## Long description

HP 1.2TB 2.5" SAS-3 (12Gb/s) server drive is an enterprise-class 2.5-inch hard disk designed for use in rack and tower servers as well as storage arrays.

How to use
Install the drive into a compatible 2.5-inch SAS bay in a server or storage enclosure following the host system vendor's drive insertion procedure.
