HP Enterprise 12TB 3,5 polegadas SATA 6G Midline 7.2K SC Helium 512e Disco rígido com firmware assinado digitalmente

Data centers and enterprise IT teams rely on high-capacity, dependable storage to keep critical workloads running around the clock. The HP Enterprise 12TB hard drive delivers exactly that, combining a massive 12TB capacity with a 3.5-inch large form factor and SATA 6Gb/s interface. Built for nearline applications, it features a helium-filled design that reduces internal turbulence, allowing for lower power consumption and higher reliability. The 7200 RPM spindle speed and 256MB cache ensure responsive performance for sequential workloads, while the 512e advanced format maintains compatibility with legacy systems. Digitally signed firmware protects against unauthorized modifications, and the Smart Carrier (SC) enables hot-swap capability in supported HPE ProLiant servers. With an MTBF of 2,000,000 hours, this drive is engineered for 24x7 operation in demanding environments.
