300 GB 15K SAS drive for enterprise servers

This IBM HUS156030VLS600 is a new 300 GB internal hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM with a 6Gb/s SAS interface. It targets servers and storage arrays that need fast, consistent access to transactional data. The 3.5 inch form factor fits standard enterprise drive bays.

Tool-less caddy eases installation

The drive ships with an IBM system caddy that slides into compatible hot-swap bays without tools. Alignment pins on the tray prevent connector damage during insertion. Installers should verify that the backplane supports 6Gb/s SAS before seating the drive.

300 GB suits OS and log volumes

At 300 GB the drive comfortably holds operating systems, databases indexes and write-intensive logs where 15K RPM reduces latency. Capacity runs out quickly for bulk media, large backups or video archives; those workloads need larger or additional drives.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 15000 RPM drive is recognised and healthy after installation?

The drive should appear in the BIOS or RAID controller at its full 300 GB capacity with the SAS 6Gb/s link speed shown, and SMART attributes should report no reallocated or pending sectors.

What is included with the HUS156030VLS600 and what must be sourced separately?

The package contains the 300 GB 15K RPM SAS drive and the IBM system caddy or tray; cables, backplane brackets and any mounting screws are not included.

Which capacity and speed version of this SAS drive should I select for a 15K RPM requirement?

Choose the HUS156030VLS600 model, which delivers 300 GB at 15000 RPM over a 6Gb/s SAS interface — the only variant listed with that rotational speed.
