Lenovo 900GB 10K 12Gbps SAS 2.5″ SFF Enterprise Hot-Swap Hard Drive

Overview

The Lenovo 00YK015 (associated with Retail/Option Part Number 7XB7A00026) is an enterprise-class, high-density 900 Gigabyte (GB) internal hard disk drive. Engineered specifically for late-generation Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, it combines a fast 10,000 RPM rotational spindle speed with a high-bandwidth 12 Gbps Serial Attached SCSI (SAS-3) interface.

This drive provides the ultra-low transactional latency and robust IOPS throughput required for multi-tenant virtualization, enterprise databases, and mission-critical cloud storage tiers. It comes mounted on Lenovo’s toolless, hot-swappable ThinkSystem G4HS (Generation 4 Hot-Swap) SFF drive carrier tray.
