Description
Compatibility of SAS Hard Drive
Compatibility refers to the ability of a device, such as the HPE 834031-H21 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS DS Internal Hard Drive, to work seamlessly with other devices or systems. In this case, the compatibility of the hard drive would refer to its ability to work with the specific system or server that it is intended to be used with.
The HPE 834031-H21 hard drive is compatible with HPE ProLiant Gen9, Gen10 and Gen10 Plus servers. It is also compatible with HPE Synergy Gen9, Gen10 and Gen10 Plus composable systems. Additionally, it is compatible with HPE Apollo Gen10 systems.
It is important to ensure that the hard drive is compatible with the specific system or server that it will be used in. Incompatible hardware can cause a variety of issues, such as reduced performance or even complete system failure. This is why it is important to consult the technical documentation and check with the system or server vendor before purchasing and installing any hardware.
Installation and Setup
Installing and setting up the HPE 834031-H21 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS DS Internal Hard Drive is a straightforward process that typically involves the following steps:
- Power off the server or system in which the hard drive will be installed.
- Open the server or system’s case to access the internal hard drive bays.
- Remove any existing hard drive if necessary.
- Carefully insert the HPE 834031-H21 hard drive into the appropriate hard drive bay, making sure that it is securely seated in the bay.
- Connect the hard drive’s SAS or SATA cable to the appropriate port on the system’s motherboard or controller.
- Connect the hard drive’s power cable to the appropriate power connector on the system’s power supply.
- Close the server or system’s case.
- Power on the server or system and boot it up.
- Configure the hard drive in the system’s BIOS or RAID controller.
It’s important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions when installing and setting up the hard drive, as well as the instructions that come with the server or system. It’s also important to ensure that the server or system is compatible with the hard drive before installing it.
Once the hard drive is installed and set up, it can be used for data storage and retrieval just like any other internal hard drive. It may also be added to the existing RAID array for data redundancy, performance enhancement or both.
It’s also a good practice to check for the firmware and driver updates for the hard drive and the system after the installation, to ensure that the drive is working at its optimal performance.
Reliability and Durability
Reliability and durability are important factors to consider when purchasing an internal hard drive like the HPE 834031-H21 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS 12GBPS DS Internal Hard Drive.
Reliability refers to the ability of the hard drive to perform its intended functions without failure over a specific period of time. The HPE 834031-H21 hard drive is designed with reliability in mind, featuring a mean time between failure (MTBF) of 2 million hours. This means that the hard drive has been tested and has a very low probability of failure over a period of 2 million hours of use.
Durability refers to the ability of the hard drive to withstand environmental factors, such as heat and vibration, without experiencing damage or failure. The HPE 834031-H21 hard drive is built to withstand normal operating temperatures and has a non-operating temperature range of -40 to 70 degrees Celsius. It also features a rotational vibration tolerance of 12.5 rad/s^2.
Additionally, it has the capability of providing 12Gbps SAS interface to the host, which is faster than the previous generation SAS interface, 6Gbps SAS. This makes the hard drive more efficient in terms of data transfer and storage.
