Capacity and interface

The HPE 3PAR M6170 is a 450GB 2.5 inch internal hard drive with a SAS 6Gb/s interface spinning at 10000 RPM. It is designed for enterprise storage arrays and servers that require high-performance block access.

Average seek time

The 3.5ms average seek time reduces latency for transactional workloads and database applications. The 10K spindle speed supports sustained throughput for mixed read-write patterns in dense 2.5 inch bays.

Installation notes

The drive uses a standard 2.5 inch SAS connector and fits compatible HPE 3PAR drive carriers. Installation requires a carrier or backplane that accepts 2.5 inch SAS drives; it will not fit 3.5 inch bays without an adapter.

Questions about this item

How often does the 10000 RPM mechanism in the HPE 3PAR M6170 450GB drive need replacement?

Enterprise SAS drives are rated for continuous operation; the 10000 RPM spindle and bearings are designed to last the warranty period without scheduled replacement.

What limit appears first when the QR494A runs sustained writes at 6Gb/s SAS?

The 3.5 ms average seek time and 10000 RPM rotational latency set the random I/O ceiling before the 6Gb/s interface saturates.

How much heat and noise does the 2.5" 450GB 10K SAS drive produce under all-day load?

The 2.5" form factor and 10000 RPM spindle keep power draw modest; typical enterprise enclosures dissipate the heat with standard forced-air cooling.
