Dell Constellation 500 GB SAS drive

This Dell Constellation R734K drive delivers 500 GB of storage on a 2.5 inch SAS 6 Gb/s interface spinning at 7200 RPM with a 16 MB buffer. It ships new with an R-series caddy for direct installation in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers and storage arrays. The SAS 2.0 signalling provides the data-integrity features required for continuous enterprise workloads.

Suited for server bays needing SAS

This drive fits administrators who need a 2.5 inch SAS hard drive for a Dell server chassis that accepts the R-series tray. It is not suited for systems that lack a SAS backplane or the correct caddy mounting points. Buyers who want a larger capacity or a solid-state alternative should look at other models.

6 Gb/s SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 6 Gb/s SAS interface combined with the 2.5 inch form factor and included R-series caddy. Verify that your server or enclosure supports this exact interface and tray type before purchase.
