Lenovo 900GB 2.5" 10000RPM SAS 12Gb/s Hot Swap HDD

The Lenovo 00WG715 is a 900GB hard drive with a 2.5 inch form factor, created for enterprise servers that need a balance of speed, capacity and security.

The drive spins at 10,000 RPM and connects through a 12 Gb/s SAS interface, reaching sustained transfer rates up to 1.2 GB per second. This performance supports workloads such as online transaction processing, virtualization layers and analytics databases where quick access to data keeps applications responsive.

Data protection is handled by hardware based AES 256 bit encryption. Because the drive is self encrypting, information is secured the moment it is written, removing the overhead of software encryption. In Lenovo System x environments, encryption keys can be issued and rotated through Security Key Lifecycle Manager, allowing administrators to maintain consistent security policies across the rack.

The hot swap design lets technicians add or replace the drive without powering down the server. For data centers that operate under tight service-level agreements, this capability reduces maintenance windows and keeps critical services online.

Highlights:

• 900GB storage capacity
• 10,000 RPM spindle speed
• 12 Gb/s SAS interface
• AES 256 bit self-encrypting drive
• Compatible with SKLM for System x
