The tray provides a secure and convenient way to mount the hard disk drive within the server chassis, ensuring compatibility with HPE servers and facilitating easy replacement or upgrade procedures.
Benefits of HPE M0S90A in Server EnvironmentsEnhanced Data Storage and RetrievalThe combination of a high storage capacity, 7200 RPM rotational speed, and a 12 GBPS SAS interface results in enhanced data storage and retrieval performance. This is particularly advantageous for server applications that require quick access to large datasets.
Improved System UptimeThe hot swap capability of the HPE M0S90A minimizes downtime during maintenance or upgrades. IT administrators can replace or add hard disk drives without disrupting the operation of the server, contributing to improved system uptime and availability.
Scalability for Growing Storage NeedsThe HPE M0S90A 8TB SAS-12GBPS 7.2K RPM LFF Midline Hot Swap Hard Drive is designed for use in servers and workstations that support the SAS interface and have a Large Form Factor (LFF) drive bay. The drive's form factor is LFF, which is a type of drive that is larger in size compared to Small Form Factor (SFF) drives, and is typically used in servers and workstations.It is important to check the compatibility of the HPE 8TB SAS-12GBPS 7.2K RPM LFF Midline Hot Swap Hard Drive with your specific server or workstation model before purchasing. You should verify that the system has a SAS interface, LFF drive bay, and is compatible with the drive's power and voltage requirements, and any other specifications required by the drive.
It's also important to check the firmware and drivers of the system and check if they support the drive. It's always recommended to check with the manufacturer's website or consult with their support team to ensure compatibility.
Cost-Effective Storage SolutionAs a Midline class hard disk drive, the HPE M0S90A provides a cost-effective storage solution without compromising on performance. This makes it an attractive option for businesses that need reliable storage within budget constraints.
Versatility in Server ConfigurationsThe LFF design and compatibility with server trays make the HPE M0S90A versatile, fitting into various server configurations. Whether used in tower servers, rack-mounted servers, or blade servers, this hard disk drive can adapt to different environments with ease.
Performance and ReliabilityThe HPE M0S90A 8TB SAS-12GBPS 7.2K RPM LFF Midline Hot Swap Hard Drive is a high-performance hard drive designed for use in enterprise-level servers and workstations. The drive's performance is influenced by several factors:Capacity: With a storage capacity of 8 terabytes (TB), this hard drive can store a large amount of data, making it suitable for storing large amounts of media files, backups, and other types of data.
Rotational speed: The hard drive's rotational speed of 7,200 RPM means that the platters inside the drive spin at 7,200 times per minute. This can result in faster data access times, as the drive's read/write head can access data on the platters more quickly.
Data transfer rate: The drive has a data transfer rate of 12 Gbps. This is the speed at which data can be transferred between the drive and the computer. A higher data transfer rate can result in faster data transfer speeds, which can be beneficial when working with large files or when copying data to or from the drive.
Interface: The drive uses the SAS interface, which is a faster and more reliable interface compared to SATA. SAS interface is typically used in enterprise-level servers and workstations that require high-performance storage.
Hot-swapping capability: The drive's hot-swapping capability allows it to be removed and replaced without shutting down the system. This can be beneficial in a server or workstation environment, as it allows for maintenance to be performed without interrupting ongoing operations.
