500 GB SATA hard drive with tray

This 2.5-inch SATA hard drive delivers 500 GB of storage at 7200 RPM and includes a System X caddy for direct installation. The 6 Gbps interface supports standard SATA controllers found in servers and workstations. It arrives new from the manufacturer with a one-year warranty.

Suits System X bays; not for 3.5-only chassis

The drive fits 2.5-inch hot-swap bays that accept the supplied caddy, making it a drop-in upgrade for compatible IBM System X servers. Builders whose chassis only accept 3.5-inch drives cannot use this unit without an additional adapter. Laptop users should verify height clearance before ordering.

7200 RPM rotational speed

Spindle speed of 7200 RPM determines the drive's sustained throughput and access latency for typical server workloads. This figure is the primary indicator of whether the drive meets the performance profile required for the target application.
