HPE 599476-001 EG0300FBDSP 300 GB 10000 RPM 2.5" SAS switch module

Enterprise Storage Drive

The HPE EG0300FBDSP is a 300 GB 10000 RPM SAS hard drive built for 2.5 inch internal bays. It targets administrators who need reliable, hot-pluggable capacity for ProLiant arrays and compatible storage enclosures. The dual-port 6Gb/s SAS interface provides redundant paths for high-availability clusters. This new drive carries RoHS certification for environmental compliance.

Build Integration

The 2.5 inch small form factor fits dense server chassis and blade sleds without adapter brackets. Hot-plug support lets technicians replace the unit while the system remains online, avoiding downtime during maintenance windows. Dual-port SAS connectivity requires a compatible backplane or controller that presents two independent phys per slot. The drive draws power directly from the backplane, so no separate cabling is needed.

Sustained Operation

At 10000 RPM the spindle delivers consistent throughput for random I/O workloads such as databases and virtualisation logs. Dual-port architecture maintains data access if one path or controller fails during extended operations. The SAS interface handles command queuing efficiently under continuous load, reducing latency spikes compared to single-port designs. RoHS-compliant construction supports long-term deployment in regulated environments.
