HPE R0Q55A 1.2TB SAS 12G 10K HDD

HPE R0Q55A 1.2TB SAS 12G 10K HDD – in Dubai

Overview:

The HPE R0Q55A is a 1.2 TB SAS 12 Gb/s internal hard drive designed for deployment by storage and server engineers in HPE Modular Smart Array (MSA) environments where balanced performance and capacity are required. It targets enterprise workloads with sustained I/O demands and offers a 10,000 RPM rotational speed for improved data access over lower‑speed mechanical drives.
It uses a 2.5” small form factor (SFF) with a second‑generation MSA carrier, enabling integration into MSA Gen6 and Gen7 series storage arrays, including MSA 1060, 2060, and related enclosures.
The SAS 12 Gb/s interface provides high‑throughput connectivity, suitable for database segments, virtualization hosts, and mixed transactional workloads where HDD class performance remains acceptable.
Hot‑swap capability permits drive replacement without system downtime, supporting serviceability in live SAN environments.
This drive is not suitable for use cases requiring SSD‑level latency or flash endurance; its role is mechanical enterprise storage in established array architectures.

Typical Deployment Scenarios:

• High‑performance SAS tiers in HPE MSA storage arrays
• Transactional databases and I/O‑intensive workloads
• Virtualized SAN segments with mixed application profiles
• Enterprise server storage requiring hot‑swap serviceability
• Storage refresh or expansion in 2.5” SFF drive enclosures

Technical Specifications:

Compatibility / Ecosystem:

• Compatible Rack Types: 2.5” SFF bays in HPE MSA storage enclosures
• SAS Compatibility: 12 Gb/s enterprise SAS interface
• Management Ecosystem: Monitored within HPE MSA array firmware
• Supported Platforms: HPE MSA 1060, 2060, 2062 and related Gen6/Gen7 systems
