600 GB 10 000 RPM SAS drive

The HP 581286-S21 is a 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a 600 GB capacity and a 10 000 RPM spindle speed. It connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface and is supplied in new condition as an HP Qualified Option. The drive uses a hot-swap tray design for straightforward installation and removal.

Built for server storage arrays

This drive suits administrators expanding or repairing HP server storage arrays that require 6Gb/s SAS connectivity and 10 000 RPM performance. It is not for systems that lack a SAS backplane or hot-swap bay, nor for workloads needing solid-state latency or larger single-drive capacities.

SAS 6Gb/s interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the SAS 6Gb/s interface; the host must provide a matching SAS controller and backplane. Without that connection the drive cannot communicate, regardless of its 2.5-inch form factor or 600 GB capacity.

Questions about this item

Does my server backplane accept a 2.5" SAS drive with a 6Gb/s interface?

Yes, the 581286-S21 uses a standard 2.5" form factor and SAS 6Gb/s connection, so any backplane or controller supporting that interface will recognise the drive.

Will this 10000 RPM SAS drive work on a controller that only supports slower SAS speeds?

The drive is backward compatible with 3Gb/s SAS controllers, though it will operate at the lower link speed instead of its full 6Gb/s capability.

How can I verify the 600GB capacity and 10000 RPM speed after installation?

Check the drive properties in your RAID utility or operating system; it should report 600GB capacity and a rotational speed of 10000 RPM.
