Product Description

High-Capacity 4TB SATA Storage for Business-Critical Applications

The 861683-B21 is an enterprise-class hard drive built by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) to deliver stable, high-capacity storage for business-critical workloads in modern data centers, server deployments, and storage systems. This 4TB HDD features a 7200 RPM rotational speed, 6Gb/s SATA interface, and a 3.5-inch Large Form Factor (LFF) Low Profile (LP) design, making it highly suitable for capacity-heavy applications including file storage, backup, archiving, virtualization repositories, and small-to-medium enterprise database environments.

As a Multi-Vendor certified model, it ensures broad compatibility across HPE ProLiant servers and third-party server platforms, streamlining system integration, inventory management, and large-scale storage expansion for IT administrators. Constructed with enterprise-grade mechanical components and digitally signed firmware, this drive is validated to operate continuously in 24/7 business environments.

Performance & Reliability for Stable Business Operations

Designed for balanced performance and power efficiency, the 861683-B21 uses a 7200 RPM spindle to deliver consistent data access for medium-intensity workloads. The 6Gb/s SATA interface supports a maximum transfer rate of up to 600MB/s, ensuring smooth handling of large file transfers, batch backups, and daily business data processing.

Reliability is prioritized through rigorous HPE qualification tests, including stress testing, environmental simulation, and compatibility validation. The drive's Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) meets enterprise-level standards to support uninterrupted daily operations. Multi-Vendor certification ensures consistent quality across supply chains and reduces integration risks in mixed-vendor IT infrastructures.

LFF LP Design & Multi-Vendor Compatibility

The 861683-B21 utilizes a 3.5-inch LFF Low Profile form factor to maximize storage density while fitting standard server and storage array bays. The hot-swap-ready LP carrier enables tool-free maintenance, supporting fast drive replacement during upgrades or fault recovery. This model is fully compatible with HPE ProLiant Gen10, Gen10 Plus, Gen11 and selected Gen12 servers, as well as third-party servers and storage enclosures equipped with 3.5-inch SATA 6G bays.

The 512e advanced format ensures wide compatibility with Windows Server, Linux, VMware, and other mainstream operating systems, eliminating barriers during system migration or deployment. Its standardized physical and electrical design simplifies stock management and supports flexible configuration in small, medium, and enterprise-level environments.
