Why should I buy a Dell Upgrades over a third-party part?
Why choose Dell drives?
- Dell drives are robust, built by premium manufacturing processes and rigorously tested for maximum reliability.
- We specify and control the manufacture of our drives’ firmware and hardware subcomponents to ensure compatibility and add additional capability to reduce the costs of maintenance.
- Dell’s drive reliability frequently is higher than the reliability of other drive suppliers.

Solid State Drives vs. Hard Disk Drives
SSD
- Excel in speed, high performance, Input/Output requirements.
- High reliability due to lack of spinning disks.
- Go through a rigorous validation process before they are ever considered as additions to the PowerEdge server portfolio.

HDD
- Best when used as part of a complete storage strategy that balances cost per gigabyte, capacity, application needs and performance.
- Lower price-to-capacity, which can be most beneficial for large-capacity workloads or applications requiring large amounts of storage used for data such as archives, disk backups, image libraries or logs.
Storage Drive Types
- Solid State SAS and SATA Drives: Fast storage medium for random IO.
- 10K & 15K SAS Hard Drives: Performance and availability for performance optimized applications.
- 7.2K SAS & SATA Hard Drives: High capacity and exceptional $/GB for capacity optimized applications.
- Entry Drives: Least expensive drives used in applications where low usage and limited total number of drives are applicable. Due to restrictions on use, these drives are available in a small number of systems and configurations.
