IBM 600GB 15000RPM SAS drive

This new IBM internal hard drive delivers 600GB of storage on a 2.5 inch form factor. It spins at 15000RPM and connects through a 12Gbps SAS interface. The package includes a System X caddy for direct installation into compatible bays.

Suited for high-throughput server workloads

The 15000RPM spindle speed and 12Gbps SAS link make this drive appropriate for transactional databases and performance-sensitive arrays. It is not for platforms that lack a SAS controller or that only provide 2.5 inch bays without the correct backplane signalling. Laptop builders and desktop users without enterprise host adapters should look elsewhere.

Deciding spec: 12Gbps SAS interface

The host system must present a 12Gbps SAS port and a 2.5 inch drive bay that accepts the supplied caddy. Without that controller and physical fit the drive cannot operate at its rated speed or mount securely. Verify the controller and bay compatibility before purchase.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the 12Gbps SAS interface actually deliver?

The 12Gbps SAS link supports up to 12Gbps raw signalling; real-world throughput depends on the controller and workload.

What physical space and mounting does the 2.5in G3HS drive with its included System X caddy require?

It fits a standard 2.5in SAS bay; the supplied caddy adapts it to the System X hot-swap tray form factor.

How is the HUC156060CSS200 installed in a System X server, and which step is often missed?

Slide the caddied drive into the hot-swap bay until the latch clicks; the step often missed is fully seating the SAS connector before locking the lever.
