900GB 2.5" SAS 10K server drive
This IBM 81Y9893 is a 900GB internal hard drive with a 2.5 inch form factor. It runs at 10000 RPM and connects through a SAS interface rated at 6Gb/s. The unit ships new with a hot-swap tray included for direct server installation.
Suited for server storage arrays needing 10K SAS
IT teams running compatible servers that accept 2.5 inch SAS drives at 6Gb/s can use this drive to add 900GB of high-speed capacity. Buyers whose systems only support slower SAS speeds or different physical interfaces should look elsewhere because this drive requires a 6Gb/s SAS connection.
6Gb/s SAS interface determines compatibility
The drive interface standard is 6Gb/s SAS, and this single specification decides whether the drive will work in a given server. The controller and backplane must support 6Gb/s SAS for the drive to function at its rated speed and be recognised by the system.

Questions about this item
What does the 10000 RPM spindle speed mean for server workloads?
The 10000 RPM spindle speed reduces rotational latency, giving faster random read and write response times for transaction-heavy server applications.
How does the 6Gb/s SAS interface limit real-world throughput?
The 6Gb/s SAS interface caps the maximum burst transfer rate at six gigabits per second, which the drive’s internal media speed will not exceed in sustained operation.
Will the included hot-swap tray fit a standard 2.5-inch server bay?
Yes, the supplied hot-swap tray is built for the 2.5-inch form factor and matches the drive cage slots used in compatible IBM server chassis.
