Dual-Port SAS Enterprise SSD

The Seagate Nytro 1200.2 ST1600FM0073 is a 1.6TB enterprise solid-state drive built for 2.5-inch drive bays. It uses eMLC flash and a dual-port SAS 12Gb/s interface to deliver redundant I/O paths for mission-critical servers. The 15mm height fits standard enterprise chassis and all-flash arrays. Power-loss protection and advanced error correction safeguard data integrity during unexpected outages.

Suits Write-Intensive Server Workloads

This drive targets server virtualization, OLTP databases, software-defined storage and caching tiers that demand consistent low-latency performance and failover capability. It is not for desktop PCs or laptops lacking SAS controllers and backplane support. It is not for buyers who need a single-port interface or a thinner 7mm form factor. It is not for environments that require a different physical interface than the one specified.

Dual-Port 12Gb/s SAS Interface Decides Fit

The defining specification is the dual-port SAS 12Gb/s interface, which provides redundant, failover I/O communication for high-availability architectures. A host bus adapter or RAID controller with matching dual-port SAS connectivity is mandatory. Without that specific controller support, the drive cannot operate or deliver its data-protection features.

Questions about this item

Does the ST1600FM0073 ship with any cables, brackets or mounting hardware, or must those be sourced separately?

The drive is supplied as a bare 2.5" 15mm SAS module; no cables, brackets or screws are included, so you will need a compatible drive bay or caddy and SAS data/power cables.

How do I decide between the 1.6TB capacity and other capacities in the Nytro 1200.2 range?

Choose 1.6TB when your workload needs high endurance eMLC storage for mixed read/write tasks such as OLTP databases or caching tiers; select a larger capacity only if you require more raw space for the same application profile.

What does the 12Gb/s SAS interface deliver once the drive is installed in a server?

The dual-port 12Gb/s SAS link provides full-duplex 12 Gbit/s bandwidth per port with automatic failover, enabling consistent low-latency throughput for virtualization, all-flash arrays and tiering workloads.
