**HGST Ultrastar SS200 1.92TB Enterprise SAS SSD — health-verified, ready to deploy.**
These drives were **pulled from working systems** and each one has been individually health-checked on an enterprise SAS RAID controller immediately before listing. Every drive reads clean: **zero media errors, zero grown defects, zero predictive-failure flags, and no SMART alerts.** All drives have been securely erased (full cryptographic erase) and are ready for immediate use.
**Remaining endurance — individually verified, not guessed.** Each drive's endurance counter was read directly from the drive via SCSI log pages. This lot spans **63–72% life remaining** (most drives ~67%). To put that figure in perspective: this model is rated at **1 drive-write-per-day for 5 years — roughly 3.5 petabytes of total write endurance**. That means even the most-worn drive in this lot retains about **2.2 petabytes (2,200 terabytes) of rated write endurance**. Writing a full 1 TB of data every single day, that is over **6 years of continuous write life** before reaching the rated endurance limit. Under typical read-heavy or mixed server, workstation, or homelab workloads, these drives offer a substantial amount of operational life.
**Why enterprise SAS instead of consumer SATA:**
- **Full power-loss protection (PLP)** — onboard capacitors flush in-flight writes on power loss; safe for ZFS SLOG/metadata, databases, and VM datastores- **MLC NAND** — endurance-class flash, not consumer QLC- **12Gb/s dual-port SAS** — twice the interface bandwidth of SATA, sustained enterprise write performance without the SLC-cache cliff consumer drives hit- **512-byte native sectors** — many datacenter-pull SAS drives come formatted at 520/528 bytes and won't work until reformatted; these are 512B and plug-and-play in any SAS HBA/RAID setup
**What you get:** one HGST Ultrastar SS200 1.92TB SAS SSD from the lot below. Each drive ships labeled with its serial number and measured remaining-life percentage.
| Serial | Life remaining ||---|---|| 0SY8K26A | 72% || 0SY8PAKA | 70% || 0SY8RJ4A | 68% || 0SY8K5AA | 67% || 0SY8PPWA | 67% || 0SY8RDWA | 67% || 0SY8LP0A | 66% || 0SY8J6RA | 64% || 0SY8P4RA | 64% || 0SY8K14A | 63% |**Note:** This is a SAS drive. It requires a SAS HBA or RAID controller — it will NOT work on a standard desktop SATA port. If you're not sure whether your system supports SAS, ask before buying.
Drives are securely packaged in anti-static bags with foam padding.
