About the DL2400MM0159

The Seagate Exos DL2400MM0159 is a 2.4TB SAS hard drive built in a 2.5 inch form factor, spinning at 10,500 rpm and using a 12Gb/s SAS interface. This page covers the units of this specific part number that this store has tested and has in stock.

All 6 units in this batch passed a full test sequence that included sequential and random read/write benchmarking, an extended (long) self-test across the entire surface, SMART health checks for reallocated, pending and uncorrectable sectors, and power-on hours cross-checked against an independent on-drive log. Each drive was also sanitized using a NIST 800-88 crypto scramble method with read-back verification before being listed.

Measured power-on hours across the batch range from about 39,900 to 40,800, with a median near 40,750. In sequential benchmarking, median throughput was 274 MB/s for both reads and writes. One unit falls into the Standard Use tier and five fall into the Value tier based on recorded hours.

DL2400MM0159 questions

What is this drive typically used for?+

As a 2.4TB 10,500 rpm SAS drive, this model is suited to server and storage array roles such as general purpose storage, backup targets, and other capacity-oriented workloads that use a SAS interface.

What interface and form factor does this drive use, and will it fit my system?+

It uses a 12Gb/s SAS interface in a 2.5 inch form factor. It will work with systems and backplanes that support 2.5 inch SAS drives at 12Gb/s or compatible lower SAS speeds.

What does this store check on each unit before it is sold?+

Each drive undergoes a sequential and random read/write benchmark, a full extended self-test across the whole surface, a SMART health read for reallocated, pending and uncorrectable sectors, and a power-on hours check against the drive's internal log. Data is then sanitized using a NIST 800-88 method with read-back verification.

What do the Standard Use and Value tiers mean for this model?+

These tiers are based on recorded power-on hours: Standard Use covers drives with 20,000 to 40,000 hours, while Value covers drives with over 40,000 hours. In this batch, one unit falls into Standard Use and five fall into Value.

How consistent is performance across the tested units?+

Across the 6 units tested, median sequential throughput was 274 MB/s for both reads and writes, and all units passed every test in the sequence.
