General Compatibility
The 00Y5148 IBM 4TB 7.2K RPM SAS 6GBPS Hard Drive is generally compatible with servers and storage systems that use the SAS interface and support 6 Gbps data transfer speeds. This includes most IBM and Lenovo servers, as well as other brands that are SAS-compatible. It is also compatible with storage systems such as the IBM DS3500, DS3512, and DS3524. It is important to check the specific compatibility with your system before purchasing, as compatibility can vary depending on the specific model and configuration of your server or storage system.
Form Factor
The form factor of a hard drive refers to the physical size and shape of the drive. The 00Y5148 IBM 4TB 7.2K RPM SAS 6GBPS Hard Drive has a 3.5-inch form factor, meaning that it is designed to fit into a 3.5-inch drive bay in a computer or server. This is the most common form factor for internal hard drives and is compatible with most desktop computers and servers. The 3.5-inch form factor allows for larger storage capacity and faster data transfer speeds compared to smaller form factors like 2.5-inch drives.
