From HPE
The HPE 658083-001 is a genuine 500GB SATA Midline hard drive built for enterprise storage environments where cost-per-gigabyte and dependable performance matter most. Spinning at 7,200 RPM, it's engineered to support entry-level server workloads, backup operations, and archival storage tiers with a balanced approach to speed and economy. The 6Gb/s SATA interface provides a stable, high-throughput connection between the drive and its host controller, which is exactly what ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers are built around.
Because this is a genuine HPE component rather than a generic or rebadged drive, it's manufactured to the same tolerances and firmware compatibility standards as the original server configuration. That matters when you're replacing a drive in a live server — mismatched or unverified parts can cause RAID rebuild failures or degraded performance. The 658083-001's 3.5" LFF chassis is purpose-built to slot directly into compatible drive bays, often including an HP SmartDrive carrier, so installation is straightforward for IT teams managing active server infrastructure.
This drive is built specifically around HPE's ProLiant server architecture, which means it's designed to work within the storage enclosures and backplanes that were engineered to support SATA interfaces. Before ordering, it's worth double-checking your exact server model and backplane revision, since SATA storage systems can vary in supported drive firmware across generations. In general, this drive fits into:
Verify Server Model Before Ordering
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 658083-001 is HPE-manufactured, which 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 it worth choosing over a cheaper, unverified alternative:
This drive fits teams maintaining ProLiant server infrastructure who need dependable, ready-to-ship capacity without overspending. Common deployment scenarios include:
It's built for HPE ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers using a SATA 6Gb/s backplane, but compatibility can vary by server model and firmware revision. It's best to confirm your exact server configuration before placing an order.
HPE Midline (MDL) drives are designed for economical reliability in backup, archival, and external storage applications. They offer the lowest cost per gigabyte and are optimised for workloads with up to 40% duty cycle.
Yes, this drive is typically bundled with an HP SmartDrive Carrier (SC), which makes it ready for hot-swap installation in ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers.
