Dell PowerEdge SAS Hard Drive 4 TB
This drive is a 3.5-inch SAS hard disk built for Dell PowerEdge servers. It spins at 7200 RPM and provides 128 MB of cache to support sustained throughput in multi-drive arrays. The unit is new and intended for enterprise storage deployments rather than desktop use.
Suited for server storage expansion not desktop PCs
IT teams expanding capacity in compatible PowerEdge chassis will find the 6 Gbps SAS interface matches backplane requirements. Builders assembling a home workstation or gaming rig should look elsewhere because the SAS connector and firmware are not supported by consumer motherboards.
Verify SAS backplane and controller compatibility
Confirm that your server backplane accepts 3.5-inch SAS drives and that the RAID or HBA controller supports 6 Gbps operation. Check available drive bays and caddy requirements before ordering to ensure mechanical fit and electrical compatibility.

Questions about this item
What server backplane or SAS controller does the ST4000NM0023 require to operate?
The drive connects through a 6 Gbps SAS interface and is validated for Dell PowerEdge server backplanes that accept 3.5 inch SAS drives.
Can the 7200 RPM ST4000NM0023 share a PowerEdge backplane with older 3 Gbps SAS drives?
Yes, the 6 Gbps SAS interface negotiates down to 3 Gbps so it will operate alongside legacy SAS drives on the same backplane.
How do I confirm the ST4000NM0023 is recognised at full speed after installation?
Check the RAID controller BIOS or iDRAC; it should list the drive as a 4 TB SAS device linked at 6 Gbps with 128 MB cache.
