300 GB 10K SAS drive

This HPE 492620-B21 is a 300 GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 10000 rpm with a 3Gb/s SAS interface. It is built for server and blade environments where hot-plug capability and dual-port SAS connectivity are required.

Suits ProLiant blade and rack servers

The drive is qualified for BladeSystem ProLiant blades including BL465c G5 and BL685c G5 series, plus DL385 G5p, DL585 G5 and DL785 G5 rack servers. It also fits HP StorageWorks 50 and 70 Modular Smart Arrays. It is not for buyers who need a 3.5-inch form factor, a different interface, or a drive qualified for non-HPE platforms.

3Gb/s SAS interface decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 3Gb/s SAS interface standard. Controllers or backplanes limited to slower SAS speeds or different protocols will not support this drive at its rated performance.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5" form factor fit my ProLiant BL465c G5 drive bay?

The 2.5" form factor matches the drive bays in the listed ProLiant BL465c G5, BL685c G5, DL385 G5p, DL585 G5 and DL785 G5 servers, plus the MSA 50 and 70 arrays.

How do I install the dual-port SAS drive without losing the redundant path?

Insert the drive into a hot-pluggable bay while the server is running; the dual-port SAS interface connects to both backplane paths automatically — do not disable multipath software before seating the drive.

When should I plan to replace the 10000 rpm SAS mechanism?

Enterprise 10000 rpm SAS drives typically reach their rated workload limit after five years of continuous operation; monitor SMART reallocated-sector counts and schedule replacement before the counter approaches the vendor threshold.
