Key Features
10K SAS HDDs are designed for enterprise environments demanding a balance between high rotational speed (10,000 RPM), high throughput via the SAS interface, and capacity, placing them above 7200 RPM drives but often below 15K RPM drives in raw speed while offering higher density than 15K drives. Modern versions often integrate features like Self-Encrypting Drives (SED), hybrid NAND caching (e.g., TurboBoost), and advanced reliability features.
