HP 300GB 10K SAS Drive

This HP 653955-001 is a 300GB laptop internal hard drive that spins at 10000 RPM and connects through a SAS 6Gb/s interface in a 2.5 inch form factor. It is built for enterprise environments where consistent throughput and hot-plug capability are required. The refurbished unit delivers the performance profile expected from a 10K SAS spindle.

Suits SAS-Only Bays

This drive suits servers and workstations that provide a native SAS backplane and can accept a 2.5 inch enterprise drive with a tray. It is not for systems that lack a SAS controller or that only support lower spindle speeds. Buyers needing larger capacities or solid-state latency should look elsewhere.

SAS 6Gb/s Interface Decides Fit

The single specification that decides compatibility is the SAS 6Gb/s interface. The host must present a physical SAS port and matching protocol support. Without that connection the drive cannot operate, regardless of its 300GB capacity or 10000 RPM speed.

Questions about this item

What SAS controller or backplane do I need to connect this 653955-001 drive?

This drive uses a SAS 6Gb/s interface, so the host system must provide a compatible SAS HBA, RAID controller or server backplane that supports 6 Gb/s signalling.

Can I keep my existing 3 Gb/s SAS expander when adding this 10000 RPM drive?

Yes, the 6Gb/s SAS link will negotiate down to 3 Gb/s automatically, letting the drive operate on older expanders or backplanes at the lower speed.

How can I verify the 300GB capacity and 10000 RPM speed are recognised after installation?

Check the drive details in your RAID controller BIOS, operating-system disk utility or SMART data; they should report 300GB capacity and a 10000 RPM rotational speed.
