Enterprise 1.2TB SAS Drive

The Toshiba AL15SEB120N is a 1.2TB 2.5-inch internal hard drive built for enterprise storage systems. It spins at 10,000 RPM and connects through a SAS 12Gb/s interface with a 128MB cache. The 512 native sector format supports compatibility with demanding server applications.

Suited For Mission Critical Servers

This drive targets IT operations that need sustained 10.5K RPM performance for database servers and hybrid storage platforms. Persistent Write Cache technology helps protect data during unexpected power loss. Buyers needing capacities above 1.2TB or a different sector format such as 512e or 4Kn should look at other models.

SAS 12Gb/s Interface Decides Fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the SAS 12Gb/s interface. The drive requires a server or controller that supports this exact connection standard. Without a compatible SAS backplane or HBA the drive cannot function in the system.

Questions about this item

Does my server backplane or controller need to support 12.0 Gbit/s SAS for this AL15SEB120N to work?

Yes, the drive uses a 12.0 Gbit/s SAS interface and requires a compatible controller or backplane that supports this signalling rate.

Can I keep my existing 6 Gbit/s SAS drives in the same enclosure while adding this 12.0 Gbit/s model?

The AL15SEB120N will negotiate down to the speed supported by the backplane, so it can coexist with 6 Gbit/s drives on a shared domain.

How can I verify the 10 500 rpm spindle speed and 128 MB cache are active after installation?

Check the drive’s reported rotational speed and cache size in your RAID controller BIOS or operating system utilities such as smartctl.
