HPE 1.2TB 10K SAS server drive

The HPE 872479-B21 is a 1.2TB internal hard drive built for server environments. It uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and spins at 10000 RPM in a 2.5 inch form factor. This new drive targets administrators who need reliable storage for supported server platforms.

Sustained 10K RPM performance

The 10000 RPM spindle speed delivers consistent throughput for sustained workloads rather than only brief bursts. A SAS 12Gb/s interface maintains bandwidth during heavy I/O operations. This combination suits applications that demand steady read and write activity over long periods.

Verify SAS controller and bay fit

Confirm your server has a SAS controller that supports 12Gb/s operation and accepts 2.5 inch drives. Check that the chassis provides a compatible SFF bay and backplane connection. The drive is designed for server device support only and will not work in standard desktop systems.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 10000 RPM SAS drive draw during all-day operation?

The 1.2TB 10000 RPM SAS drive is built for server workloads and its 12Gb/s interface supports efficient data throughput for continuous use.

Does the 2.5" SAS drive need a specific backplane or controller to work in my server?

The drive uses a standard 12Gb/s SAS interface and 2.5-inch SFF form factor, so it fits any server bay and controller that support SAS 12Gb/s.

Will this 12Gb/s SAS drive run on an older 6Gb/s SAS backplane I already have?

The 12Gb/s SAS interface is backward compatible with 6Gb/s SAS backplanes, allowing the 1.2TB drive to operate at the lower link speed.
