Spinning rust, at 10,000 RPM. All of its attributes are quite easily expected; linear transfer rates are quite good, but random seeking leaves a bit to be desired. Capacity is a bit low for cost, as has always been the case for SCSI and SAS drives. When set up in a RAID (7 disks RAID 6 in my testing) configuration, the combined performance can be quite good. Being an SAS, don't forget that SATA host controllers are incapable of initializing them. They also get very, very hot. I've had a couple of these exceed 90C temperature after a fan failure, and they still work perfectly fine (they were idle at the time; the results may have been different if under load). Very shock sensitive when operating. Despite their laptop-like form factor (with even smaller platters), the high rotational speeds ensure that when things go wrong, they go wrong very quickly. Mount in a drive array for safest results; most people considering these are probably stuffing HP SmartArrays anyhow.Read full review
The drive easily installed itself into the server array. All systems are back to full capacity.
