5TB, 7.2K RPM, SATA, 3.5-inch — genuine Lenovo ThinkServer HDD, part number 00LA954. That's the spec set that decides whether it fits your build; here's what it means on the rack.
Key specs
- Capacity: 5TB
- Spindle speed: 7200 RPM
- Form factor: 3.5-inch
- Interface: SATA
- Part number: 00LA954
- Platform: Lenovo ThinkServer and compatible storage systems
Where it fits
This is an enterprise internal drive, not a consumer SATA disk — it's built for continuous operation in structured IT environments rather than intermittent desktop use. The 3.5-inch form factor drops straight into standard server drive bays across tower and rack-mounted chassis, and the SATA interface integrates with compatible server backplanes and storage controllers.
RAID and deployment notes
The drive is designed for deployment in multi-drive RAID arrays, giving redundancy and scalability rather than relying on a single spindle. At 7200 RPM it delivers stable throughput for sequential workloads — file serving, backup targets, and surveillance recording servers where sustained write performance across many hours matters more than peak burst speed.
For CCTV integrators specifying storage for NVR or recording-server builds, 00LA954 covers the mid-capacity tier: enough headroom for multi-camera continuous recording without the density (and cost profile) of larger nearline drives.
