HP 146 GB SAS drive

The HP EG0146FAWHU is a 146 GB internal hard drive spinning at 10000 RPM on a 2.5 inch SAS 6 Gb/s interface. It ships with a Smart Carrier caddy for hot-plug installation in compatible server bays. The drive targets administrators who need a small-capacity, high-spindle-speed disk for legacy arrays or replacement scenarios.

Sustained workload behaviour

At 10000 RPM the drive delivers consistent rotational latency for random I/O patterns typical of database logs or transaction volumes. Dual-port SAS provides path redundancy so a single controller or cable failure does not interrupt access. The mechanical design is rated for continuous operation in multi-drive enclosures.

Deciding specification

The 146 GB capacity is the limiting factor; workloads requiring more space per spindle must use larger drives or add additional units. Buyers who need more storage per drive bay cannot use this model. The 6 Gb/s SAS interface speed is fixed and cannot be upgraded.

Questions about this item

How much heat and noise does the 10000RPM SAS drive produce during continuous operation?

The 10000RPM spindle generates typical enterprise-level heat and audible seek noise; ensure your chassis airflow matches the 2.5" SFF form factor.

What controller or backplane must I already have for the dual-port 6Gb/s SAS interface?

A SAS HBA, RAID card or server backplane with 6Gb/s dual-port support and 2.5" SFF drive bays is required.

Will this 2.5" SAS drive work in my older 3Gb/s SAS enclosure?

The 6Gb/s interface negotiates down to 3Gb/s, so it functions in legacy SAS backplanes at the lower link speed.
