Dell E Dell 2TB 7.2K RPM NLSAS 12Gbps 512n 3.5in Cabled hard drive

This is a Dell 2TB Near-Line SAS (NLSAS) hard drive spinning at 7,200 RPM over a 12Gbps SAS interface, in a 3.5-inch cabled (non-hot-plug) configuration with a 512n (512-byte native) sector format. NLSAS drives combine the high-capacity, lower-cost mechanics of enterprise SATA drives with a full SAS interface and command set, giving better reliability, dual-port connectivity options and command queuing than consumer SATA while costing less per terabyte than 15K SAS drives -- making them a common choice for bulk/nearline storage tiers in PowerEdge servers where capacity matters more than raw IOPS. Being a 'cabled' rather than hot-plug drive, it connects via an internal SATA/SAS data and power cable rather than sliding into a front hot-swap bay, so replacing it requires opening the server chassis.
