Let's get rolling. The Dell PowerEdge R720xd supports three types of drives: Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS), Serial ATA (SATA) and Solid State Drives (SSD). SAS drives have speeds of 10K to 15K RPM. SATA drives operate at speeds of 7.2K RPM. SSDs can run at speeds 3GB/s or 6GB/s. All chassis options for the R720xd accept 2.5” drives. There is no option to use 3.5” drives. For SAS, the max capacity per drive that you can install is 2.4TB. For SATA, the max capacity per drive that is supported is 2TB. Lastly, for SSDs, the max capacity per drive you can install is 7.68TB. These capacities are the largest we’ve been able to use while testing the R720xd. If you’ve been able to put in larger capacities, let us know in the comments below!
We will also show you how to install a new drive into your R720xd. Installing drives into your system is very easy since the drives are hot swap, meaning you can install a drive while the server is running. We will also go over how to test your drives with Dell Diagnostics and HD Sentinel. Dell Diagnostics will test more than just the drives, but we will utilize this test to make sure our drives are performing well. Dell will provide an amber light for predictive failure. This is very common on 15K SAS drives because their bearings wear out over time. HD Sentinel is great for checking the Health Scores and Power On Hours for drives.
