Hello,
Dell only tests certified drives in their arrays. Also depending on the firmware a non Dell drive may not work at all. Low profile drives tend to be better overall. Cooler and better airflow.
So you can try it but it is a risk. Also the performance of that drive might be slower than the others.
Hopefully you are running RAID6?
Regards,
Don
