300GB 15K SAS drive for enterprise storage

This Seagate Savvio 15K.3 ST9300653SS is a 300GB 2.5-inch SAS hard drive spinning at 15000RPM with a 64MB cache. It is built for enterprise servers and storage arrays that require high transaction rates and low latency. The 6Gb/s SAS interface supports dual-port redundancy for continuous availability. Supplied as a lot of 10 new drives with zero hours.

Suits transaction-heavy workloads not cold archives

Database servers, virtualisation hosts and high-performance computing clusters benefit from the 15K spindle speed and SAS reliability. The 2.5-inch form factor allows high drive density in rackmount chassis. Organisations needing maximum capacity per drive or silent desktop operation should consider other storage types because this drive prioritises IOPS over raw terabytes or acoustic quietness.

15000RPM spindle speed decides fit

The 15000RPM rotational speed is the single specification that determines whether this drive meets the performance target. It delivers the sustained random I/O required for OLTP databases and write-intensive logs. If the workload is sequential or capacity-bound, a lower-RPM nearline drive may be more cost-effective.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5" SAS 6Gb/s interface on the ST9300653SS work with my older 3Gb/s SAS backplane?

Yes, the 6Gb/s SAS interface is backward compatible with 3Gb/s SAS controllers and backplanes, so the drive will operate at the lower speed.

How can I verify the 15000RPM spindle speed and 64MB cache are recognised after installation?

Check the drive properties in your OS device manager or run a SMART tool; both will report 15000RPM rotational speed and 64MB buffer size.

Does the ST9300653SS ship with a mounting bracket or cables, or must I source them separately?

The drive is supplied as a bare 2.5" SAS unit; any 2.5" to 3.5" adapter bracket and SAS data/power cables must be purchased separately.
