Dell 300GB 15K SAS Enterprise Drive

This Dell ST3300655SS is a 300GB 3.5-inch hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM with a 16 MB cache. It uses a SAS interface and is built for server or storage array environments that demand high spindle speeds. The unit is supplied new with zero hours of operation.

Suits SAS-Equipped Servers Not Desktop PCs

This drive fits servers and arrays that accept 3.5-inch SAS drives and can leverage 15K RPM performance for transaction-heavy workloads. Buyers without a SAS backplane or controller should look elsewhere, as the interface is not compatible with standard desktop drive connections. It is also unsuitable for anyone needing larger capacities or solid-state speeds.

15000 RPM Spindle Speed Defines The Use Case

The 15000 RPM rotation speed is the specification that determines whether this drive matches the workload. It targets applications where low latency and high IOPS from mechanical media are required, such as database logs or high-transaction environments. If the target system cannot accommodate 15K drives thermally or mechanically, a different drive class is needed.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.5in SAS drive ship with any mounting hardware or cables, or must they be purchased separately?

The drive is supplied as the bare HDD only; mounting brackets, SAS data cables and power cables are not included and must be sourced separately for your server or storage enclosure.

Which part number should I order if I need the 300GB 15K 3G SAS model?

Order part number HT953 or 0HT953 — both refer to the same 300GB 15000 RPM SAS drive with 16MB cache.

What sustained throughput can I expect from the 15000 RPM SAS drive inside a typical server backplane?

The 15000 RPM spindle and SAS interface deliver high sequential and random I/O performance suited to transaction-heavy workloads, though exact MB/s depends on the controller and RAID configuration.
