The IBM 43W7630 is a 1TB 7,200RPM SATA hard disk drive, 3.5-inch, dual-port, hot-pluggable, IBM feature code 5561, documented consistently across multiple specialist resellers for use in IBM’s DS3000/EXP3000 storage arrays as well as System x server bays. Its dual-port design lets it connect to two independent SAS/SATA paths for redundancy in dual-controller storage arrays, a feature that distinguishes it from the single-port SATA drives used in simpler server configurations. Genuine feature-5561 replacement drives are needed when expanding capacity or replacing a failed drive in an existing DS3000/EXP3000 array, since RAID rebuilds require a matching-capacity, matching-interface drive. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies IBM storage drives to support ongoing maintenance projects.
