HPE 805339-001 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS LFF LP Hard Drive

HPE 8TB Low Profile Hard Drive Overview

The HPE 805339-001 8TB 7200RPM 3.5-Inch SAS 12Gbps Low Profile Hard Drive is a high-capacity enterprise storage solution engineered for performance, reliability, and scalability. Designed for HPE ProLiant servers and storage arrays, this hard drive offers a balance of speed and storage density, making it ideal for organizations that demand large-scale data retention, high availability, and consistent throughput in mission-critical environments.

Enterprise-Class Capacity and Performance

With its 8TB storage capacity, the HPE 805339-001 provides ample space for databases, virtualization environments, data-intensive applications, and enterprise backup solutions. Running at 7200RPM, this drive ensures that read and write operations are handled efficiently, delivering faster response times compared to standard desktop-grade HDDs. The 12Gbps SAS interface offers twice the bandwidth of 6Gbps SAS drives, minimizing bottlenecks and enhancing data transfer rates in enterprise data centers.

Advantages of 8TB Capacity

An 8TB drive offers significant storage density within a single 3.5-inch form factor. Enterprises can reduce the number of drives needed to achieve large storage pools, leading to lower power consumption, reduced cooling requirements, and decreased rack space usage. This level of density makes it well-suited for data warehousing, big data analytics, and archiving large-scale datasets.

7200RPM Speed Optimization

The rotational speed of 7200RPM provides a balance between energy efficiency and performance. While faster 10K and 15K RPM drives may be used for ultra-high-performance transactional workloads, 7200RPM drives like the HPE 805339-001 excel in high-capacity storage scenarios where throughput and cost-efficiency matter. This makes it a versatile option for file servers, media storage, and general-purpose enterprise workloads.

SAS 12Gbps Interface Technology

Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) drives are the gold standard for enterprise storage systems due to their robustness, reliability, and scalability. The HPE 805339-001 leverages a 12Gbps SAS interface to maximize data transfer rates and ensure compatibility with modern HPE servers and storage enclosures.

Benefits of SAS Over SATA

• Enhanced Reliability: SAS drives are designed for 24/7 workloads, ensuring long-term durability and error recovery capabilities.
• Higher Bandwidth: The 12Gbps interface doubles the throughput of older 6Gbps models, accelerating data access and backup operations.
• Dual-Port Design: SAS supports dual-porting for redundancy, enabling continuous data access even if one path fails.
• Improved Command Queuing: SAS drives can handle multiple simultaneous I/O requests more efficiently than SATA.

Compatibility with Enterprise Environments

The HPE 805339-001 is designed to integrate seamlessly into enterprise systems, offering hot-plug functionality in compatible servers and storage enclosures. This allows for non-disruptive drive replacements and upgrades, minimizing downtime and maintaining business continuity.

Low Profile Form Factor Design

The 3.5-inch low-profile design of the HPE 805339-001 ensures maximum compatibility with enterprise-grade servers and storage enclosures. Its compact yet robust build allows data centers to optimize space while maintaining easy serviceability and scalability.

Optimized for Rack Servers

The low-profile form factor is tailored for rack-mounted systems, providing a high-density storage solution that reduces the overall hardware footprint. This is particularly beneficial for enterprises that operate large-scale server farms and require efficient use of physical rack space.
