2 TB Near-Line SAS Drive

This 3.5-inch internal hard drive provides 2 TB of storage on a 6 Gb/s SAS interface spinning at 7200 RPM. It is built for near-line workloads in server and storage-array environments where consistent throughput and hot-swap capability matter.

Verify SAS Backplane and Tray Compatibility

Confirm that your chassis or storage enclosure accepts 3.5-inch SAS drives and supplies a compatible hot-swap backplane. The included tray fits standard IBM bays, but other vendors may require a different carrier or firmware revision for proper detection.

Replaces Smaller Near-Line SAS Units

The drive upgrades from lower-capacity near-line SAS modules in supported IBM DS3500 systems when additional raw space is needed without changing spindle speed or interface. The jump is worthwhile when current bays are full and the array controller supports the larger volume.

Questions about this item

Does the 49Y1875 ship with cables, brackets or a hot-swap tray?

The drive is a bare unit but a hot-swap tray is included; SAS data and power cables are not supplied and must be sourced separately.

Should I choose the 2 TB 7.2K 6 Gb/s SAS model or a different capacity for an IBM DS3500?

This 2 TB 3.5" near-line SAS drive at 7200 RPM is the specific part qualified for the DS3500; select it when you need that exact capacity and spindle speed.

What does the 7200 RPM rating mean for throughput inside a DS3500 array?

At 7200 RPM the drive delivers near-line sequential throughput suitable for bulk storage tiers in the DS3500, with the 6 Gb/s SAS interface matching the controller speed.
