900 GB 10K SAS drive for enterprise servers

This HPE 2.5 inch hard drive delivers 900 GB of storage on a 6 Gb per second SAS interface spinning at 10000 RPM. It ships new with a Smart Carrier tray attached for hot-swap installation in supported server bays. The small form factor fits dense chassis where 3.5 inch drives cannot be used.

Suited for transaction-heavy workloads

The drive targets enterprise and midline applications that demand high IOPS and data integrity over a SAS link. Buyers needing larger capacities or lower-cost archival storage should evaluate other models. Systems without SAS backplanes or hot-swap cages cannot use the Smart Carrier tray.

SAS 6 Gb per second interface

The single specification that decides fit is the 6 Gb per second SAS connection; the host controller and backplane must support this exact speed and protocol for the drive to operate.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 900 GB capacity or a different size for my server?

This drive is only offered in a 900 GB capacity, so select it if that matches your storage requirement; otherwise look for another model with the capacity you need.

What does the 10000 RPM spindle speed mean once the drive is installed in a server?

The 10000 RPM rotation provides low latency and high IOPS for transaction-heavy workloads such as databases or virtualization.

What does the SAS 6 Gb/s interface cap in real use?

The SAS 6 Gb/s interface sets the maximum bus transfer rate, so sustained throughput cannot exceed the link speed even at peak spindle performance.
