HDD Lenovo 1,2 TB 2,5 pollici 10K SAS Hot Swap 00YK016

The Lenovo 1.2TB 2.5" 10K SAS Hot Swap HDD is a 2.5-inch enterprise-class hard disk drive that provides 1.2 terabytes of usable capacity and a 10,000 RPM spindle speed for consistent, low-latency access to stored data. Engineered for server and storage array environments, this hot-swappable drive supports quick in-field replacement without powering down the system, helping maintain service continuity in multi-drive configurations. Its compact 2.5" form factor reduces rack space usage while offering performance suited to transactional and mixed workload scenarios.

Advantages

The drive combines a high rotational speed with enterprise-grade SAS connectivity to deliver predictable response times and reliable throughput for demanding applications. Hot-swap capability simplifies maintenance and reduces planned downtime by enabling tool-less replacement in compatible drive bays. The small 2.5" format allows higher drive density in servers and storage enclosures, improving storage scalability without sacrificing performance.

Suitable for

• Enterprise servers handling transactional databases and virtualization hosts
• Storage arrays and RAID configurations requiring high spindle speed
• Applications where hot-swap replacement is necessary to maintain uptime
• Environments needing higher drive density in 2.5" drive bays

Key specifications

• Capacity: 1.2 TB
• Form factor: 2.5-inch
• Interface: SAS (Serial Attached SCSI)
• Rotational speed: 10,000 RPM
• Hot-swap capability: supported in compatible enclosures
• Designed for enterprise-class workloads and continuous operation

How to use

Install the drive into a compatible 2.5" SAS drive bay or tray following the server or storage system manufacturer instructions. Ensure the host supports SAS 2.5-inch hot-swap drives and that firmware and RAID controller settings are configured for the intended use. When replacing a drive, follow proper hot-swap procedures: mark the drive as offline in management software if required, remove the drive from the bay, insert the replacement securely, and allow the system to recognize and rebuild any RAID arrays as necessary.

Recommendations

Use this 10K SAS drive for workloads requiring low latency and consistent I/O performance, such as database transaction processing, virtual machine storage, and mixed read/write server tasks. Monitor drive health through system management tools, maintain firmware updates from the server or storage vendor, and deploy within RAID configurations or storage tiers appropriate for enterprise data protection and performance needs.
