HPE 1 TB SAS 12Gbps Midline HDD

The HPE 846524-B21 is a new 1 TB internal hard drive with a 3.5 inch form factor. It operates at 7200 rpm and connects through a SAS 12Gbps interface. The drive is hot-pluggable and designed for midline storage tiers in enterprise environments.

Suited for capacity-focused arrays

This drive suits administrators who need high-capacity rotational storage on a 12Gbps SAS backbone. It is not for workloads that demand the low latency or high IOPS of solid-state media, nor for systems that only accept interfaces other than SAS.

Deciding specification: SAS 12Gbps interface

The single specification that decides fitment is the SAS 12Gbps drive interface standard. The host backplane or controller must support 12Gbps SAS signalling for the drive to operate at its rated speed. Without a compatible SAS connection the drive will not function.

Highlights

  • 1 TB capacity stores large data sets
  • 7200 RPM spindle speed delivers consistent throughput
  • SAS 12Gb/s interface enables fast data transfer
  • 5 inch form factor fits standard drive bays
  • Hot-pluggable design allows drive replacement without downtime

Questions about this item

Does my server need a 12Gb/s SAS backplane for this 846524-B21 drive to work?

The drive uses a 12Gb/s SAS interface and fits a 3.5" hot-plug bay, so the host must provide a compatible SAS backplane or controller.

Will this 7200 rpm midline HDD share a SAS chain with older 6Gb/s drives?

Yes, the 12Gb/s SAS link negotiates down to 6Gb/s, letting the 1 TB drive operate alongside legacy SAS devices on the same controller.

How can I confirm the 846524-B21 is running at 12Gb/s after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or management utility for a reported link speed of 12Gb/s and verify the drive shows its full 1 TB capacity.
