Questions buyers ask about this part
Will the 900GB AL14SE fit my server?
This is a 2.5" SFF part on 12Gb/s SAS. It fits any bay wired for 12Gb/s SAS with dual-port SAS routing. Send us your server model and we will confirm backplane support, firmware level and any bracket or caddy required before you order. That check is part of every order we ship.
Should I take the 900GB or the 1.2TB?
They are the same drive line in a different capacity, with the same 12Gb/s SAS and 2.5" SFF. The 1.2TB gives you 1.3x the capacity per bay. Where bays are the constraint (a full backplane, or a rack you cannot grow), the larger capacity is usually cheaper per usable terabyte once you count the chassis it saves. Ask us for both on one quote and compare.
Is this Toshiba part genuine, and is the warranty intact?
Yes. We supply through authorized distribution only, so the part carries the full Toshiba manufacturer warranty and its firmware update path stays supported. No grey-market stock, no re-labelled drives, no voided warranties.

The listed price is per unit and indicative; tiered pricing applies at quantity. We accept purchase orders from qualified businesses, government and defence agencies, and educational institutions, with net terms and consolidated invoicing available.

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