300GB SAS drive for Dell PowerEdge servers

This 300GB SAS drive fits 2.5-inch bays in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers. It spins at 10K RPM and uses a 12G SAS interface for enterprise workloads. The drive suits IT teams replacing failed disks or expanding arrays in supported rack and tower models.

SAS 12G interface limits real-world throughput

The 12G SAS link caps maximum burst transfer at 12 Gbit/s, while sustained speeds depend on the 10K RPM mechanics and the RAID controller. Backplane negotiation, cable length and controller queue depth can all reduce effective bandwidth below the theoretical peak.

Hot-plug tray eases installation if the caddy

Most listed servers accept hot-plug trays, so the drive slides in without tools when the correct carrier is used. Installation fails when a mismatched or missing caddy prevents the SAS connector from seating, or when the backplane firmware does not recognise the drive.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 300GB 10K SAS drive or a larger capacity for my Dell server?

The 300GB 10K SAS drive suits databases and OS volumes needing fast random access; pick a higher capacity only if sequential storage outweighs the 10K spindle speed advantage.

What does the 12G SAS rating deliver inside a PowerEdge R720?

The 12G SAS interface supports up to 12 Gbit/s throughput, but the 10K mechanical limit means sustained reads top out near the drive's own media rate, not the bus ceiling.

Does the 12G SAS connector work with older 6G backplanes in an R610?

Yes, the 12G SAS drive is backward compatible with 6G and 3G backplanes; it will negotiate the highest speed the controller and backplane support.
