Dell 400-AKIE 600GB SAS Hard Drive
This Dell 400-AKIE is a 600GB 2.5 inch SAS hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM. It is built for servers and storage arrays that require a non hot-swap mechanical drive. The unit ships as a bare drive without a mounting tray. It suits administrators replacing a failed drive in a compatible Dell chassis.
Non Hot-Swap SAS 6Gb/s Interface
The drive connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface and is explicitly non hot-swap. This means the host system must be powered down before installation or removal. Controllers or backplanes that only support hot-swap trays will not accept this drive. Buyers needing hot-swap capability must select a different part number.
Bare Drive Packaging
The product arrives in bare drive packaging with no carrier, screws or cables included. Retail or OEM packing may vary but no accessories are guaranteed. Installation requires a separate 2.5 inch drive tray or caddy compatible with the target server. No software utilities or firmware discs are bundled.

Questions about this item
How does the 15000 RPM spindle speed affect real-world access times in a server?
The 15000 RPM rotation reduces average latency, giving faster random read and write response for transaction-heavy workloads.
What does the SAS 6Gb/s interface limit in actual throughput?
The SAS 6Gb/s link caps sustained transfer at roughly 600 MB/s, so the drive cannot exceed that bandwidth even if the media is faster.
Will the 2.5 inch non hot-swap form factor fit a standard 3.5 inch drive bay?
No, the 2.5 inch chassis requires a 2.5 inch bay or an adapter bracket; it cannot mount directly in a 3.5 inch slot.
