Dell Enterprise 2.4TB 10K Performance Server Hard Drive (4GDNY-CDN) – SAS 12Gb/s, 10000 RPM, CMR

The Dell Enterprise 2.4TB (4GDNY-CDN) is a 2.5-inch 10000 RPM SAS 12Gb/s server hard drive for Dell PowerEdge servers. It suits IT teams and resellers replacing failed drives or expanding RAID arrays with Dell-compatible storage that encrypts data at rest. Dell firmware keeps PERC RAID and iDRAC health reporting fully supported.

Dell-compatible capacity for PowerEdge servers.

Why PowerEdge Servers Need Dell-Qualified Drives

Dell PowerEdge servers and PERC RAID controllers work best with drives that carry Dell firmware. Non-qualified drives can trigger iDRAC warnings, lose health reporting or be flagged as unsupported in the array.

The Dell Enterprise 2.4TB is a Dell part designed for PowerEdge platforms, with SAS 12Gb/s connectivity and 10000 RPM operation plus self-encrypting security. At 2.4TB, it covers mainstream server capacity needs – shared files, databases or rolling backups – without paying for capacity you will not use.

Full Health Reporting in iDRAC and OpenManage

Dell firmware lets iDRAC and OpenManage monitor drive health and predictive failure, so replacements are planned rather than urgent.

Fast Replacement in Existing Arrays

The standard form factor lets you swap the drive into an existing RAID set and rebuild with minimal disruption.

Setup Instructions

How to Install the Dell Enterprise 2.4TB in a PowerEdge Server

1. Confirm the part is compatible with your PowerEdge model and drive bay type.
2. Fit the drive into a Dell carrier (if not already installed) and insert it into the bay.
3. Check iDRAC or the PERC controller to confirm detection and health status.
4. Rebuild the RAID set or create a new virtual disk, then verify the array is optimal.
