HPE 787656-001 600GB SAS 15000 RPM 3.5in hard drive accessory

SKU CH-GPW0-EB4SG MPN 787656-001

600 GB, 15000 RPM SAS hard drive in a 3.5 inch form factor for HPE MSA P2000 G3 arrays

  • Enterprise-grade 600 GB capacity stores critical data
  • 12 Gb/s SAS interface enables fast array throughput
  • 15000 RPM spindle speed cuts latency for heavy workloads
  • 5-inch LFF form factor fits HPE MSA P2000 G3 bays
  • Designed for server and storage arrays, not home PCs

Enterprise 600 GB SAS drive

This 600 GB SAS hard drive spins at 15000 RPM in a 3.5 inch form factor. It is built for HPE MSA P2000 G3 storage arrays that require high-throughput enterprise storage. The 12 G SAS interface matches the controller specification for this platform. It is supplied new as an OEM component for qualified systems.

Suits MSA P2000 G3 upgrades

This drive fits administrators expanding or replacing disks in an HPE MSA P2000 G3 enclosure. It is not for desktop PCs, workstations or consumer NAS units that lack a 12 G SAS backplane. Buyers needing larger capacities or different form factors should look at other parts. Laptop or small-form-factor bays cannot accept this 3.5 inch device.

15000 RPM spindle speed

The 15000 RPM rotation rate determines the sustained throughput and latency profile for transaction-heavy workloads. This speed is the primary specification that decides whether the drive meets the performance window of the target array. Slower spindles will not deliver the same IOPS consistency.

Questions about this item

How do I install the HPE 787656-001 into an MSA P2000 G3 and what step is often missed?

Slide the 3.5 in drive into the LFF bay until the carrier clicks, then secure the retention lever; the step often missed is fully engaging the lever so the SAS connector seats on the 12G backplane.

What maintenance or replacement will the 600GB 15000 RPM drive need later?

The mechanical 15000 RPM drive will eventually require replacement when bearing wear or media errors appear; no user-serviceable parts exist, so plan a spare 787656-001 for hot-swap exchange.

What limit appears first on the 12G SAS drive under sustained write workloads?

The 15000 RPM spindle speed caps sustained throughput before the 12G SAS interface saturates, so sequential writes plateau at the mechanical media rate.
