Lenovo 4TB 7.2K SATA 3.5" Enterprise HDD 00XH226 02YH047

What it's for

This is a 4TB, 7200 RPM, SATA 6Gb/s enterprise hard drive built for Lenovo server and storage platforms — the drive to spec when a job needs mid-capacity storage that runs continuously rather than a desktop disk pressed into service.

Where it fits on a job

• CCTV recording servers — 7.2K spindle speed and enterprise build suit continuous-write surveillance storage rather than intermittent desktop use.
• File and backup servers — 4TB per drive gives a predictable building block when sizing an array to a client's retention requirement.
• RAID arrays — designed for multi-drive deployment, so it's a sensible match when redundancy and rebuild reliability matter more than raw single-disk capacity.
• Small data centre and virtualised environments — general enterprise workloads and sequential data operations are the target use case, not burst gaming or single-user desktop loads.

Key specs

Selecting for a project

For a RAID build, match spindle speed and interface across all drives in the array rather than mixing this with unrelated disk classes — consistency across the array is what keeps rebuild behaviour predictable.
