2.5 inch SAS hard drive in black metal caddy tray

IBM

IBM 00AK374 00NC603 00Y5909 600GB 15K 12Gb/s 2.5" SAS internal hard drive

SKU CH-MC66-1PAEB

A 600 GB 15000 RPM SAS hard drive with a 12 Gb/s interface and included caddy

  • 600 GB capacity stores large datasets
  • 15 000 RPM spindle delivers fast data access
  • 12 Gb/s SAS interface enables high-throughput transfers
  • 5 inch form factor fits dense server bays
  • Includes IBM system caddy for quick installation

Enterprise 15 000 RPM SAS drive

This IBM 2.5 inch SAS hard drive spins at 15 000 RPM and delivers 600 GB of capacity for transaction-heavy server workloads. It ships new with an IBM system caddy for direct installation in compatible hot-swap bays.

12 Gb/s SAS interface requirement

The drive communicates over a 12 Gb/s SAS link, so the host controller or backplane must support that signalling rate to realise full throughput. Systems limited to 6 Gb/s SAS will operate the drive at the lower speed.

Thermal and power profile

At 1.0 pound the unit adds minimal mass to a dense array, and its 15 000 RPM spindle demands adequate chassis airflow to maintain reliable operating temperatures. Power draw follows typical enterprise 2.5 inch SAS specifications under normal access patterns.

  • 15 000 RPM spindle delivers fast data access

Questions about this item

How does the 15000 RPM speed affect performance in a server?

The 15000 RPM spindle reduces rotational latency, delivering faster random read and write response times for transaction-heavy workloads.

What does the 12Gb/s SAS interface limit in practice?

The 12Gb/s SAS interface caps the maximum sustained transfer rate at 12Gb/s, though actual throughput depends on the controller and system configuration.

Will the included caddy fit a standard 2.5-inch drive bay?

Yes, the drive ships with an IBM system caddy designed for standard 2.5-inch hot-swap bays in compatible servers.
