Dell 1.92TB 2.5-inch SAS 12Gbps SSD — 1FGWG

A 1.92TB SAS SSD in the 2.5-inch form factor on a 12Gbps SAS interface, sold under Dell part number 1FGWG, maker model KRM6VRUG1T92.

A drive needs the tray or caddy that matches the server generation to sit in a hot-plug bay. It is meant for PowerEdge servers and PowerVault arrays with 2.5-inch SAS bays. In a hot-plug bay with a redundant RAID level, a failed disk can usually be swapped while the server keeps running. Once a replacement is fitted, the RAID controller rebuilds the array onto it, and larger drives take longer to rebuild. A spare of the same model cuts the time an array spends degraded when a drive fails. Flash drives like this suit boot volumes, virtual machine datastores and database logs, where access time matters more than raw capacity. As a read intensive drive it is rated for read-heavy workloads. SAS drives need a SAS controller or host bus adapter; a 12Gbps drive also works on a 6Gbps SAS controller at the lower speed. Matching the Dell part number 1FGWG against your system's parts list is the surest way to confirm the drive fits.

This certified refurbished drive has been inspected and bench-tested in Johannesburg, with any stored data wiped.
