Description

Discover precision storage designed for demanding enterprise environments with the Total Micro 300 GB Hard Drive. Built as an internal 2.5" SAS drive, it blends compact form with the speed and reliability needed for data centers, servers, and heavy workloads. With a 300 GB capacity and a spindle speed of 15,000 RPM, this drive delivers fast I/O and low latency ideal for mission-critical applications, databases, virtualization hosts, and high-transaction environments. The 2.5" form factor makes it a perfect fit for dense server racks, enterprise storage arrays, and hot-swappable drive bays, where space efficiency and performance must work in tandem. Whether you’re refreshing an aging array, expanding a storage pool, or deploying a high-performance OS/boot drive in a mission-critical server, the Total Micro 300 GB SAS drive is engineered to maximize productivity while maintaining tight control over noise, heat, and power consumption in a data-center setting.

  • Ultra-fast 15,000 RPM spindle speed delivers higher IOPS and reduced latency for I/O-intensive workloads, enabling quicker data access and faster application response times in databases, OLTP systems, and transaction-heavy environments.
  • Compact 2.5" internal form factor fits perfectly in servers, storage arrays, and backplanes, enabling denser deployments and easier hot-swapping in maintenance windows or scale-out architectures.
  • SAS interface provides robust enterprise data transfer, improved error detection and correction, and higher reliable queue depth compared to consumer-grade drives, making it suited for concurrent multi-user access and heavy-read/write workloads.
  • Efficient and reliable for continuous operation in data-center/rack environments, with design considerations that favor predictable performance, steady throughput, and long-term endurance under sustained workloads.
  • Ideal for OS drives, tiered storage, or scratch/log space in enterprise systems, balancing fast access with controlled capacity to optimize overall storage tiering and workload distribution across your fleet.

how to install Total Micro 300 GB Hard Drive

  • Power down the system and ground yourself to prevent static discharge before handling the drive.
  • Open the server chassis and locate an available 2.5" drive bay connected to a SAS backplane or controller.
  • Slide the drive into the bay and secure it with screws or a tool-less mounting mechanism provided by your chassis or drive cage.
  • Connect the SAS data cable from the drive backplane or controller to the drive and attach the power connector from the backplane or power supply.
  • Power on the system, access BIOS/UEFI or your RAID/control software, confirm the drive is detected, initialize if required, and format or provision the drive according to your operating system or storage array configuration.
