Dell 2 TB SAS Hard Drive for PowerEdge Servers

This Dell G5DM2 drive delivers 2 TB of storage on a 12 Gbps SAS interface and spins at 7200 RPM with a 128 MB buffer. It uses a 2.5 inch form factor and 512e sector formatting for near-line workloads in compatible PowerEdge servers. The tray is included for hot-plug installation.

The supplied tray lets you slide the drive into a supported bay without tools or cables. Compatibility is limited to systems that accept 2.5 inch SAS hot-plug drives with 512e formatting; servers that require 512n sectors or 3.5 inch bays will not accept this unit.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the drive is spinning at 7200 RPM and communicating over SAS after installation?

The drive should be recognised by the server BIOS or RAID controller as a 2 TB SAS device with a 128 MB buffer and 512E sector format.

What comes in the box and do I need to buy any cables or a tray separately?

The drive ships with a hot-plug tray included; SAS data and power cables are not supplied and must be sourced separately.
