666355-003 HPE 600GB 10K RPM 6GBPS SAS SFF 2.5inch SC Enterprise Hard Drive. New Bulk Pack.

The HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD provides several security features to help protect sensitive data. The drive supports self-encrypting drive (SED) technology, which provides hardware-based data encryption. This means that data is encrypted in real-time as it is written to the drive, and decrypted in real-time as it is read from the drive, using a dedicated encryption engine built into the drive. SED technology helps to protect data from unauthorized access, theft, or loss, and can also simplify the process of data disposal by securely erasing all data on the drive.

In addition to SED technology, the HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD also supports secure erase functionality, which allows for quick and secure erasure of all data on the drive. This can be useful when repurposing or disposing of the drive.

Furthermore, the drive also supports HPE Secure Encryption, which is a software-based encryption solution that provides policy-based data encryption for HPE ProLiant Gen9 servers. HPE Secure Encryption provides data encryption at rest, which helps to protect against data theft or loss in case of a physical security breach.

Reliability and Endurance

The HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD is designed for high reliability and endurance, making it suitable for use in enterprise environments. The drive has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours, which means that it is expected to operate reliably for a long period of time before experiencing a failure. The drive also uses advanced error correction techniques and includes a robust system of self-monitoring, analysis, and reporting technology (SMART) that can detect and report on potential issues before they become critical.

In terms of endurance, the HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD has a rated workload of up to 550TB per year, which means that it is designed to handle a high volume of read and write operations over its lifespan. The drive also includes a feature called HPE Smart Carrier, which provides enhanced drive status and identification information, allowing for faster and more accurate troubleshooting and replacement of failed drives.

Moreover, the HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD includes HPE SmartDrive technology, which monitors the health of the drive and predicts when it is likely to fail. This technology helps to prevent data loss due to drive failure and allows for proactive maintenance to be performed to prevent downtime.

Power Consumption and Heat Dissipation

The HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD has a maximum power consumption of 7.5 watts during read/write operations and 4.5 watts during idle periods. The low power consumption of the drive helps to reduce energy costs and minimize heat generation, which can contribute to a more efficient and cooler operating environment.

To further minimize heat generation, the drive also includes advanced power management features that can adjust power consumption based on workload demands. For example, the drive can enter a low-power idle state when it is not being used, and it can automatically adjust its spindle speed based on the workload, which can reduce heat generation and power consumption.

Moreover, the HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD includes a feature called HPE Smart Carrier, which includes an integrated temperature sensor that can monitor the temperature of the drive and provide alerts if the temperature exceeds a pre-defined threshold. This helps to prevent overheating and potential damage to the drive or other components in the system.

The HPE 600GB 10K RPM SAS SFF HDD has a low power consumption and advanced power management features that help to minimize heat generation, reduce energy costs, and promote a more efficient and cooler operating environment.
