Description
Overview of the HPE VB0250EAVER 250GB 7.2K RPM Hard Drive
The HPE VB0250EAVER is a 250GB hard drive manufactured by Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (HPE). It is designed for use in enterprise-level servers and storage systems. The hard drive is a 3.5-inch form factor and operates at a speed of 7,200 rotations per minute (RPM). It uses the Serial ATA (SATA) 1.5Gbps interface to transfer data between the drive and the server or storage system. The hard drive is a hot-swappable device, which means that it can be replaced while the server or storage system is still running.
Capacity and Speed
The HPE VB0250EAVER hard drive has a capacity of 250GB, which is suitable for storing a moderate amount of data. The capacity of the hard drive is determined by the number of platters inside the drive, which in turn determines the amount of data that can be stored on each platter. In this case, the hard drive has one platter, which is capable of storing up to 250GB of data.
The hard drive also has a rotational speed of 7,200 RPM. The rotational speed of a hard drive determines how quickly the drive can access and transfer data. A higher RPM generally means faster data transfer speeds, although other factors such as the interface also play a role. The 7,200 RPM speed of the HPE VB0250EAVER hard drive is a mid-range speed that balances performance with reliability.
Interface
The HPE VB0250EAVER hard drive uses the SATA 1.5Gbps interface to transfer data between the drive and the server or storage system. SATA is a popular interface for hard drives because it is simple and cost-effective. The 1.5Gbps speed of the interface is a limitation of the interface itself, and not the hard drive. SATA has since been replaced by faster interfaces such as SATA 3.0Gbps and SATA 6.0Gbps.
Form Factor
The HPE VB0250EAVER hard drive has a 3.5-inch form factor, which is the standard size for desktop and enterprise-level hard drives. The form factor refers to the physical size of the hard drive and determines whether it will fit into a particular server or storage system. 3.5-inch hard drives are larger and more expensive than 2.5-inch hard drives, but they generally offer higher capacities and faster speeds.
Hot-Swap Capability
The HPE VB0250EAVER hard drive is a hot-swappable device, which means that it can be replaced while the server or storage system is still running. Hot-swapping is a useful feature in enterprise-level systems because it allows for quick and easy replacement of failed drives without having to power down the system. Hot-swappable drives are designed to be easily removable and replaceable without causing any damage to the system.
Midline vs. Entry vs. Performance
The HPE VB0250EAVER hard drive is part of the HPE Midline series of hard drives. Midline hard drives are designed for use in entry-level to mid-range storage systems and offer a balance of performance, capacity, and reliability. They are generally less expensive than Performance hard drives, but offer higher performance than Entry hard drives. Entry hard drives are designed for use in low-end storage systems, while Performance hard drives are designed for use in high-end storage systems.
