Dell 0377CF 300GB 15K RPM 12Gb/s SAS 2.5 inch hard drive, built by Seagate for Dell PowerEdge servers and RAID arrays.
This is a new 300GB 2.5 inch SAS hard drive with a 15,000 RPM spindle, made by Seagate and supplied under Dell part number 0377CF. It fits the small form factor drive bays of Dell PowerEdge servers and connects at 12Gb/s to current Dell PERC controllers and SAS HBAs, negotiating down to 6Gb/s on older backplanes. The 15K spindle gives lower rotational latency than 10K or 7.2K drives. That suits small random reads and writes: database transaction logs, boot and operating system volumes, and RAID sets built around fast spinning disks. Capacity is modest by current standards. Administrators and integrators in Doha and across Qatar buy this drive to rebuild a degraded array with a matching Dell part, or to keep a set of 300GB 15K disks consistent, rather than for bulk storage.
HDD-DELL-300G-15K-SAS-0377CF-NEWForm factor 2.5 inch SFFSpecification
Dell part 0377CF is a 12Gb/s SAS drive and is backward compatible with 6Gb/s SAS. On a 6Gb/s link the practical difference is small, because a single 15K spinning disk does not saturate it.
A SAS drive will not run on a SATA-only controller or an onboard SATA port, even though the connectors look similar. The reverse usually works: SAS controllers can normally run SATA drives. A 15K spindle turns 50 percent faster than a 10K drive, which cuts rotational latency and improves random I/O. Where capacity per bay matters more than seek time, a higher capacity 10K or nearline drive is the better choice.
Installation
Hot-plug bays in Dell PowerEdge servers take the drive in a Dell carrier that matches the server generation; reusing the carrier from the drive being replaced is the usual approach. In a redundant array on a hot-plug backplane, the failed drive can be pulled and this one inserted while the server is running. The PERC controller can then rebuild onto it, either automatically or once it is assigned as a hot spare, depending on controller settings. For a clean rebuild, match capacity, interface and the 15K spindle speed to the drives already in the set, because a virtual disk runs at the pace of its slowest member. Avoid mixing SAS and SATA drives, or 15K and 10K drives, in one virtual disk.

Ask on WhatsApp sales@serverdove.comWhat is Dell part number 0377CF?
0377CF is the Dell part number for a 300GB, 15,000 RPM, 12Gb/s SAS hard drive in the 2.5-inch small form factor. The drive mechanism is made by Seagate and supplied through Dell for use in PowerEdge servers. Using the Dell part number helps match the drive to existing disks in an array and to Dell's own parts records.
Will a 12Gb/s SAS drive work on a 6Gb/s SAS controller?
SAS is backward compatible, so a 12Gb/s SAS drive normally negotiates down and runs at 6Gb/s when connected to a 6Gb/s controller or backplane. For a spinning disk the practical difference is small, because a single 15K drive does not saturate a 6Gb/s link. Confirm that your controller and server firmware support the drive before deployment.
Can this drive be used in a SATA-only server?
No. SAS drives need a SAS controller or HBA and a SAS-capable backplane. A SATA-only controller or onboard SATA port cannot run a SAS drive, even though the connectors look similar. SAS controllers, by contrast, can usually run SATA drives, so the compatibility only works in one direction.
Why choose a 15K drive over a 10K drive?
A 15K spindle spins 50 percent faster than a 10K drive, which reduces rotational latency and improves random I/O. That matters for transaction logs, small databases and boot volumes. The trade-off is lower capacity per drive. If the array mainly holds large files or archives, 10K or nearline drives give more storage per bay.
Does this drive need a drive carrier?
Hot-plug drive bays in Dell PowerEdge servers require the drive to be fitted in a Dell carrier that matches the server generation. Check the product photographs and listing details for what is supplied, and confirm which carrier style your chassis uses before installing the drive.
Can I mix this drive with other 300GB drives in a RAID array?
RAID controllers generally accept drives of the same or larger capacity as replacements, but mixing rotational speeds or interface types in one virtual disk is best avoided because the array runs at the pace of the slowest member. For a clean rebuild, match capacity, interface and 15K spindle speed to the drives already in the set.
What does refurbished mean at ServerDove?
Off-lease or decommissioned enterprise hardware that we clean, test and reset in Doha. Every unit goes through POST, burn-in, memory and drive checks and a power-supply check, with firmware and BIOS returned to defaults and drives securely erased.
Can I ask about the exact unit before I buy?
Yes. Message us the SKU on WhatsApp and we will confirm the condition and configuration of the unit in stock, with photos if you want them.
How fast is delivery in Qatar?
Orders ship from Doha and arrive within one working day anywhere in Qatar. Delivery is free on orders over QAR 300.
Can I collect in person?
Yes, from Nuaija Office 7, Doha, usually within 24 hours of ordering. Choose pick-up at checkout and we will message you when it is ready.
What warranty is included?
A 6-month hardware warranty from the delivery date, covering the unit as supplied. If a part fails we repair or replace it. Full terms are on the warranty page.
What is your return policy?
If the unit arrives faulty or not as described, tell us and we will collect it and replace or refund it. Full terms are on the Refund Policy page.
Which payment methods do you accept?

Every unit we sell has already proven itself in a data centre. We test it again, grade it, and back it with a warranty before it leaves our stock.
Tested before it ships
POST, burn-in, memory and power-supply checks on every unit. Anything that fails is repaired or pulled from stock, not sold.
Same performance, lower cost
A Xeon runs the same workloads whether it is new or two years old. Spend the difference on more CPUs, memory or storage.
In stock, not on order
New enterprise hardware can take weeks or months to arrive. Ours is on the shelf in Doha and delivered across Qatar within a day.
Warranty and local support
Every unit is covered. Installation, configuration and hardware support are handled by our own team in Qatar, not a call centre abroad.
