HP 3TB 7200RPM SATA Desktop Drive

This HP internal hard drive delivers 3TB of storage in a standard 3.5in form factor. It spins at 7200RPM and connects through a SATA 3Gb/s interface. The unit ships new and includes a Smart Carrier caddy for direct installation in compatible bays.

Suited for bulk storage in compatible HP systems

The drive fits desktop chassis with 3.5in bays that accept a SATA 3Gb/s device and the supplied Smart Carrier tray. It is not intended for laptops or small-form-factor units that require 2.5in drives. Builders whose platform needs a 6Gb/s SATA link should verify controller support before purchasing.

Interface speed decides fit

The SATA 3Gb/s connection sets the maximum transfer ceiling for this model. If the host controller only negotiates at that rate, the drive will operate at its specified throughput. Systems requiring a higher bus speed must use a different drive.

Questions about this item

Will this 3.5" SATA 3Gb/s drive fit in a standard desktop bay and connect to a SATA port on my motherboard?

Yes, the 3.5-inch form factor fits a standard desktop drive bay, and the SATA 3Gb/s interface connects directly to any motherboard SATA port using a standard SATA data cable and a SATA power connector from the power supply.

If my motherboard only has SATA 6Gb/s ports, will this 3Gb/s HP drive still work at its rated 7200 RPM speed?

The drive is backward compatible with SATA 6Gb/s ports and will operate at its full 7200 RPM rotational speed; the interface simply runs at the lower 3Gb/s link rate, which does not affect the spindle speed.

How can I confirm the drive is healthy and recognised as a 3TB volume after installation?

Enter the system BIOS or UEFI to verify the MB3000EBUCH model appears with the correct 3TB capacity, then initialise the disk in the operating system and run a SMART self-test to check for errors.
