Dell 400-AKLN 600GB SAS 15K Drive
The Dell 400-AKLN is a 600GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive built for Dell PowerEdge servers. It uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and spins at 15000 RPM for rapid data access. This bare drive is designed for hot-plug bays in compatible rack and tower systems. IT administrators expanding server storage will find it matches original Dell specifications.
600GB Capacity and 15000 RPM Performance
The 600GB capacity suits operating systems, databases and high-transaction workloads that demand low latency. The 15000 RPM spindle speed delivers fast sequential and random read performance for I/O-intensive applications. Capacity runs out quickly with large media libraries or archival datasets that exceed this limit. Buyers who want more storage should consider higher-capacity drives or additional bays.
SAS 12Gb/s Hot-Plug Interface
The drive connects via a SAS 12Gb/s interface and supports hot-plug installation in supported PowerEdge servers. Compatibility is limited to the listed Dell PowerEdge R330, R430, R630, R730, R730XD, T330, T430 and T630 models. It will not function in systems lacking a SAS backplane or the required drive carrier. Builders who need a second card or a different interface cannot use this drive.

Questions about this item
Will this 12Gb/s SAS drive work in a PowerEdge R630 that currently uses 6Gb/s SAS drives?
The drive is compatible with the PowerEdge R630 and will negotiate down to 6Gb/s on a 6Gb/s backplane while still operating at 15000 RPM.
How can I verify the 15000 RPM spindle speed is active after installation?
Check the drive properties in the RAID controller BIOS or Dell OpenManage; the spindle speed will be reported as 15000 RPM if the drive is functioning correctly.
The listing says bare drive — does the box include a 2.5" hot-plug tray or must I order one separately?
The drive ships as a bare unit without a tray; a Dell 2.5" hot-plug tray for your specific PowerEdge model must be purchased separately.
