The HPE 871861-001 is a genuine 6TB SAS Nearline hard drive built for HPE 3PAR StoreServ and InServ storage environments where capacity, reliability, and data security are absolutely critical. Spinning at 7,200 RPM with a drive transfer rate of 600 MBps (external), it is engineered to deliver high sustained throughput and dependable performance for array expansion, archival tiers, and bulk storage workloads. The 6Gb/s SAS interface provides stable, high-throughput data access, ensuring your 3PAR arrays never wait for storage.
What sets this drive apart is its FIPS encryption capability, which provides hardware-based data security for compliance-driven environments. The drive is a Nearline (NL) class unit, offering an excellent balance of capacity, performance, and cost for 24/7 array operations. It comes with a compatible drive tray pre-attached, ensuring easy installation and seamless integration into 3PAR M6720 and M6710 disk enclosures. This drive is purpose-built for the 3PAR ecosystem, carrying the specific firmware and mechanical tolerances your 3PAR controller already expects.
All HPE hard drives pass a rigorous qualification process, which certifies that every drive is proven to perform in your HPE 3PAR storage environments. 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 production array — mismatched or unverified parts can cause rebuild failures, performance degradation, or even array downtime.
This HPE 871861-001 6TB SAS hard drive is built specifically for HPE 3PAR storage environments requiring high-capacity 3.5" LFF Nearline drives with FIPS encryption. It features a 6Gb/s SAS interface, 7,200 RPM spindle speed, and drive tray compatibility for 3PAR StoreServ M6720 and M6710 disk enclosures, as well as 3PAR InServ 7200/7400/7450 arrays.
When you're replacing a drive in an active 3PAR array, the difference between a genuine HPE spare and an unverified clone shows up the first time you need to rebuild a RAID set. The HPE 871861-001 is HPE-manufactured with FIPS encryption, a 600 MBps transfer rate, Nearline class reliability, a genuine HPE security sticker, and a drive tray included. This means it carries the firmware and mechanical tolerances your 3PAR controller already expects — no compatibility guesswork, no risk of a failed rebuild because of a mismatched drive. Here's what makes this HPE 871861-001 6TB SAS hard drive worth choosing over a cheaper, unverified alternative:
This HPE 871861-001 6TB SAS hard drive fits teams maintaining HPE 3PAR storage infrastructure who need reliable, high-capacity storage for array expansion and replacement. Common deployment scenarios include:
We supply genuine HPE 3PAR storage to data centers, MSPs, and enterprise IT teams that cannot afford rebuild failures. Our focus is on exact part matching, fast dispatch, and technical verification before shipping.
Yes, the 871861-001 is specifically designed for HPE 3PAR StoreServ M6720 and M6710 disk enclosures, as well as 3PAR InServ 7200/7400/7450 arrays. It is a Nearline (NL) drive with FIPS encryption. Columns of drives in the M6720 enclosure must be of the same type and rotational speed, so verify your existing array configuration. Our free compatibility verification confirms your exact array model and firmware revision before shipping.
FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) encryption provides hardware-based data security that meets strict government and compliance requirements. This drive is FIPS encrypted, meaning data written to it is protected at rest without impacting array performance. It is ideal for environments subject to HIPAA, GDPR, or PCI-DSS compliance mandates.
Every HPE 871861-001 comes with a 90-day warranty on refurbished units and a 3-year limited warranty on new units, plus access to our 24/7 expert technical support team. If the drive does not work in your system, we cover free returns and replacements with no questions asked.
