900 GB 2.5" 15000 rpm SAS drive

The HPE 872846-B21 is a 900 GB internal hard drive with a 2.5 inch form factor and a 15000 rpm spindle speed. It connects through a 12Gb/s SAS interface and is designated for server environments. This unit is supplied in new condition.

Suited for high-IO server workloads

This drive suits administrators who need low-latency random access for transactional databases or virtualisation hosts. Buyers who want larger sequential throughput for archival storage should look at higher-capacity nearline models. Systems without a 12Gb/s SAS backplane cannot use the full interface speed.

12Gb/s SAS interface requirement

The single specification that decides fitment is the 12Gb/s SAS interface; the host controller and backplane must support this standard for the drive to operate at its rated performance. Verify the server or storage array accepts 2.5 inch SAS devices before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 12Gb/s SAS interface on the 872846-B21 work with my existing 6Gb/s SAS backplane?

Yes, the 12Gb/s SAS drive is backward compatible and will negotiate down to 6Gb/s when connected to an older backplane.

How can I confirm the drive is running at the full 15000 rpm after installation?

Check the drive status in the server BIOS or HPE Smart Storage Administrator; it will report the negotiated link speed and rotational speed.

Does the 2.5-inch 900 GB drive ship with a mounting tray or caddy for my server?

The drive is supplied as a bare mechanism; a server-specific hot-plug tray or caddy must be purchased separately.
