Dell 400-AKMJ 6TB SAS hard drive
This new Dell 400-AKMJ provides 6TB of storage on a 3.5 inch form factor. The SAS 12Gbps interface connects to compatible controllers at 12 Gbps. A 7.2k spindle speed delivers consistent throughput for bulk data workloads. The drive suits servers and storage arrays that require high-capacity mechanical disks.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
This drive fits administrators expanding SAS-based arrays with 6TB modules. Buyers needing faster random access or lower latency should consider solid-state alternatives. Systems without a SAS backplane or HBA cannot use this device. Environments requiring 2.5 inch form factors must select a different physical size.
Highlights
- 6 TB capacity stores large datasets
- 2 k RPM spindle delivers steady throughput
- SAS 12 Gbps interface enables fast data transfer
- 5 inch form factor fits standard drive bays

Questions about this item
Does my server need a 12 Gbps SAS backplane to use the 400-AKMJ drive?

Will the 3.5 inch form factor fit in the same bays as my older 3.5 inch SAS drives?
Yes, the 3.5 inch form factor matches standard enterprise drive bays used by earlier SAS models.
