Questions about this item
How can I verify the 12Gbps SAS link is active after installing the drive?
Check the controller BIOS or management utility for a negotiated 12Gbps link speed and confirm the drive reports 2TB capacity with no errors during initialisation.
Does the package include a 3.5-inch SAS tray or cables, or must they be purchased separately?
The drive ships as a bare 3.5-inch unit; any hot-plug tray or SAS cables required for your enclosure must be sourced separately.
