Product identity

The Dell ST9600205SS is a 600GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 10000RPM with a 6Gb/s SAS interface and 64MB cache. It ships as a lot of ten drives, each supplied with an R Series caddy tray for direct installation into compatible bays.

Who this suits

This drive fits servers and storage arrays that accept 2.5-inch SAS drives and can make use of 10K spindle speed for transactional workloads. Buyers who need a single unit, a different capacity, or a non-SAS interface should look elsewhere.

Deciding specification

The 6Gb/s SAS interface is the single factor that determines whether this drive will work in your system; confirm the controller and backplane support this exact interface before ordering.

Questions about this item

What does the 10000 RPM speed deliver in a live server?

The 10000 RPM spindle reduces rotational latency so random read and write requests complete faster than on slower drives, which helps database and virtualisation workloads that issue many small I/O operations.

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

The 6 Gb/s SAS link sets the maximum bus transfer rate at 6 Gb/s; actual sustained throughput depends on the drive's internal media speed and the controller's queue depth.

What does the drive need to fit in a Dell PowerEdge bay?

The 2.5 inch form factor plus the included R Series caddy lets the drive slide directly into compatible Dell 2.5 inch hot-swap bays without extra brackets.
