Enterprise 300GB 10K SAS Drive

The Seagate ST300MM0008 is a 300GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 10000RPM with a 12Gbps SAS interface and 128MB cache. It is built for enterprise servers and storage arrays that demand consistent throughput and low latency. The bare-drive form factor fits standard hot-swap bays in rackmount and tower chassis. New condition ensures full manufacturer-rated reliability from first power-on.

Suited for high-IOPS workloads

This drive suits database servers, virtualization hosts and transaction-heavy applications that benefit from 10K spindle speed and 12Gbps SAS bandwidth. It is not for systems requiring capacities above 300GB, nor for platforms limited to slower SAS link speeds. Buyers needing silent desktop storage or USB connectivity should look elsewhere.

12Gbps SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 12Gbps SAS interface; the host controller and backplane must support this link rate to realise the drive's rated performance. A 6Gbps SAS environment will operate the drive at the lower speed, reducing peak throughput. Verify controller and cable specifications before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will this 2.5-inch SAS drive fit a standard 2.5-inch drive bay or caddy?

Yes, the 2.5-inch form factor matches standard 2.5-inch bays and hot-swap caddies used in servers and storage arrays.

What is the correct way to connect the 12Gbps SAS interface during installation?

Attach the SAS data and power connectors firmly to the backplane or controller; the common mistake is leaving the dual-port SAS connector partially seated.

When should the 128MB cache drive be replaced in a RAID array?

Replace it when SMART reports reallocated sectors or the RAID controller flags predictive failure, typically after several years of 10000RPM operation.
