IBM 00Y5148 4TB SAS hard drive

This IBM 00Y5148 is a new 4TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 7200 RPM. It connects via a SAS 6Gb/s interface and is supplied as a bare drive. The unit is designed for installation inside compatible storage systems.

Suited for arrays needing nearline SAS storage

Administrators expanding nearline SAS storage in supported systems will find the capacity and spindle speed appropriate. Buyers who require a different interface protocol or a smaller form factor should look at other options. The bare-drive packaging also means no mounting hardware or cables are included.

SAS 6Gb/s interface determines compatibility

The drive uses a Near Line SAS interface running at 6Gb/s, so the host controller or backplane must support this exact standard. Without a matching SAS connection the drive cannot communicate with the system. Verify the interface requirement before purchase.

Questions about this item

How often will the 7200 RPM spindle bearings need replacement in a storage system?

The 7200 RPM spindle is a sealed mechanical assembly; bearings are not user-serviceable and the drive is replaced as a unit when wear or error rates increase.

Which limit appears first during sustained write workloads on the SAS 6Gb/s interface?

The 6Gb/s SAS link caps sustained throughput, so the interface bandwidth becomes the bottleneck before the 7200 RPM media speed under continuous writes.

How much heat and noise does the 3.5" Near Line SAS drive produce when running all day?

As a 3.5" 7200 RPM Near Line SAS drive, it generates typical enterprise-level heat and audible seek noise during continuous operation, requiring standard server airflow.
