4TB SATA 6.0Gb/s 7200 RPM Drive

This HPE internal hard drive provides four terabytes of storage in a 3.5-inch form factor. It connects through a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface and spins at 7200 RPM for consistent desktop performance. The unit ships new and includes a smart carrier for hot-plug installation.

Ideal for Bulk Storage Not for Speed-Critical Work

The drive suits users who need high-capacity mass storage for documents, media libraries or backup archives. Its rotational speed supports steady sequential throughput for large file transfers. Builders requiring low-latency random access for operating systems or active databases should consider solid-state alternatives.

SATA 6.0Gb/s Interface Decides Compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. The host system must provide a matching SATA data port and power connector for the drive to function. Verify that your motherboard or controller supports this standard before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will this 6.0Gb/s SATA drive work in my older system that only has SATA ports?

Yes, the SATA 6.0Gb/s interface is backward compatible with earlier SATA revisions, so the drive will operate at the highest speed both ends support.

How can I confirm the drive is running at 7200 RPM after installation?

Check the reported rotational speed in your BIOS, operating-system disk utility, or SMART monitoring tool; it should show 7200 RPM for this model.

Does the 846522-004 ship with a smart carrier tray, or do I need to buy one separately?

The drive includes the smart carrier (SC) tray shown in the specifications; no separate tray purchase is required for supported HPE bays.
