400-BEJW – Dell 12TB 7200RPM SAS 12Gb/s 256MB Cache Hot-Pluggable 3.5-Inch Hard Drive

The Dell 400-BEJW 12TB Hard Drive is a high-capacity enterprise storage solution engineered for Dell PowerEdge servers and mission-critical data center environments. Featuring a 7200 RPM spindle speed, SAS 12Gb/s interface, 256MB cache, hot-pluggable functionality, and a 3.5-inch Large Form Factor (LFF), this hard drive delivers reliable performance, outstanding storage capacity, and enterprise-grade durability for demanding workloads.

With a massive storage capacity of 12TB, the Dell 400-BEJW hard drive is ideally suited for cloud storage infrastructures, backup and disaster recovery systems, virtualization platforms, software-defined storage (SDS), enterprise file servers, data warehousing applications, surveillance storage environments, and long-term archival repositories. Its large-capacity design allows organizations to efficiently manage growing data volumes while optimizing storage density and reducing operational costs.

The SAS 12Gb/s interface provides enterprise-class bandwidth, dual-port connectivity, advanced fault tolerance, and superior scalability. Compared to SATA-based drives, SAS technology delivers enhanced reliability, improved availability, and higher throughput, making it the preferred choice for mission-critical server and storage infrastructures.

Equipped with a 256MB cache, the drive improves system responsiveness by optimizing data buffering and accelerating read/write operations. Combined with the 7200 RPM rotational speed, it provides a balanced mix of performance, capacity, and energy efficiency suitable for large-scale enterprise storage deployments.

Its hot-pluggable design allows administrators to replace or upgrade drives without shutting down the server, minimizing downtime and simplifying maintenance procedures. The 3.5-inch Large Form Factor maximizes storage capacity per drive bay, enabling organizations to efficiently scale storage resources as business needs grow.

Built according to Dell’s rigorous enterprise standards, the Dell 400-BEJW hard drive is engineered for continuous 24/7 operation, delivering dependable performance, scalability, and long-term reliability in enterprise and data center environments.
