Seagate ST3600057SS 9FN066-031 600GB 15K RPM 3.5" SAS internal hard drive
A 600 GB enterprise SAS drive spinning at 15000 RPM with a 16 MB cache and PowerTrim power optimisation for Tier 1 servers
- Mission-critical performance from 15000RPM spindle speed
- Enterprise-grade reliability for Tier 1 storage environments
- 600GB capacity in a 3.5-inch form factor
- SAS 6Gb/s interface for fast data throughput
- PowerTrim technology optimises consumption at all activity levels
Server storage drive
This 600 GB Seagate Cheetah 15K.7 spins at 15 000 RPM and connects through a 3.5-inch SAS 6Gb/s interface with a 16 MB buffer. It is built for Tier 1 enterprise environments where consistent throughput and low latency are critical. PowerTrim technology adjusts consumption dynamically across workload levels.
Enterprise workloads only
The drive targets database servers, high-transaction applications and other mission-critical roles that demand sustained random I/O performance. Desktop PCs, workstations or any system lacking a SAS backplane and enterprise-class cooling cannot use this drive. Buyers needing higher capacity per spindle should evaluate other form factors.
15 000 RPM spindle speed
The 15 000 RPM rotation rate is the single specification that determines whether this drive meets the latency and IOPS requirements of a Tier 1 deployment. If the workload can be satisfied by slower spindles, a different drive class will be more appropriate.

Questions about this item
What controller or backplane do I need to connect the SAS 6Gb/s interface on this drive?
You need a SAS host bus adapter, RAID controller or server backplane that supports 6Gb/s SAS signalling and provides a standard 3.5-inch drive bay with power and data connectors.
Can the 15000RPM spindle speed and 16MB cache run on an older 3Gb/s SAS controller without issues?
The drive will negotiate down to 3Gb/s on an older controller, but sustained throughput will be limited by the slower link rather than the 15000RPM mechanics.
How can I verify the drive is healthy after installation using its built-in diagnostics?
Run the Drive Self Test (DST) from your RAID controller BIOS or operating-system utility; a pass result confirms the 600GB capacity and 15000RPM operation are functioning.
