Lenovo Storage DS Series 12TB 7.2K SAS 12G 3.5in Hard Drive

For bulk capacity on a DS Series array, the Lenovo 01KP507 stores 12TB on a single 3.5in LFF drive. It runs at 7,200 rpm and uses a 12Gb SAS interface. The drive is hot-swap and ships in its tray.

It is listed for the ThinkSystem DS2200, DS4200 and DS6200, the Lenovo Storage D1212 and D1224, and the DS Series 12G expansion units. Make sure the target shelf has LFF bays, as this is a 3.5in drive.

Typical uses are backup repositories, file shares and archive tiers, where cost per terabyte counts more than spindle speed. Adding several 12TB drives at once is a common way to expand an existing pool.

Order it Refurbished with a 1 year or 3 years warranty, or Used with 90 days of cover.
