Dell 5VNKK 300GB SAS Drive
The Dell 5VNKK is a new 300GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a SAS 12Gb/s interface. It spins at 10000 RPM and ships as a bare drive with an HS tray type. This enterprise-class HDD is built for Dell servers and storage arrays that require a 12Gb/s SAS connection.
Suits SAS bays needing 10K speed
This drive fits 2.5-inch hot-swap bays that accept a 12Gb/s SAS interface and demand 10000 RPM performance. It is not for systems limited to slower SAS speeds or lower spindle speeds. Buyers needing larger capacities or solid-state technology should look elsewhere.
SAS 12Gb/s interface decides fit
The single specification that determines compatibility is the SAS 12Gb/s interface. The host controller and backplane must support this exact transfer rate for the drive to function. Verify the system supports 12Gb/s SAS before purchase.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 10000 RPM SAS drive generate during continuous operation?
The 10000 RPM SAS drive produces typical heat for a 2.5 inch 10K HDD; ensure your chassis airflow matches Dell's thermal guidelines for this form factor.
What controller or backplane is required to run this 12Gb/s SAS drive?
You need a SAS 12Gb/s host bus adapter or RAID controller and a 2.5 inch hot-swap backplane that supports 12Gb/s signalling.
Will this 300GB 2.5 inch SAS drive work in a legacy 6Gb/s SAS backplane?
Yes, the 12Gb/s SAS drive negotiates down to 6Gb/s on older backplanes, but maximum throughput will be limited to the slower link speed.
