HP 791394-002 8TB SAS Drive

The HP 791394-002 is an 8TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for desktop and server storage arrays. It connects through a SAS 12Gb/s interface and spins at 7200 RPM. This drive suits administrators who need high-capacity bulk storage in systems equipped with SAS controllers.

8TB capacity and 7200 RPM headroom

Eight terabytes provide ample room for large media libraries, backup repositories or near-line archives. The 7.2K spindle speed delivers consistent throughput for sequential workloads such as video ingest or batch processing. Random I/O performance will saturate well before the interface limit when serving many simultaneous small requests.

Smart Carrier tray included

The supplied Smart Carrier tray simplifies hot-swap installation in compatible HP drive bays. It provides tool-less mounting and status LEDs without extra cabling. No additional software, cables or mounting hardware are bundled with the drive.

Questions about this item

Will the 791394-002 8TB SAS 12Gb/s drive work with my existing 6Gb/s SAS backplane?

Yes, the 12Gb/s SAS interface negotiates down to 6Gb/s so the drive will operate on your current backplane at the lower link speed.

How can I verify the 791394-002 is running at the full 12Gb/s link rate after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or OS utility for a negotiated link speed of 12Gb/s and confirm the Smart Carrier LED shows normal activity without fault codes.

Does the 791394-002 ship with a mounting tray or do I need to buy a 3.5" SAS carrier separately?

The drive includes an HP Smart Carrier (SC tray) so no separate tray is required for compatible HP bays.
