM speed affect real-world throughput in a server?

At 7200RPM the drive delivers sustained sequential performance suited to bulk storage and nearline workloads in a 3.5" SAS bay.

What does the SAS 6Gb/s interface limit in practice?

The 6Gb/s SAS link caps maximum transfer rate at 6Gb/s and connects directly to supported PowerEdge backplanes.
