Enterprise Storage Drive

The Seagate Constellation ES.3 ST1000NM0023 is a 1TB 3.5 inch enterprise hard drive built for continuous 24x7 bulk data workloads. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 128MB cache and connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface. The bare drive measures 147.00mm long, 101.85mm wide and 26.10mm high with an average latency of 4.16ms.

Compatibility Check

Your system must provide a SAS controller or backplane because this drive will not operate on a standard desktop SATA-only motherboard. Verify that your chassis accepts a 3.5 inch form factor with the stated maximum dimensions. Ensure your power supply delivers the correct connectors for SAS power and that your RAID or HBA firmware supports the drive.

Target Users

This drive suits IT administrators expanding enterprise storage arrays, backup repositories or surveillance servers that demand predictable 7200 RPM performance in a SAS environment. It is not suitable for builders who need a desktop boot drive, users without SAS infrastructure or anyone requiring consumer SATA connectivity.

Questions about this item

Does the bare drive include cables or a mounting bracket, or must they be purchased separately?

The drive is supplied as a bare unit only; SAS data and power cables plus any 3.5" mounting hardware must be sourced separately.

Should I choose the SAS 6Gb/s version or a SATA model for a server that only has SAS backplanes?

Select this SAS 6Gb/s model; it connects directly to SAS backplanes without an interposer, whereas a SATA drive would need one.

What does the 7200 RPM rating mean for sustained throughput in a RAID array?

The 7200 RPM spindle delivers predictable performance with 4.16 ms average latency, suited to 24x7 bulk-data workloads in RAID.
