1.2 TB SAS Enterprise Drive

This 1.2 TB SAS drive is built for HP server and storage arrays that demand 24/7 cycle duty. It arrives new in a genuine HP G7 tray with a 100% HP compatible enterprise-grade mechanism from WD, Seagate or HGST. The unit is not intended for PC use.

Integration Into Server Bays

The drive fits directly into HP G7 trays using the SAS 6 Gb-s interface, so it slots into compatible bays without adapters. Its 1.4 lb weight keeps loading light while the enterprise firmware handles continuous workloads. No extra mounting hardware is required for supported chassis.

Suited For Array Expansion

This drive suits administrators expanding HP storage arrays that accept 1.2 TB SAS modules in G7 trays. Buyers who need a desktop external drive, a larger capacity, or a different interface should look at something else.

Questions about this item

What sustained workload limit does the 1.2TB SAS drive hit first under continuous operation?

The drive is rated for 24/7 cycle duty, so the first limit under sustained use is the 24-hour endurance rating rather than a thermal throttle.

How much heat and noise does the 1.2TB SAS drive produce when running all day in a server?

At 1.4 lbs in a G7 tray, the enterprise drive runs within standard server cooling and acoustic envelopes for 24/7 array deployment.

Which HP server tray or caddy must I already have to install this 697574-B21-RF drive?

The drive ships in a genuine HP G7 tray, so the system must accept that specific tray form factor for the SAS connection to seat correctly.
