HPE 858594-B21 1TB SATA Midline Hard Drive
Overview
The HPE 858594-B21 is a 1TB SATA hard disk drive engineered to deliver reliable and economical data storage for HPE ProLiant server environments. This drive is specifically designed for non-mission-critical applications where cost-effective capacity is a primary driver. It provides a dependable solution for data backups, archiving, and other secondary storage workloads that demand a balance of performance and long-term reliability without the expense of enterprise-class SSDs. By integrating seamlessly with ProLiant management tools, it ensures predictable performance and uptime. This 3.5-inch Large Form Factor (LFF) drive features a 6 Gb/s SATA interface and a rotational speed of 7200 RPM, providing consistent throughput for sequential read/write operations. These specifications make it well-suited for handling large blocks of data, which is typical in backup and archival scenarios. The drive is classified as a midline HDD, meaning it is built to handle workloads with a moderate duty cycle, offering a significant advantage in durability and reliability over standard desktop-class drives when deployed in a 24x7 server environment. Designed for operational simplicity, the drive comes mounted in an HPE SmartCarrier (SC), which uses intuitive icon-based LEDs to provide an immediate visual status of the drive's health, preventing accidental data loss during maintenance. This hot-pluggable carrier allows for tool-free installation and removal, simplifying upgrades and replacements within compatible HPE ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers. Its native integration ensures that firmware and health monitoring are fully supported within the server's management ecosystem, streamlining administration.
