450GB 15000RPM SAS enterprise drive

This HP EF0450FATFE is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for enterprise servers and storage arrays. It spins at 15000RPM and connects through a 3Gb/s SAS interface. The unit ships new and includes a Smart Carrier caddy for hot-swap installation.

Suits SAS hot-swap bays; not for slower interfaces

The dual-port SAS connection and 15000RPM spindle suit workloads that demand quick, redundant access to 450GB of storage. Systems limited to slower interfaces or lower rotational speeds will not realise the drive's performance profile. Buyers needing larger capacities should consider higher-capacity models.

3Gb/s dual-port SAS interface decides fit

The drive presents a 3Gb/s SAS interface with dual ports for path redundancy. Confirm that the host controller or backplane supports this exact signalling rate and connector type before purchase. The included caddy fits standard 3.5-inch hot-swap trays.

Questions about this item

What does the 15000RPM spindle speed deliver in a live server?

The 15000RPM rotation keeps average latency near 2 ms, giving fast random read response for transactional workloads.

What does the SAS 3Gb/s interface limit in practice?

The SAS 3Gb/s link sets a 3 Gbps signalling ceiling, so the drive tops out at that bandwidth even on a faster backplane.

What does the included SMART CARRIER caddy fit?

The supplied SMART CARRIER tray matches standard 3.5 inch HP hot-swap bays for tool-less installation.
