What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against VD85W, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Endurance matched to the workload
We ask what the drive is being written to before quoting, because a read-intensive part on a write-heavy volume is a warranty claim waiting to happen.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is VD85W genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in Dell packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will VD85W work in my server?
Send the server or array model and the controller behind it. We check the carrier, the firmware family and whether the drive is on the platform's supported list, since mechanical fit is the easy part.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.
