300 GB 15 000 RPM SAS drive
This 2.5 inch SAS hard drive delivers 300 GB of capacity at 15 000 RPM for transaction-heavy workloads. The 12 Gbps interface suits Lenovo System x servers and compatible storage arrays. It targets administrators who need low-latency spindle performance in a hot-swap bay.
Build quality and daily use
The drive ships new in a System x caddy that locks into G3HS hot-swap bays without tools. A 12 Gbps SAS connector provides dual-port redundancy and backward compatibility with 6 Gbps controllers. The 1.0 pound weight keeps rack density high.
Upgrade path and fit
This unit replaces failed 300 GB 15 000 RPM SAS drives or upgrades slower 10 000 RPM spindles in the same form factor. The jump is worth it when queue depth and random IOPS limit database or virtualisation performance. Buyers needing larger capacity or solid-state latency should look elsewhere.
Highlights
- 300 GB capacity stores large datasets
- 15000 RPM spindle delivers fast data access
- SAS 12Gbps interface provides high-throughput connectivity
- 5 inch form factor fits dense server bays
- Includes System X caddy for quick installation

Questions about this item
What does the 12Gbps SAS interface cap in practice?
The 12Gbps SAS interface supports up to 12Gbps signalling; actual throughput depends on the 15000RPM mechanical media and system controller.
What physical space and mounting does the 2.5" SAS drive need?
The drive uses a 2.5 inch form factor and ships with a System X caddy/tray for direct mounting in compatible bays.
How is the HUC156030CSS200 installed, and what step is often missed?
Slide the drive into the included System X caddy, secure it with the caddy screws, then insert the assembly into the hot-swap bay until the latch clicks.
