How we pick replacements
Every recommendation above was selected using these criteria:
- Drop-in compatibility — same form factor (2.5"/3.5", PCIe slot, SFP port, etc.), so it fits the original chassis without modification
- Equivalent or better performance — matched on RPM/IOPS/speed/throughput, never downgraded
- Same-brand-preferred — we list the OEM-equivalent first when available, then trusted aftermarket
- Warranty coverage — 90-day Pro Disk warranty on every part, with 1-year option for B2B
- In stock today — never recommend a part that is on backorder
