IBM 44X2459 1TB SATA Hard Drive
This IBM 44X2459 is a 1TB internal hard drive with a 7200 RPM spindle speed and a SATA interface. It fits a standard 3.5 inch drive bay and includes a 64 MB buffer. The drive is supplied new and intended for desktop or compatible storage enclosure installations.
Suited for SATA storage expansion and replacement
This drive suits users adding capacity to a system with a free SATA port and a 3.5 inch bay. It also serves as a direct replacement for a failed SATA drive in compatible IBM DS4000 EXP810 expansion units. Builders needing a smaller 2.5 inch form factor or a different interface protocol should consider other options.
SATA interface and 3.5 inch form factor
The SATA interface and 3.5 inch form factor determine whether this drive fits the target system. Verify that the host provides a SATA data connection, SATA power connector and physical space for a 3.5 inch device before purchase.
