Enterprise 300 GB SAS drive
This refurbished Dell X79H3 is a 300 GB 2.5 inch internal hard drive built for enterprise storage arrays. It connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface and spins at 10000 RPM with a 32 MB buffer. The drive suits administrators who need reliable capacity for server workloads.
Sustained 10000 RPM throughput
The spindle maintains 10000 RPM during extended read and write sessions rather than throttling after a short burst. SAS signalling at 6Gb/s keeps the bus saturated when multiple drives share a controller. This behaviour supports constant database or virtualisation traffic.
2.5 inch tray for dense bays
The drive ships with a tray that fits 2.5 inch hot-swap bays common in PowerVault and similar chassis. SAS connectors are keyed to prevent mis-insertion during rapid replacement. Build quality targets continuous operation in multi-drive enclosures.

Questions about this item
How much heat and power does the 10000 RPM SAS drive produce during continuous operation?
The 10000 RPM spindle and SAS 6Gb/s interface are built for enterprise storage workloads, so the drive is engineered to handle sustained activity in server environments.
What controller or backplane is needed to run this 2.5" SAS 6Gb/s drive?
A SAS host bus adapter or RAID controller with a 6Gb/s port and a 2.5-inch drive bay or tray is required to connect and power the drive.
Will this 300 GB SAS drive work in an older server that only supports 3Gb/s SAS?
The SAS 6Gb/s interface is backwards compatible with 3Gb/s controllers, so the drive will operate at the lower link speed on legacy hardware.
