Product identity

The IBM 43W7626 is a 1TB 3.5-inch desktop internal hard drive with a SATA 3.0Gb/s interface and 7200 RPM spindle speed. Supplied as a bare drive, it is designed for server environments and hot-swap tray use.

Who this suits

Administrators adding bulk storage to compatible 3.5-inch hot-swap bays will find the capacity and rotational speed appropriate for nearline workloads. Builders needing faster transfer rates, smaller form factors or solid-state performance should consider other technologies.

Capacity and headroom

One terabyte provides ample room for operating-system images, logs and archival data in typical server deployments. The 3.0Gb/s SATA link and mechanical latency become bottlenecks for high-IOPS databases or sustained sequential workloads exceeding the interface bandwidth.

Highlights

  • 1TB capacity for large data storage
  • 7200 RPM spindle speed for responsive performance
  • SATA 3.0Gb/s interface for broad system compatibility
  • 5 inch form factor fits standard desktop bays

Questions about this item

Will this 3.5" SATA drive fit my standard desktop drive bay and connect to my motherboard SATA port?

The drive uses a 3.5 inch form factor with a standard SATA 3.0Gb/s interface so it mounts in any 3.5 inch bay and plugs directly into a motherboard SATA connector.

Can I run this 7200 RPM drive on an older SATA 1.5Gb/s controller without losing data integrity?

The SATA 3.0Gb/s interface negotiates down to the controller speed so the drive will operate reliably on a 1.5Gb/s link at the lower transfer rate.

How do I confirm the 1TB capacity and 7200 RPM speed are recognised after installation?

Check the BIOS drive information or operating system disk utility; both should report 1TB capacity and 7200 RPM for model 43W7626.
