Dell POWERVAULT MD1000: Technical Specifications Drives Connectivity Enclosure Management Modules Backplane Board Back-Panel Connectors

Technical Specifications

Drives

SAS hard drives up to 15 1-inch-by-3.5-inch SAS hot-plug hard drives (3.0 Gbps)

at speeds of 10K or 15K rpm (See your system readme file for

supported disk capacities.)

SATA hard drives up to 15 1-inch-by-3.5-inch SATA hot-plug hard drives (3.0 Gbps)
