72 GB 15000 RPM SAS enterprise drive
This 2.5 inch SAS hard drive delivers 72 GB of storage at 15000 RPM for HP server and storage arrays. The 6 Gb/s interface supports dual-port operation for path redundancy in mission-critical environments. It ships as an HP Qualified Option with a tray for direct insertion into supported drive bays.
Buyers needing higher capacity
This drive suits administrators replacing failed units in existing SAS infrastructures where 72 GB and 15000 RPM are specified. It is not for buyers who need more storage space, quieter operation, or drives compatible with non-SAS controllers. The end-of-sale status means manufacturer warranty has expired and long-term spares availability is limited.
SAS 6 Gb/s interface determines compatibility
The drive connects only to backplanes and controllers that support SAS 6 Gb/s signalling. A 2.5 inch bay and the correct drive tray are also required for physical installation. Verify the target system's drive carrier and controller specifications before purchase.
