LENOVO - 00AJ128 - 600GB 15K 6Gbps SAS 2.5" G3HS HDD

LENOVO 00AJ128 600GB 15K 6Gbps SAS 2.5" G3HS HDD (Refurbished)

The Lenovo 00AJ128 is a 2.5-inch SFF enterprise hard drive built for performance-oriented server and storage deployments. It combines 600GB capacity, a 15K RPM spindle speed, and a 6Gbps SAS interface—well suited for transactional workloads, virtualisation datastores, and mixed read/write applications where consistent latency matters in production environments.

Commonly used as a hot-swap SFF disk option in Lenovo System x and ThinkServer platforms, this drive is ideal for like-for-like replacements and lifecycle extension projects. It integrates cleanly with Lenovo backplanes and works alongside components such as a RAID CONTROLLER for redundancy and performance, and the correct CADDY to match your chassis and carrier format.

For buyers standardising spares across sites, staying within the LENOVO ecosystem helps keep media type, interface, and service procedures consistent across supported server families.

Key Features

Key specifications and deployment-relevant features for enterprise maintenance and upgrades:

• 600GB capacity to support OS volumes, hot data tiers, or fast application datasets in server and storage environments.
• 15K RPM rotational speed to deliver strong IOPS for databases, VMs, and mixed random workloads.
• 6Gbps SAS interface to integrate with enterprise SAS backplanes and SAS-capable controllers in supported systems.
• 2.5-inch SFF form factor to fit dense hot-swap drive bays in rack servers and storage shelves.
• Hot-swap enterprise drive option to simplify serviceability and reduce downtime during drive replacement in supported chassis.
• Compatibility with Lenovo System x and ThinkServer families to support like-for-like replacements (for example System x3650/x3550 and ThinkServer RD series).
• Designed for 24/7 duty cycles to suit data center and server room operations.
• Suitable for RAID arrays to improve availability and maintain predictable performance under disk failure scenarios.

Refurbished Quality and Warranty

This is refurbished hardware, cleaned and tested by technicians before entering stock to help reduce the risk of hardware defects. Refurbished drives are a practical choice for extending the lifecycle of existing infrastructure, reducing electronic waste, and controlling budget compared to buying new.

Direct Hardware Supply is an international supplier of refurbished IT hardware shipping worldwide from Denmark. This unit includes a one-year warranty from the date of purchase (batteries, tape drives and tape libraries include three months), and extended warranty options are available on request.

If your workload profile is shifting toward lower latency and higher random performance, consider a Lenovo-aligned SSD alternative while keeping the same enterprise integration approach.
