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
