Enterprise storage drive for Dell PowerEdge servers

This new 6 TB 3.5 inch SAS hard drive operates at 7200 RPM with a 12 Gbps interface and 512e formatting. It is built for Dell PowerEdge towers and rack servers including the T20, T100, T105, T110 Gen I and II, T300, T310, T320, T330, T410, T420, T430, T440, T605, T610, T620, T630, T640 and T710. The drive supports hot-swap installation in compatible bays.

12 Gbps SAS interface determines controller

The drive connects through a 12 Gbps SAS port and requires a controller or backplane that negotiates at that speed. Older 6 Gbps SAS controllers will limit throughput and some may not recognise the drive at all. Verify the server’s storage controller specification before purchase.

Nearline 7200 RPM design sustains sequential

The 7200 RPM spindle and nearline firmware are tuned for continuous read and write streams rather than burst random I/O. Under sustained load the drive maintains steady transfer rates appropriate for bulk storage, backup targets and archival workloads in the supported PowerEdge platforms.

Questions about this item

What does 7200RPM mean for everyday server workloads?

The 7200RPM spindle speed gives consistent throughput for nearline storage tasks such as backups, archives and bulk data on Dell PowerEdge servers.

How does the SAS 12Gbps interface affect real-world transfer rates?

The SAS 12Gbps link supports up to 12Gbps signalling; actual throughput depends on the controller, backplane and drive firmware in the Dell server.

Will this 3.5in drive fit in a Dell PowerEdge T620 hot-swap bay?

Yes, the 3.5in form factor matches the hot-swap trays used in the T620 and the other listed PowerEdge models.
