IBM 00NA526 2TB 2.5" SATA drive

This IBM 00NA526 is a 2TB 2.5" internal hard drive built for desktop and server storage bays. It spins at 7200 RPM and connects through a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. The bare drive ships without a tray and carries the original IBM part number 00NA526. Condition is new.

Suits builders adding bulk storage to a 2.5" SATA

The 7.2K spindle speed and 2TB capacity serve users who need high-capacity mechanical storage in a compact form factor. Hot-swap capability allows drive replacement without powering down compatible enclosures. Buyers requiring solid-state speeds or a larger 3.5" form factor should consider other options.

SATA 6.0Gb/s interface decides compatibility

The drive communicates over SATA 6.0Gb/s, so the host controller or backplane must support that link speed for full rated transfer rate. A 2.5" drive bay and standard SATA power and data connectors are also required. Verify the system accepts 2.5" SATA hard drives before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the 00NA526 arrive as a bare drive or with cables and mounting hardware?

The 00NA526 is supplied as a bare drive only. SATA data and power cables, plus any 2.5" mounting brackets or hot-swap trays, must be sourced separately.

The listing mentions 7.2K speed — is that the only spindle-speed option for this 2 TB capacity?

Yes, the 00NA526 is offered in a single 2 TB variant that spins at 7200 RPM. No alternative RPM or capacity versions exist for this part number.

What does the 6.0 Gb/s SATA rating mean for actual throughput in a desktop system?

The 6.0 Gb/s interface sets the maximum burst rate; sustained transfers will be limited by the 7200 RPM mechanical platters and typically fall well below the interface ceiling.
