DELL ST6000NM0034 6TB 7200RPM 12Gbps SAS 3.5in internal hard drive for T420 T430 T440 T605 T610

SKU CH-EB0R-CYA3N

A 6 TB 7200 RPM SAS hard drive with 12 Gbps interface for Dell PowerEdge servers

  • 6 TB capacity stores large datasets
  • 7200 RPM spindle delivers fast sequential throughput
  • 12 Gbps SAS interface enables high-speed data transfer
  • 512e sector format ensures broad OS compatibility
  • Hot-swap 3.5-inch form factor simplifies server maintenance

Capacity and interface

This is a 6TB 3.5in internal hard drive with a 12Gbps SAS interface spinning at 7200RPM. It uses a 512e sector format and supports hot-swap installation in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers.

Suited for nearline storage; not for high IOPS

The drive fits Dell T20 T100 T105 T110 T300 T310 T320 T330 T410 T420 T430 T440 T605 T610 T620 T630 T640 T710 servers. Builders who need lower latency or higher random IOPS should look at solid-state alternatives.

Sustained load behaviour

At 7200RPM the spindle delivers steady sequential throughput for bulk data ingest and archival workloads. The 12Gbps SAS link maintains bandwidth during extended writes while the nearline firmware manages thermal throttling to keep performance consistent.

Questions about this item

Does my Dell server need a 12Gbps SAS backplane or controller to run this ST6000NM0034 at full speed?

Yes, the drive uses a 12Gbps SAS interface, so a compatible 12Gbps SAS HBA, RAID card or backplane is required to achieve the rated throughput.

Will this 6TB 7200RPM SAS drive work in a Dell T410 that currently uses 6Gbps SAS drives?

The drive is backward compatible with 6Gbps SAS controllers found in the T410, though it will operate at the lower 6Gbps link speed.

How can I confirm the ST6000NM0034 is recognised and healthy after installation?

Check the server BIOS or RAID utility during POST — the drive should appear as ST6000NM0034 with 6TB capacity and show a healthy SMART status.
