HPE P28618-B21 SAS 10K SFF BC SED FIPS HDD

Overview

The HPE P28618-B21 is a 2.4TB SAS hard drive designed for mission-critical workloads requiring high performance and data integrity. Its 10K RPM spindle speed and 512e sector format make it suitable for demanding surveillance storage applications where consistent data throughput is essential. This drive utilizes Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) technology with FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validation, providing robust data-at-rest security for sensitive video footage and system logs.

Compatibility

This SFF (Small Form Factor) drive is compatible with HPE ProLiant servers and HPE MSA (Modular Smart Array) storage systems that support 2.5-inch SAS drives. It is designed to integrate into existing HPE storage arrays and servers requiring mission-critical SAS connectivity. Verify your specific server or array model supports 2.5-inch SFF SAS drives with 10K RPM rotation speed for optimal performance.

Installation Notes

The drive includes a Basic Carrier (BC) for straightforward installation into compatible HPE drive bays. Ensure the drive is properly seated and secured within the carrier before insertion. For optimal performance and reliability, adhere to the torque specifications provided by HPE for drive installation and follow the server or storage system's specific installation procedures. The 512e format (Advanced Format) ensures compatibility with modern operating systems and applications, though older systems may require specific driver or firmware support.
