## Long description

The Constellation 7200 2.5" 15mm hard drive delivers nearline storage in a compact chassis for direct-attached or tiered storage environments. The 500GB SAS model balances capacity and efficiency, offering low power consumption without sacrificing enterprise-class reliability, vibration tolerance and data integrity. Available in SAS and SATA interfaces, this drive supports 6Gbps SAS 2.0 connectivity and optional government-grade self-encryption on SAS models.
Advantages
Designed for enterprise use, the Constellation 7200 provides the lowest operating power among comparable drives and additional PowerChoice™ options to reduce energy use during idle periods. As the first 2.5", 15mm business-critical drive, it fits more server and storage slots while delivering nearline performance that at system level can exceed twice the throughput of typical 3.5" HDDs. The drive also offers best-in-class rotational vibration tolerance and is available with self-encrypting (SED) capabilities on SAS models.

How to use
Install the Constellation 7200 in a compatible 2.5" server or storage enclosure supporting 15 mm drives and the chosen interface (SAS or SATA). Configure the drive within your RAID or storage tiering solution according to vendor guidelines. For SAS models, enable encryption if required and ensure firmware is current. Use PowerChoice™ settings through the system management interface or drive utilities to optimize power consumption during low activity periods.
Recommendations
Use this drive for high-density nearline storage, backup and restore, video surveillance, blade and rack servers, and other 24x7 enterprise applications where low power, compact form factor and strong vibration tolerance are important.
