The Cisco A03-D500GC3 is a 500GB 2.5-inch enterprise-class internal hard disk drive engineered for seamless integration and high-reliability performance within Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) server environments. Built with a 7,200 RPM rotational speed, a SATA III 6 Gbps interface, and a 64 MB cache buffer, this Small Form Factor (SFF) drive provides steady throughput for data-intensive business applications and server storage expansion.
Designed specifically for enterprise data centers, the A03-D500GC3 supports hot-plug (hot-swap) functionality, enabling IT administrators to replace or add drives without powering down the server or disrupting ongoing system operations. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range of 0°C to 60°C and supports multi-platform enterprise deployments across both Windows and Linux operating environments.
Available from DataDive, your trusted technology hardware supplier in Qatar, this original Cisco server component offers an optimal balance of capacity, energy efficiency, and operational durability. It is fully compatible with Cisco UCS C-Series rack servers—such as the UCS C200 M2 and C460 M1—making it an ideal upgrade or direct replacement choice for business infrastructure scalability.
