Below are the part number of 900GB 15K 2.5inch SAS drives supported in PowerEdge R620. What controller you have on the server? If you have a PERC controller, you can either use iDRAC or PERC Configuration utility during POST to create RAID 1.

Sorry. It was my mistake. R620 support X4 2.5 backplane. In the link I provided it is captured as '2.5 inch (x4) SAS/SATA backplane'
