  • RAID levels5
  • 12 installed 3.5" drives provide 6 TB capacity
  • RAID 5 protects data across all drives
  • Redundant power supplies maintain uptime
  • 12 expansion bays allow capacity growth
  • 3U rack form factor fits standard cabinets

HPE StorageWorks 6000 6 TB Hard Drive Array

This HPE StorageWorks 6000 array delivers 6 TB of installed capacity across twelve 3.5-inch drives in a 3U rack-mount chassis. It connects through Fibre Channel controllers and uses Serial ATA drive interfaces with RAID 5 support. Redundant power supplies are included for continuous operation in demanding storage environments.

Suited for SAN backup and deduplication workloads

The system scales to 122 TB usable with 2:1 hardware compression and offers accelerated deduplication licensing that retains up to 50 times more data on disk. Performance reaches 600 MB/sec for fast data protection in complex SAN environments. Buyers who need direct-attached storage without Fibre Channel infrastructure should consider other architectures.

Twelve-bay 3U form factor with redundant power

The array occupies 3U of rack space and weighs approximately 205 lb with all twelve bays populated. Every bay accepts 3.5-inch drives and the chassis provides redundant power supplies as standard. Confirm rack depth, power circuit capacity and Fibre Channel connectivity before deployment.

Questions about this item

What does the 6 TB total capacity mean once the array is running in a live SAN?

The 6 TB is the usable capacity after RAID 5 overhead across the twelve installed 3.5-inch drives, giving a single logical volume for backup or virtual library workloads.

What does the Fibre Channel controller cap in real throughput?

The Fibre Channel interface feeds the virtual library system up to 600 MB/s, which is the stated performance ceiling for backup and deduplication streams.

What physical space and weight must the rack allow for this 3U unit?

The chassis occupies 3U of rack height and weighs approximately 205 lb, so the cabinet must support that weight and provide the matching vertical clearance.
