Frequently Asked Questions

What types of workloads is the 861746-B21 HDD best suited for?

This Business Critical HDD is optimized for mission-critical enterprise workloads requiring high-capacity, reliable storage. Ideal use cases include database servers, ERP/CRM systems, virtualization environments, backup and archiving, large-scale data storage, and enterprise storage arrays.

Is this drive compatible with non-HPE servers?

Yes, the 861746-B21 is a Multi Vendor HDD, designed to work with HPE ProLiant Gen9/Gen10/Gen10 Plus servers as well as select third-party server platforms that support 3.5-inch LFF SAS 12Gb/s storage bays.

What is the difference between 512e and 4K native sector formats?

512e (512-byte emulation) drives use 4K physical sectors but emulate 512-byte logical sectors, providing backward compatibility with legacy systems. 4K native drives use 4K logical sectors exclusively, offering higher storage efficiency but may not be compatible with older systems.

Does the 861746-B21 support hot-swapping?

Yes, the drive features full hot-plug functionality, allowing installation or replacement without powering down the server, minimizing downtime in live data center environments.
