It is strongly recommended that you use vSAN ReadyNodes. However, if you choose to Build Your Own vSAN solution then you must confirm that your components including drives are supported by the OEM server manufacturer.
This drive is a Dell supported component. If this drive is for a vSAN deployment with a Dell server and H730 controller to avoid a known disk failure issue please follow the deployment guidance detailed here: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2109665
