6TB Midline Hard Drive for Servers
This HPE midline hard drive delivers 6TB of storage on a 3.5in SATA 6Gb/s interface spinning at 7200RPM. It uses 512e formatting and ships with a Smart Carrier tray for hot-swap bays. The unit is new and covered by a one-year manufacturer warranty.
Suits Bulk Storage Arrays.
The drive fits servers and storage enclosures that accept 3.5in hot-swap SATA bays and need high capacity at moderate cost. Buyers who need low-latency random access or sustained write throughput beyond what a 7200RPM mechanical drive provides should consider solid-state alternatives.
Verify Bay Compatibility and Controller Support
Confirm that your chassis accepts 3.5in hot-swap trays and that the backplane or RAID controller supports SATA 6Gb/s drives with 512e sector emulation. Check available drive slots and power budget before ordering.

Questions about this item
Does my server need a 3.5in hot-swap bay with a SATA 6Gb/s backplane for this drive to work?
Yes, the drive is a 3.5in SATA 6Gb/s midline unit designed for hot-swap bays and it ships with the HPE Smart Carrier caddy that locks into those bays.
Will this 7200RPM 6TB drive run on a controller that only supports SATA 3Gb/s?
The SATA 6Gb/s interface is backward compatible with 3Gb/s controllers, so the drive will operate at the lower link speed while keeping its 6TB capacity and 7200RPM spindle.
How can I confirm the drive is healthy after installing it in the Smart Carrier?
Check that the carrier LED shows normal activity, then run a SMART self-test and verify the drive reports 6TB capacity with 512e formatting at 7200RPM.
