8TB 7.2K SATA drive for Dell PowerEdge servers

This 8TB 3.5-inch hard drive operates at 7200 RPM over a SATA 6Gb/s interface. It is supplied as a replacement kit designed for direct installation in compatible Dell PowerEdge and Tower servers. The drive is new and intended for enterprise storage workloads.

Suited for Dell 12G 13G 14G server bays

The kit fits Dell PowerEdge 12th, 13th and 14th generation rack and tower models including R220, R320, R420, R520, R620, R720, R720xd, R820, R920, R230, R330, R430, R530, R530xd, R630, R730, R730xd, R830, R930, T20, T320, T420, T620, T40, T140, T340 and T440. Builders needing a different interface or a smaller form factor should look elsewhere.

8TB capacity for bulk server storage

Eight terabytes provides substantial space for databases, virtual machine images and backup archives in a single bay. The 7200 RPM spindle delivers sustained throughput for sequential workloads, while the SATA link caps peak transfer at 6Gb/s. Workloads demanding higher IOPS or lower latency will exceed what this drive can deliver.

Questions about this item

Does my server need a 3.5-inch SATA drive bay and a 6 Gb/s SATA controller for this 8 TB drive to work?

Yes, the drive fits a standard 3.5-inch SATA bay and connects via a SATA 6 Gb/s interface, so the server must provide both.

Will this 7200 RPM SATA drive work in a Dell PowerEdge 12G server that currently uses slower 7.2K drives?

It matches the 7200 RPM speed and SATA interface of existing 7.2K drives, so it will operate alongside them without speed mismatch.

How can I confirm the 8 TB capacity is recognised after installing the drive in a Dell PowerEdge 13G system?

Check the RAID controller BIOS or the operating system disk management utility; both should report the full 8 TB capacity.
