Dell 300 GB 10K SAS drive
This Dell enterprise hard drive delivers 300 GB of storage on a 2.5 inch form factor. It spins at 10000 RPM and connects through a SAS 12Gb/s interface with a 128 MB cache. The drive is supplied new and targets servers or workstations that need fast mechanical storage.
Suits high-transaction workloads
The 10000 RPM spindle and SAS 12Gb/s link suit databases, virtualization hosts and other latency-sensitive tasks. Buyers who need more capacity or lower power draw should consider alternatives. Systems without a SAS backplane or controller cannot use this drive.
SAS 12Gb/s interface decides fit
The single specification that determines compatibility is the SAS 12Gb/s interface. Your server or controller must support this exact connection standard. Without it the drive will not function regardless of capacity or speed.

Questions about this item
How does the 10000RPM spindle speed affect real-world performance?
The 10000RPM spindle reduces rotational latency, giving faster random-access response times and higher sustained transfer rates for transaction-heavy workloads.
What does the SAS 12Gb/s interface limit in practice?
The SAS 12Gb/s interface caps the maximum host-bus throughput at 12Gb/s, so the drive cannot exceed that bandwidth even if the media is faster.
What physical space and mounting does the 2.5in form factor require?
The 2.5in form factor fits standard 2.5in drive bays or cages and uses the industry-standard SAS connector layout for power and data.
