## Long description

HPE 881779-B21 is a 3.5" internal SAS hard drive by HP that provides 12 TB of raw capacity and a 7200 RPM spindle speed. Built for server and enterprise storage, this drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface to deliver reliable block-level storage for databases, virtualization hosts, backup and archival systems in rack or tower servers.

How to use
Install this internal 3.5" SAS drive into a compatible server or storage enclosure with a SAS-capable backplane or HBA.
