Product overview
The Dell 500GB 5400RPM SATA 6Gb/s 2.5-in hard Drive is supplied under part number RFDHW. Replacing a failed drive means matching interface, form factor and firmware to the backplane it is going into. This is a SATA unit. Send us the server model and we will confirm the fit rather than leave you to check it.
Tell us the deadline you are working to and we will say whether it is achievable before you commit to it internally.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against RFDHW, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.

Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is RFDHW genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes. Supplied new and unopened, so the manufacturer warranty and firmware update path stay supported. No grey-market stock and no refurbished units sold as new.
- Will RFDHW work in my server?
- Send the server model or the shelf it is going into. Vendor-keyed firmware is the usual reason an identical-looking drive is rejected, so we check that alongside interface and form factor.
- Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
- Yes. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Bulk capacity usually sits behind the flash tier that feeds a training cluster rather than under it.
