HPE 871679-002 6TB 7.2K-RPM SAS 12Gb/s LFF Hard Drive
The HPE 871679-002 is a genuine 6TB SAS Midline hard drive built specifically for HPE MSA SAN storage arrays where capacity, reliability, and data integrity are absolutely critical. Spinning at 7,200 RPM with a data transfer rate of 1.2 GBps (12Gb/s), it is engineered to deliver high sustained throughput and dependable performance for array expansion, drive replacement, and bulk storage workloads. The 12Gb/s SAS interface provides stable, high-throughput data access, ensuring your MSA arrays never wait for storage.
What sets this drive apart is its purpose-built design for HPE MSA/MSA2 environments. The drive features a 512e Advanced Format sector format for improved data integrity and broad compatibility with modern operating systems and applications. It features dual-port SAS connectivity for built-in redundancy, boosting availability and fault tolerance in enterprise environments. The drive comes pre-attached to an MSA/MSA2 hot-plug tray with an interposer connector that converts the native dual-port SAS interface to an SCA-40 connector for the MSA2 proprietary backplane. This means it carries the MSA-specific firmware and mechanical tolerances your MSA controller already expects. As a Midline (MDL) class drive, it offers an excellent balance of capacity, performance, and cost for 24/7 array operations.
All HPE hard drives pass a rigorous qualification process, which certifies that every drive is proven to perform in your HPE storage environments. Because this is a genuine HPE component rather than a generic or rebadged drive, it carries original HPE MSA firmware and a genuine HPE security sticker. That matters when you're replacing a drive in a live production array — mismatched or unverified parts can cause RAID rebuild failures, performance degradation, or even system crashes.
