Disco rígido IBM 500 GB 2,5 polegadas SATA 7200 rpm 42D0752

The IBM 500 GB 2.5" SATA 7200 RPM Slim-HS hard drive is a 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF) drive designed for use in systems that accept hot-swap or non-hot-swap drives. With 500 GB capacity and a 7200 RPM spindle speed, it uses a Serial ATA interface and fits compact servers, workstations, and laptop-style bays where a slim 2.5-inch drive is required.

Advantages

This 2.5-inch SATA HDD combines a 500 GB capacity with a 7200 RPM performance profile to deliver faster data access than typical 5400 RPM drives while maintaining a slim SFF form factor. It supports both hot-swap and non-hot-swap configurations depending on the host system, enabling flexible deployment in dense server or blade environments. The drive’s compact dimensions make it compatible with systems that require slim 2.5-inch drives.

Suitable for

• Compact servers and blade systems
• Workstations with 2.5-inch bays
• Laptops and small form factor desktops that accept 2.5" SATA drives
• Environments needing higher spindle speed for improved random access

Key specifications

• Capacity: 500 GB
• Form factor: 2.5-inch (Slim SFF)
• Interface: Serial ATA (SATA)
• Rotational speed: 7200 RPM
• Hot-swap support: depends on system backplane (supports hot-swap when used with compatible bays)

How to use

Install the drive into the appropriate 2.5-inch bay or sled in your server, workstation, or laptop following the host system’s installation procedure. Connect the SATA data and power cables where required, or insert the drive into a hot-swap bay if the chassis supports it. Initialize and format the drive in the operating system or RAID controller before storing data.

Recommendations

Use this 7200 RPM 2.5" SATA drive in systems that require a balance of capacity and performance in a slim SFF form factor; verify compatibility with your chassis or backplane for hot-swap operation and consider RAID configurations or backups for critical data.
