Quick Answer: Will the FXX35HSCAR work with my RAID controller?

The FXX35HSCAR operates with any standard SAS/SATA/NVMe-compatible RAID controller (Dell PERC, HPE Smart Array, LSI/Broadcom MegaRAID, Adaptec, IBM ServeRAID, Lenovo ThinkSystem RAID). Mixing this drive in the same RAID volume with drives of different speed/capacity is supported but never recommended.

How fast does the FXX35HSCAR ship?

FXX35HSCAR orders placed before 3 pm ET ship the same business day from US warehouses. Delivery is next business day to most metro ZIPs via FedEx/UPS overnight; ground delivery covers remaining US in 1-4 business days.

Common Use Cases for FXX35HSCAR

The FXX35HSCAR is deployed by US enterprises, MSPs, government, and education customers across multiple infrastructure scenarios. Below are the most common deployment patterns Pro Disk Network sees in real-world orders.

  • Veeam Backup Repository — Cost-optimised backup target for Veeam B&R, Rubrik, or Cohesity primary backup tier. RAID 6 over 8–24 drives delivers 100+ TB usable per server.
  • Splunk Warm/Cold Tier — Appropriate for Splunk warm/cold/frozen indexes where ingest write rates are below 200 MB/s per node. Avoid for hot-tier indexes — use NVMe instead.
  • File Server / SMB Shares — General-purpose Windows Server / Samba shares for departmental file storage. RAID 5 for capacity, RAID 10 for IOPS-sensitive workloads.
  • Object Storage (Ceph / MinIO) — JBOD presentation behind Ceph OSDs or MinIO erasure-coded pools. Mix with NVMe metadata drives for production object stores.

Pros & Cons of FXX35HSCAR

Pros

  • Direct-to-rack shipping on multi-pack orders
  • Sequential serial-number bundling for cluster builds

Cons

  • Not enterprise NVMe — sub-100 µs latency workloads need a different SKU
  • Bulk capacity is the value play, not raw IOPS
  • Larger orders may ship via LTL freight (signature required)

How to Pick the Right Drive Capacity for Your Use Case

For VMware vSAN deployments, the FXX35HSCAR is best deployed in the capacity tier with NVMe cache drives in front. Size the cache layer at 10% of usable capacity for write-intensive workloads and 5% for read-leaning workloads. For Veeam backup repositories, plan around 1.5× the size of your protected estate to allow for incremental forever chains plus synthetic fulls. Splunk warm tier sizing should follow the daily ingest rate × retention days × 1.6 compression overhead.

Drive Health Monitoring: SMART, Workload Rating, and Predictive Failure

For VMware ESXi 8 hosts, enable vSphere's predictive-failure analysis on the FXX35HSCAR via the host's storage device list. The host queries SMART on a regular cadence and surfaces yellow/red warnings in vCenter before the drive fails outright. On Linux, use smartctl piped to your monitoring system; on Windows Server, Storage Spaces exposes health state directly in Server Manager.
