  • 2 TB capacity stores large datasets

1.2 TB SAS Drive for PowerEdge R320 R420

This 2.5-inch internal hard drive delivers 1.2 TB of storage with a 10 000 RPM spindle speed and a 6 Gb/s SAS interface. It is built for Dell PowerEdge R320 and R420 servers requiring high-speed, mission-critical storage. The drive is supplied in new condition with OEM or retail packaging.

Suited for 10K SAS Bays Not for SATA-Only Systems

This drive suits administrators upgrading or repairing R320 and R420 arrays that accept 2.5-inch 10K SAS drives. Buyers whose chassis or backplane only support SATA signalling should look at something else, as the SAS protocol will not negotiate on a SATA-only controller.

6 Gb/s SAS Interface Decides Fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 6 Gb/s SAS interface. The server backplane and RAID controller must both support SAS at this speed; a SATA-only or 3 Gb/s SAS connection will prevent the drive from functioning.
