3TB SAS 6Gb/s 7200RPM Drive

The Seagate Constellation ES.2 ST33000650SS is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive with a 3000GB capacity and a 7200RPM spindle speed. It uses a SAS 6Gb/s interface and includes a 64MB buffer. The drive is supplied new for desktop and server storage applications.

Enterprise RAID and Server Arrays

This drive suits administrators building RAID arrays or expanding bulk storage in servers that accept 3.5-inch SAS drives. It is not for buyers who need a different interface protocol or a 2.5-inch form factor. Buyers requiring higher spindle speeds or larger cache sizes should consider other models.

SAS 6Gb/s Interface Compatibility

The single specification that decides fitment is the SAS 6Gb/s interface; the host system must provide a compatible SAS backplane or controller. Without a SAS connection the drive cannot be installed or used.

Highlights

  • 3 TB capacity stores large datasets
  • 7200 RPM spindle speed enables fast sequential access
  • 64 MB cache buffers burst workloads
  • SAS 6 Gb/s interface connects to enterprise controllers

Questions about this item

How do I install the ST33000650SS 3.5" SAS drive and what step is often missed?

Mount the 3.5 inch drive in a bay, connect the SAS data cable to a 6Gb/s port, and attach the required power connector; the step often missed is verifying the backplane or HBA is set to 6Gb/s link speed.

What maintenance or replacement will the ST33000650SS need later?

No scheduled maintenance is required; plan to replace the drive once its rated workload or error thresholds are reached, typically after several years of continuous 7200RPM operation.

What limit appears first on the ST33000650SS during sustained use?

The 6Gb/s SAS interface caps sustained throughput, so the link bandwidth limit is reached before the 7200RPM platters or 64MB cache saturate.
