HPE StorageWorks 600 GB SAN Drive
This internal Fibre Channel hard drive provides 600 GB of storage for storage-area-network environments. It spins at 10000 rpm and is built as a qualified option for HPE infrastructure. The hot-swappable design allows drive replacement without powering down the enclosure. It suits administrators who need reliable block storage in supported HPE arrays.
Verify Fibre Channel Backplane Compatibility
Confirm that your enclosure or array accepts a Fibre Channel drive with the AP730A part number before ordering. The drive requires a matching Fibre Channel backplane and controller to function. Check the system documentation for supported drive types and carrier requirements. Ensure the hot-swap bay matches the physical carrier used by this model.
Hot-Swap Carrier Simplifies Maintenance
The 1 lb drive mounts in a standard hot-swap carrier for tool-less insertion and removal. Fibre Channel connectors engage automatically when the carrier seats in the bay. This design reduces service time and avoids cable routing inside the chassis. The internal form factor keeps cabling contained within the storage enclosure.

Questions about this item
Does the AP730A ship with a tray or caddy, or do I need to order one separately?
The drive is hot-swappable and designed for internal SAN bays; a carrier is not included and must be sourced for your specific enclosure.
The part number ends in 730 — does that indicate a capacity or speed tier I should match?
AP730A identifies this 600 GB, 10000 rpm Fibre Channel model; select the same part number to keep capacity and spindle speed identical.
What does the 10000 rpm rating deliver in a live SAN array?
The 10000 rpm spindle provides low-latency, high-IOPS performance suited to transaction-heavy workloads in a Fibre Channel SAN.
