Refurbished enterprise SAS hard drives are the capacity tier of a server, previously deployed and tested, and we sell them by capacity, spindle speed and form factor rather than by brand because the manufacturer varies by lot. They run on any PERC, Smart Array or HBA with a SAS backplane, at the link speed the controller and backplane negotiate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVaries by lot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCapacity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 TB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInterface\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSAS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eForm factor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5-inch LFF\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpindle speed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7,200 RPM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCondition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRefurbished\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180-day\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBay first: this drive needs a 3.5-inch LFF bay; a 2.5-inch-only chassis cannot take it. Interface second: it is SAS, so it runs behind a PERC, Smart Array or HBA on a SAS backplane, not from onboard SATA. Dell 3.5-inch trays changed between 13th gen and 14th gen, and HPE LFF carriers are their own design, so we match the tray to your chassis.

Pair it with flash for anything latency-sensitive. RAID 5 is a poor bet at 18TB: one rebuild reads every remaining drive end to end for well over a day, so we quote RAID 6 or RAID 10. The 16TB or 20TB are the neighbouring sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo boot from a volume above 2 TB, use UEFI and a GPT partition table. On PERC, clear any foreign configuration before adding the drive to a new virtual disk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery part we sell is tested and covered by our 180-day warranty.
