HGST 600 GB 15K SAS enterprise drive
This new HGST hard drive delivers 600 GB of storage on a 3.5-inch internal form factor. It spins at 15000 rpm and connects through a 6Gb/s SAS interface for enterprise workloads. The drive is built by Western Digital Corporation under the HGST brand for high-performance server and storage arrays.
Suited for transaction-heavy servers.
The 15000 rpm spindle speed and SAS interface make this drive a fit for databases, virtualisation hosts and other latency-sensitive applications. Buyers who need larger capacities for cold data archiving or who require a different interface for their backplane should look at other drive classes. Desktop PCs without a SAS controller cannot use this drive.
6Gb/s SAS interface dictates controller choice
The single specification that decides compatibility is the 6Gb/s SAS interface; the host system must provide a matching SAS HBA or RAID controller. Without that controller the drive will not communicate with the motherboard. Verify the controller and backplane support before purchase.

Questions about this item
What 3.5" drive bay and SAS backplane does the 0B24502 need to fit into?
The drive uses the standard 3.5" form factor and mounts in any 3.5" internal bay with a 6Gb/s SAS backplane.
How do I connect the 15000 rpm HGST drive to the SAS controller, and what step is often missed?
Insert the drive into the bay, connect the SAS data and power cables to the controller, then verify the drive appears in the RAID BIOS before booting the OS.
When will the 600 GB SAS drive need replacement, and what should I monitor?
Monitor SMART attributes for reallocated sectors and rising temperature; replace the drive when the SMART health status reports a failure threshold.
