The HPE 801557-001 (Option Part: K2Q82A / Assembly: 807582-002 / Model: HUS726T4TAL5204) is a genuine 4TB SAS Midline hard drive built specifically for HPE MSA2 storage environments where cost-per-gigabyte and dependable performance are essential. Spinning at 7,200 RPM with a 256MB DDR3 cache buffer and an average latency of 4.2ms, it's engineered to support data storage, backup, and mid-range workload applications with a balanced approach to speed and economy. The 12Gb/s SAS interface provides a stable, high-throughput connection with a data transfer rate of 1.2 GBps, which is exactly what MSA storage arrays are built around.
What sets this drive apart is its unique MSA2 hot-plug tray with an interposer connector that is different from standard ProLiant drives. HPE MSA2 controller enclosures and large form factor expansion enclosures accept unique HPE SAS disk drive modules with different firmware and different trays than other HPE storage arrays and ProLiant servers. The disk drives have SAS interposers attached to the back which convert the native dual-port SAS interface to an SCA-40 connector, acting as a signal filter and port relocator to connect to the MSA2's proprietary backplane. The drive features dual-port SAS connectivity for built-in redundancy and is hot-swappable, meaning it can be replaced without shutting down the system — minimizing downtime during maintenance.
Because this is a genuine HPE component rather than a generic or rebadged drive, it carries original HPE MSA firmware and a genuine HPE serial number. That matters when you're replacing a drive in a live MSA storage array — mismatched or unverified parts can cause array dropouts or degraded performance.
This HPE 801557-001 4TB SAS hard drive is built specifically for HPE MSA2 storage architecture with a unique hot-plug tray and interposer connector that is different from standard ProLiant drives. It is designed for the following MSA storage systems. Before ordering, it's worth double-checking your exact array model and backplane revision.

Compatibility Notes:
When you're sourcing a replacement drive for an active MSA storage array, the difference between a genuine part and an unverified clone shows up the first time you need to rebuild a RAID set. The HPE 801557-001 is HPE-manufactured with MSA2-optimized firmware, a 256MB DDR3 cache buffer, a 2 million hour MTBF, a genuine HPE security sticker, and the unique MSA hot-plug tray and interposer connector included. This means it carries the firmware and mechanical tolerances your MSA controller already expects — no compatibility guesswork, no risk of a failed rebuild because of a mismatched drive. Here's what makes this HPE 801557-001 4TB SAS hard drive worth choosing over a cheaper, unverified alternative:
