DELL ST600MP0005 600GB 15K RPM SAS 2.5" 128MB internal hard drive

SKU CH-E5F2-X0MKB MPN ST600MP0005

A 600 GB enterprise hard drive spinning at 15,000 RPM with a 128 MB cache and SAS interface in a 2.5 inch form factor

  • 15000 RPM spindle accelerates random I/O for transaction-heavy workloads
  • 600 GB capacity stores enterprise datasets in a single 2.5 inch bay
  • 128 MB cache buffers bursts to sustain throughput under load
  • SAS interface delivers 6 Gb/s bandwidth for dual-port redundancy
  • Dell enterprise qualification ensures firmware compatibility with PowerEdge servers

Dell Enterprise 600GB 15K SAS Drive

This 2.5-inch enterprise hard drive delivers 600GB of storage with a 15000RPM spindle speed and a 128MB cache. It connects via a 6Gb/s SAS interface and carries the Dell part numbers ST600MP0005 and V5300 0V5300. The unit is supplied new for installation in compatible servers or arrays.

Suits high-transaction server workloads

The 15K RPM rotational speed and SAS interface suit databases and transaction-heavy applications that demand low latency and consistent throughput. It is not for buyers who need larger capacity in a single bay or who require a different physical interface for their controller.

15000RPM spindle speed

The 15000RPM rotation speed is the specification that determines whether this drive meets the performance profile for latency-sensitive enterprise workloads. Verify that your backplane and controller support 2.5-inch SAS drives before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5" SAS drive in a server bay and which step is often missed?

Slide the drive into a 2.5" SAS hot-swap tray until the connector seats firmly, then secure the tray latch; the step often missed is fully engaging the latch so the SAS signal pins make reliable contact at 6Gb/s.

What maintenance or replacement will the 15000RPM drive need later?

The 15000RPM spindle and bearings are the primary wear items; plan to replace the drive after its rated service life or if SMART reallocated-sector counts rise, as no user-serviceable parts exist inside the sealed enclosure.

What limit appears first under sustained write loads on this 600GB SAS drive?

The 15000RPM mechanical throughput ceiling is reached before the 128MB cache can absorb bursts, so sustained sequential writes settle at the physical media transfer rate rather than the 6Gb/s interface maximum.
