146 GB 15000 RPM SAS server drive

This new Dell x162k is a 2.5 inch internal hard drive with a 6Gb/s SAS interface, 146 GB capacity and a 15000 RPM spindle speed. It includes a 16 MB cache and is built for server workloads. The drive carries RoHS environmental certification and is supplied in OEM packaging that may vary.

Suits Dell PowerEdge and PowerVault arrays

The drive is validated for Dell PowerEdge servers including the R410, T410, R610, T610, R710, T710, M600, M605, M610, M710, M805 and M905. It also fits PowerVault storage arrays such as the MD3200, MD3200i, MD3600i, MD3600f, M1000e and MD1120. Systems that require a different interface or a larger capacity will not be compatible with this specific part.

6Gb/s SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the correct part is the 6Gb/s SAS interface. Only controllers and backplanes that support this exact standard can communicate with the drive. Verify the host system documentation for SAS 6Gb/s support before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the x162k need a 6Gb/s SAS backplane or controller to operate?

The drive uses a 6Gb/s SAS interface; it requires a compatible SAS controller or backplane that supports this speed.

Will the 15000 RPM x162k work in a Dell PowerEdge R610 with other SAS drives?

The x162k is listed as compatible with the R610 and uses the same 6Gb/s SAS interface as other drives qualified for that server.

How can I confirm the 146 GB x162k is recognised at full speed after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or OS utility to verify the drive negotiates a 6Gb/s SAS link and reports 146 GB capacity.
