300 GB 10K SAS drive
This 2.5 inch SAS hard drive delivers 300 GB of capacity at 10000 RPM with a 6 Gbps interface and 64 MB cache. It is built for servers and workstations that need fast sequential access in a small form factor. The bare-drive design suits IT teams replacing or expanding existing arrays.
Capacity and headroom
The 300 GB platter space handles operating-system volumes, database logs and scratch files comfortably. Heavy media libraries or large virtual-machine clusters will exceed the available room quickly. The 64 MB buffer smooths burst workloads but cannot compensate for sustained throughput demands beyond the spindle speed.
Build fit
A SAS backplane or HBA with 6 Gbps ports is required to connect the drive. The 2.5 inch footprint leaves extra bays free for additional spindles or solid-state cache tiers. No mounting hardware or cables are included, so plan for trays and signal leads separately.

- 300 GB capacity stores large datasets
- 10000 RPM spindle delivers fast data access
- 6 Gbps SAS interface enables high-throughput transfers

Questions about this item
Will the ST300MM0006 SAS drive work in a server that only has 3 Gb/s SAS backplanes?
Yes, the 6 Gb/s SAS interface negotiates down to 3 Gb/s, so the drive will operate at the slower link speed without any configuration changes.
How can I confirm the 10000 RPM spindle is running correctly after installation?
Listen for the characteristic high-pitched whine of a 10 K RPM motor and verify the drive reports 10000 RPM in the RAID controller BIOS or SMART data.
Does the bare drive include a 2.5" to 3.5" mounting bracket or SAS cable?
No, the package contains only the ST300MM0006 drive itself; brackets and SAS cables must be purchased separately.
