HP DG072ABAB3 72GB 10000RPM SAS Drive

This new HP DG072ABAB3 is a 72GB 2.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 10000RPM with a SAS 3Gb/s single-port interface. It is built for hot-swap bays in servers or storage arrays that accept 2.5-inch SAS drives.

Suits SAS hot-swap bays needing 10K speed

It suits administrators replacing a failed drive in an existing SAS enclosure or expanding capacity in a 2.5-inch hot-swap chassis. It is not for systems that lack a SAS backplane or controller, or for workloads that require larger capacity than 72GB.

Single-port SAS 3Gb/s interface decides fit

The drive connects through a single SAS port running at 3Gb/s, so the host backplane or HBA must provide a matching SAS connector and signalling rate. Verify that your chassis and controller support single-port 2.5-inch SAS drives before purchase.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the DG072ABAB3 is spinning at 10000RPM after installation?

Listen for the characteristic high-pitched whine of a 10000RPM spindle and confirm the drive reports 72GB capacity in your RAID controller BIOS or operating system disk utility.

What is included with the DG072ABAB3 and what must I source separately?

The drive ships as a bare 2.5in SAS unit; you will need a compatible SAS backplane or HBA, mounting tray or caddy for your server chassis, and SAS data and power cables.

Which DG072ABAB3 version should I choose for a single-port 3Gb/s SAS array?

This model DG072ABAB3 is a single-port 3Gb/s SAS drive; select it when your controller or backplane uses single-port 3Gb/s SAS connections and you need 72GB at 10000RPM.
