Dell V2KWT 1.2TB SAS 10K Drive

The Dell V2KWT is a new 1.2TB internal hard drive with a 2.5-inch form factor. It connects via a SAS interface running at 12Gb/s and spins at 10000 RPM. The unit includes a hot-swap tray for tool-less installation.

Suits servers needing 10K SAS storage

This drive fits systems that accept 2.5-inch SAS drives and require hot-swap capability. It is not suitable for builds limited to 3.5-inch bays or platforms without a SAS controller. Buyers needing a different capacity or interface should consider other options.

12Gb/s SAS interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the 12Gb/s SAS interface. The host system must provide a matching SAS backplane or controller. Without that connection the drive cannot operate.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 10000 RPM SAS 12Gb/s drive draw during all-day operation?

The 2.5" 1.2TB drive is built for 10000 RPM enterprise workloads; its power profile matches Dell's specification for hot-swap SAS drives in this class.

What controller or backplane must I already have for the SAS 12Gb/s interface to work?

You need a SAS host bus adapter or RAID controller with a 12Gb/s SAS port and a 2.5" hot-swap bay that accepts the Dell V2KWT tray.

Will the 10000 RPM SAS drive work in a server that currently runs 6Gb/s SAS drives?

Yes, the SAS 12Gb/s interface negotiates down to 6Gb/s so the 1.2TB drive runs alongside older SAS drives on the same backplane.
