2TB Nearline SAS Drive
The Dell 400-ANWK is a 2TB 2.5-inch internal hard drive built for Dell PowerEdge servers. It spins at 7200 RPM and uses a SAS interface rated at 12Gb/s. Hot-pluggable design allows replacement without shutting down the system. This drive suits administrators expanding storage arrays in compatible rack or tower servers.
Upgrading from smaller SAS drives
Replacing lower-capacity nearline SAS drives with this 2TB model increases raw storage in the same bay count. The jump is worth it when current volumes are full and the server chassis has no free 3.5-inch bays. It also helps when a failed drive must be matched to the existing 12Gb/s backplane speed. Buyers who need faster random access or solid-state endurance should look elsewhere.
Check server model and backplane
Verify the server is a listed PowerEdge model such as R230, R330, R430, R630, R730, R730XD, T330, T430 or T630. Confirm the backplane supports 2.5-inch SAS drives and 12Gb/s signalling. Ensure the RAID controller or HBA recognises nearline SAS drives at this capacity. Buyers without a compatible Dell server or SAS backplane cannot use this drive.

Perguntas sobre este artigo
Does the 2.5" form factor fit the drive bays in a PowerEdge R630?
Yes, the 2.5" drive matches the front bays in the R630, R730, R730XD, R230, R330, R430, T330, T430 and T630.
What is the installation step that causes the most trouble when fitting this drive?
The drive is hot-pluggable, so insert it while the server is running; the carrier latch must click fully home or the SAS link will not train at 12Gb/s.
When will the 7200 RPM spindle bearings need replacement?
Enterprise nearline drives are rated for continuous operation; under normal server workloads the bearings typically last the full service life of the unit.
