450 GB SAS drive for HP StoreEasy 3830

This 2.5 inch internal hard drive delivers 450 GB of storage on a 6Gb/s SAS interface. It spins at 10000 rpm and is built as an HP Qualified Option for the StoreEasy 3830 Gateway Storage Blade. The drive is new and ships with a SmartDrive carrier.

Hot-pluggable SmartDrive carrier

The unit uses a 2.5 inch form factor and supports hot-plug installation, allowing drive changes without powering down the enclosure. Its SmartDrive carrier mates directly with the StoreEasy 3830 blade slots, so no extra caddy or adapter is required. A single SAS port handles both data and power connections.

6Gb/s SAS interface limit

The 6Gb/s SAS link caps maximum throughput at that signalling rate, so sustained transfers cannot exceed the bus bandwidth. The 10000 rpm spindle provides low latency for random workloads, yet the mechanical design still bounds peak sequential speed. Buyers who need more storage capacity or a faster interface must select a different drive.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the 6Gb/s SAS interface cap at in practice?

The 6Gb/s SAS link tops out at six gigabits per second, so the drive cannot exceed that bandwidth.

What physical space does the 2.5" form factor need to fit?

It requires a standard 2.5-inch internal bay and uses the SmartDrive carrier for tool-less insertion.

How is the hot-pluggable drive installed, and what step is often missed?

Slide the carrier into the bay until the latch clicks; the common miss is not pushing far enough to engage the SAS connector fully.
