Powerful, reliable internal storage designed for enterprise workloads, the Cisco 6 TB NL-SAS 3.5" hard drive delivers large-capacity, nearline storage with fast SAS connectivity. Built for servers, storage arrays, and NAS environments, this drive combines ample space with dependable performance to support data centers, virtualization, backups, and large media libraries. The Near-Line SAS (NL-SAS) interface provides a balanced mix of throughput, reliability, and cost, making it a practical choice for bulk storage and archival tasks that require steady, sustained performance over long operating lifetimes.

  • High-capacity NL-SAS storage: 6 TB of durable, nearline storage designed to handle bulk data, backups, media libraries, and large-scale datasets. With ample space for millions of images, videos, documents, and virtual machine images, you can consolidate more data onto a single drive and reduce the number of spindles needed in your storage array.
  • 12Gb/s SAS interface for fast data transfer: This drive uses a modern SAS interface that supports high-bandwidth data transfers, enabling quicker reads and writes to support demanding workloads, data migration tasks, and streaming applications. It’s engineered to work with enterprise-grade SAS controllers and backplanes for consistent performance under load.
  • 3.5-inch internal form factor for servers and NAS: The standard 3.5" form factor fits most servers, storage enclosures, and networked attached storage systems. Its rugged design is optimized for continuous operation in data centers, with vibration tolerance and endurance suitable for 24/7 workloads common in enterprise environments.
  • 7200 RPM for dependable performance: With a 7200 RPM spindle speed, this NL-SAS drive offers strong sequential throughput and solid random access performance, which helps reduce bottlenecks in backup jobs, virtualization hosts, and database-backed applications. The balance of speed and capacity makes it suitable for mixed-use storage pools and hot-swappable arrays in supported chassis.
  • Enterprise-grade reliability and endurance: Designed to withstand the rigors of data-center workloads, the drive emphasizes long-term reliability, steady performance, and compatibility with common enterprise controllers. It’s optimized for continuous operation, large-scale storage deployments, and environments that require predictable behavior and consistent data integrity over time.

How to install Cisco 6 TB NL-SAS 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

Installing this drive in a compatible server, storage array, or NAS is straightforward. Follow these general steps to ensure a smooth deployment:

1) Power down the system and disconnect power cables to prevent accidental shocks. Open the enclosure or server chassis and locate an available 3.5-inch drive bay.
2) Insert the 6 TB NL-SAS drive into the bay and secure it with the mounting screws provided by the chassis.
3) Connect the drive to a compatible SAS/NL-SAS controller or backplane using a suitable SAS data cable and provide power via the enclosure’s drive power connector.
4) Power on the system and enter the RAID controller or operating system storage management interface to detect the new drive. If prompted, initialize or format the drive according to your storage policy and server guidelines.
5) Update firmware if a newer version is available and run standard health checks. Monitor SMART attributes and drive health through the management interface to ensure ongoing reliability in high-demand workloads.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What does NL-SAS mean?
    A: Near-Line SAS (NL-SAS) is a drive interface designed for bulk storage in servers and storage arrays. It combines the reliability of SAS with a nearline design to offer a cost-effective, higher-capacity storage solution suitable for backups, archives, and large datasets.
  • Q: Is this drive suitable for hot-swappable bays?
    A: Many enterprise enclosures support hot-swapping. Compatibility depends on your chassis, RAID controller, and backplane. Check your hardware documentation to confirm hot-swap support for 3.5" NL-SAS drives.
  • Q: What systems can use a 6 TB NL-SAS drive?
    A: Servers, storage arrays, and NAS devices that have NL-SAS/SAS interfaces and 3.5" drive bays can use this drive for bulk storage, backups, virtualization workloads, and large media repositories.
  • Q: Do I need a SAS controller to use this drive?
    A: Yes, a SAS controller or a SAS-enabled motherboard/RAID card is typically required to connect and manage 12Gb/s SAS drives in an enterprise environment.
  • Q: How much data can I store on 6 TB?
    A: Approximately 6,000 gigabytes of raw capacity, with usable space depending on formatting, file system overhead, and the specific data types stored.

It's okay
The table looks nice and works fine, but the quality is just average. Assembly took some time, and a few parts didn’t fit perfectly. Overall, it’s an okay product for the price.

Great value sturdy and Kid resistant
Color: White, Size: 22"d x 39.9"w x 18.1"h
Purchased 3 of these in May 2022 for part of an updating project for a vacation rental house in Panama City Beach FL. They were easy to assemble especially after the first one was done and assembling the remaining 2 was a breeze! Furniture takes a real beating especially from children in a vacation rental and has to be replaced more often than in a personal home. The low price of these coffee tables made them very attractive. It has been 1.5 years now since they were installed and there is absolutely no wear and tear showing on any of them. There are no ring marks on the tops from guests placing cold drinks that sweat that typically will damage tops of more expensive wood end tables. We also purchased matching coffee tables with the same experience.

What a great surprise!
Size: 8 Cube Shelf, Size: 8 Cube Shelf
Color me surprised. This is actually made of wood! Very smooth all the way around and the easiest assembly of this type of product I have ever encountered. I put a 9 cube Closetmaid together 7 months pregnant, sooo tedious with particle board splinters, I would have paid good money to have known about this company then. This is extremely stable, so much so that I have no fear moving it around, unlike the Closetmaid we have. The bins that come with it are nice quality, fit snugly into the cubes, and give it a nice look. Only issue I had, and I’m short so the leverage was the issue, were back panels. They are made of wood and fit snug, which is great, but that meant sliding them along the grooves was challenging until I stood it up on its end so I had better pressure and control. I’ll be using this one for homeschooling but I’ll definitely buy more for my library, these fit my bungalow upstairs perfectly. I’m going to sand some spots around the screws and stain it sometime.
