1.2TB 10000RPM SAS enterprise drive

The HGST HUC101812CS4200 is a new 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a 1.2TB capacity and a 10000RPM spindle speed. It connects via a 12Gbps SAS interface and includes a 128MB buffer. The bare drive weighs 1.0 pound and carries a one-year manufacturer warranty.

Suits 12Gbps SAS bays needing fast 2.5in storage

This drive suits servers and storage arrays that accept 2.5-inch SAS drives at 12Gbps. The 10000RPM speed supports transactional workloads and mixed read/write patterns. Buyers needing larger capacities or lower power draw should consider other form factors or drive types.

12Gbps SAS interface decides compatibility

The single specification that decides fit is the 12Gbps SAS interface. The system backplane or controller must support this exact interface and the 2.5-inch form factor. Without a matching SAS connector and protocol support, the drive will not function.

Questions about this item

What drive bay and connector does the 2.5" SAS 12Gb/s interface require?

The drive fits a standard 2.5 inch bay and connects to a SAS backplane or controller that supports 12Gb/s signalling.

Which way round does the HUC101812CS4200 go into a hot-swap caddy, and what do installers often miss?

Insert the drive with the label facing up and the SAS connector toward the rear; the common mistake is not seating the connector fully so the drive is not detected.

How long do the 10000RPM bearings and 128MB cache typically last before a replacement is needed?

Enterprise SAS drives at 10000RPM are rated for five years of continuous operation; plan to replace the unit around that interval or if SMART reallocated-sector counts rise.
