Product overview

The Dell 400-BTBM is a 16TB 7200RPM SAS 12Gbps 3.5-inch hot-plug hard drive designed for demanding storage environments that require high capacity and consistent performance. With its 16TB capacity, it supports large data volumes and consolidation of storage in server and storage systems. The 7200RPM spindle speed is suited to workloads that need balanced throughput and responsiveness. Leveraging a SAS 12Gbps interface, this drive is built for use in infrastructures that rely on SAS connectivity for reliable data transfer. The 3.5-inch form factor and hot-plug design allow integration into compatible hot-plug drive bays for streamlined maintenance and replacement. This combination of capacity, rotational speed, SAS 12Gbps interface, and 3.5-inch hot-plug format makes the Dell 400-BTBM a practical option for organizations standardizing on SAS-based, high-capacity hard drives for server and storage deployments.

Best for

Enterprise storage
Suited to enterprise environments that need a 16TB 7200RPM SAS 12Gbps 3.5-inch hard drive to support large data sets within SAS-based storage infrastructures.
Server expansion
Appropriate for expanding capacity in servers that accept 3.5-inch hot-plug drives using a SAS 12Gbps interface and require 16TB per drive with 7200RPM performance.
Data backup
Useful for backup targets where 16TB capacity and 7200RPM rotational speed on a SAS 12Gbps 3.5-inch hot-plug hard drive help store sizeable backup archives.
Archival storage
Fits archival workloads that benefit from a single 16TB drive in a 3.5-inch hot-plug form factor with 7200RPM speed and SAS 12Gbps connectivity.
Data consolidation
Enables consolidation of multiple smaller disks into fewer 16TB 7200RPM SAS 12Gbps 3.5-inch hot-plug drives in compatible systems.

Frequently asked questions

What is the storage capacity of the Dell 400-BTBM hard drive?

The Dell 400-BTBM hard drive offers a capacity of 16TB. This allows each drive to store a large volume of data, which is useful for servers and storage systems where high capacity per bay is required. Procurement teams can use this 16TB figure to plan overall storage footprints and future expansion.

Which interface does the Dell 400-BTBM drive use?

: "The Dell 400-BTBM uses a SAS 12Gbps interface. This interface type is commonly deployed in data centers for connecting hard drives to SAS controllers and backplanes. When specifying hardware, it is important to confirm that host systems support SAS 12Gbps to ensure full compatibility with this drive.

What is the spindle speed of the Dell 400-BTBM 16TB drive?

The Dell 400-BTBM operates at 7200RPM. This spindle speed is widely used for capacity-oriented enterprise hard drives and provides a balance between performance and storage density. Knowing the 7200RPM rating helps engineers classify the drive within appropriate workload tiers and performance expectations.

What form factor does the Dell 400-BTBM hard drive use?

The 400-BTBM is a 3.5-inch hard drive in a hot-plug form factor. This means it is designed to fit 3.5-inch bays in compatible systems and can be inserted or removed from those hot-plug bays without shutting down the server or storage chassis. This form factor is standard in many enterprise platforms.

Is the Dell 400-BTBM suitable for hot-plug drive bays?

Yes, the Dell 400-BTBM is described as a 3.5-inch hot-plug hard drive. This indicates it is intended for use in hot-plug capable bays where drives can be swapped while the system remains powered on. This capability is important in environments that require continuous operation during drive maintenance or replacement.
