Purpose-built 600 GB SAS drive
The Dell 453KG is a 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a 600 GB capacity and a 10000 RPM spindle speed. It uses a SAS interface and a 512n disk format. The drive is designed for Dell EMC PowerVault MD12XX storage systems and arrives in refurbished condition.
Sustained 10000 RPM operation
At a constant 10000 RPM the drive delivers consistent throughput for random I/O workloads typical of database or virtualisation tiers. The SAS interface supports dual-port connectivity for path redundancy during extended sessions. Mechanical latency remains stable because the spindle speed does not throttle under load.
Verify SAS backplane and bay fit
Confirm that your enclosure provides 2.5-inch SAS drive bays and a compatible backplane or HBA with SAS connectors. The 512n sector format must be supported by the RAID controller or host bus adapter firmware. Buyers needing larger capacities or a different interface will need another model.

Questions about this item
How much heat and noise does the 10000 RPM 453KG drive add when running continuously in a Dell EMC PowerVault MD12XX?
The 10000 RPM spindle speed means higher sustained heat output and audible seek noise than slower drives; the MD12XX chassis is designed to cool and dampen this class of SAS drive.
What controller or backplane must already be present for the 453KG SAS drive to function?
A SAS host bus adapter or RAID controller with a 2.5-inch SAS backplane that accepts 512n sector format is required; the MD12XX enclosure provides this natively.
Will the 600 GB 453KG drive integrate with existing 2.5-inch SAS drives already installed in the same MD12XX array?
Yes — it shares the SAS interface, 2.5-inch form factor and 512n format, so it can join existing volumes or spares pools in the MD12XX without firmware conflicts.
