Enterprise Storage Drive

The HGST HUC101890CSS200 is a 900GB 2.5 inch SAS hard drive spinning at 10000 RPM with a 12Gb/s interface. It is built for servers and storage arrays that demand consistent throughput and low latency. The bare drive packaging suits system integrators and IT departments deploying replacement or expansion units in compatible bays.

Workload Fit

This drive suits environments needing high IOPS from a 10K spindle such as database logs, transactional workloads and virtualisation host storage. Buyers who need larger capacity per bay or the lower latency of solid-state media should look at alternative technologies. Systems without a SAS backplane or HBA cannot use this drive.

Deciding Specification

The SAS 12Gb/s interface determines whether this drive fits your infrastructure. It requires a controller or backplane that supports 12Gb/s SAS signalling for full performance. Verify your server or enclosure documentation for SAS compatibility before purchase.

Questions about this item

What throughput will the 12Gb/s SAS link actually deliver in a live server?

The SAS 12Gb/s interface supports up to 12Gb/s transfer rate; real-world throughput depends on the controller, cable quality and system load.

Does the SAS 12Gb/s connection limit speed if I plug it into a 6Gb/s backplane?

Yes, the drive will negotiate down to 6Gb/s on a 6Gb/s backplane, capping the maximum transfer rate at that lower speed.

Will the 2.5" bare drive fit directly into a standard 3.5" drive bay?

No, the 2.5" form factor requires a 2.5" bay or a 3.5" adapter bracket; it cannot mount directly in a 3.5" bay.
