Enterprise 15K SAS Drive
The Seagate ST300MP0006 is a 300 GB enterprise hard drive spinning at 15 000 RPM with a SAS 12.0 GB/s interface and 256 MB cache. It delivers sustained transfer rates from 300 to 210 MB/s and an external rate of 1 200 MB/s. Average latency is 2.0 ms. The unit measures 69.85 x 100.45 x 15.00 mm and weighs 225.0 g.
Suits high-IOPS server workloads
This drive suits database servers, transaction logging and other latency-sensitive tasks that benefit from 15 000 RPM spindle speed and SAS connectivity. It is not for systems that lack a SAS host bus adapter or backplane. Buyers needing larger capacities or lower power draw should look at other options.
Deciding spec: SAS 12.0 GB/s interface
The single specification that decides fitment is the SAS 12.0 GB/s interface. Your controller or backplane must support this exact protocol and speed. Without a compatible SAS connection the drive cannot communicate with the system.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the ST300MP0006 is performing correctly after installation?
Check that the drive reports 15000 RPM spindle speed and SAS 12.0 GB/s link speed in your RAID controller BIOS or OS utility; sustained reads should fall between 300 and 210 MB/s with average latency near 2.0 ms.
What ships with the ST300MP0006 and what must I source separately?
The drive itself is included; retail or OEM packing may vary. You will need a SAS 12.0 GB/s backplane or HBA, compatible power cables for +5 V and +12 V rails, and mounting screws for a 2.750 × 3.955 × 0.591 in bay.
Which capacity of the Enterprise Performance 15K line should I choose?
This model is the 300 GB variant with 256 MB cache, 15000 RPM, SAS 12.0 GB/s interface, 6.90 W typical operating power and 225.0 g weight.
