The HPE 652564-S21 (SmartBuy Part) is a genuine 300GB SAS Enterprise hard drive built for enterprise storage environments where performance, uptime, and consistent data access are critical. Based on model EG000300JWBHR or EG0300FBDSP technology, it spins at 10,000 RPM with a 512n sector format, delivering high IOPS and low latency for database workloads, transaction processing, and virtualized environments. The 6Gb/s SAS interface provides a stable, high-throughput connection with a data transfer rate of 750 MB/s, which is exactly what ProLiant Gen8, Gen9, and Gen10 servers are built around.
This drive features dual-port SAS connectivity for built-in redundancy, boosting availability and fault tolerance in enterprise environments. It is also hot-swappable, meaning it can be replaced without shutting down the system — minimizing downtime during maintenance. The drive comes with an HPE Smart Carrier (SC) pre-attached, making it ready for hot-plug installation in compatible ProLiant systems.
Because this is a genuine HPE component rather than a generic or rebadged drive, it carries original HPE firmware and a genuine HPE security sticker. That matters when you're replacing a drive in a live server — mismatched or unverified parts can cause RAID rebuild failures or degraded performance.
This HPE 652564-S21 300GB SAS hard drive is built specifically for HPE's ProLiant server architecture with Smart Carrier (SC) compatibility, which means it's designed to work within the storage enclosures and backplanes that were engineered to support SAS interfaces. It is compatible with ProLiant Gen8, Gen9, and Gen10 servers and is not recommended for MSA storage arrays. Before ordering, it's worth double-checking your exact server model and backplane revision. In general, this drive fits into:
HPE ProLiant Gen8 Servers:
HPE ProLiant Gen9 Servers:
HPE ProLiant Gen10 Servers:
Compatibility Notes:
When you're sourcing a replacement drive for an active server, the difference between a genuine part and an unverified clone shows up the first time you need to rebuild a RAID set. The HPE 652564-S21 is HPE-manufactured with a genuine HPE security sticker and original firmware. This means it carries the firmware and mechanical tolerances your server's controller already expects — no compatibility guesswork, no risk of a failed rebuild because of a mismatched drive. Here's what makes this HPE 652564-S21 300GB SAS hard drive worth choosing over a cheaper, unverified alternative:
