HPE 872481-B21 internal hard drive 10000

Detailed Specifications

The HPE 872481-B21 is an enterprise-grade, hot-swappable hard drive engineered for high-performance and reliability in demanding 24/7 data center environments. It is designed specifically for HPE ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10 servers, providing a seamless fit and optimized performance for mission-critical workloads such as database management, transaction processing, and big data analytics. This drive solves the need for rapid data access and uncompromising integrity in I/O-intensive applications. At its core, this drive combines a 1.8 TB storage capacity with a 10,000 RPM spindle speed, delivering swift access to stored data. The 12Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface provides a high-throughput connection to the server backplane, doubling the data transfer rate of previous 6Gb/s SAS drives and ensuring that I/O bottlenecks are minimized during peak workloads. A key security feature is the HPE Digitally Signed Firmware, which prevents unauthorized access and malicious attacks by ensuring the drive's firmware is authentic and trusted. Intended for use in space-constrained server chassis, the drive's 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF) allows for greater storage density. It comes mounted in an HPE Smart Carrier (SC), which uses intuitive, icon-based LEDs to display drive status, simplifying maintenance and reducing the risk of human error during replacement. Management is streamlined through its integration with HPE server management tools, allowing administrators to monitor drive health and performance as part of the overall infrastructure.
