Internal Hard Drive HPE 300 GB 2.5" SAS 10000 RPM 730709-001-RFB

The HPE 730709-001-RFB is an internal hard drive from HP Enterprise offering 300 GB capacity in a 2.5" form factor with a 10,000 RPM spindle speed and SAS interface. Designed for server and storage systems, this HDD provides deterministic performance for enterprise workloads where consistent read/write responsiveness and low latency are important. The drive is intended for integration into compatible HPE server platforms and storage enclosures that support 2.5" SAS drives.

Advantages

This 2.5" SAS drive delivers a balance of capacity and performance suitable for mixed I/O environments. With a 10,000 RPM speed it offers faster seek times and sustained transfer rates compared with lower-RPM HDDs, improving application responsiveness. The SAS interface provides reliable connectivity and enterprise-grade signalling, while the 2.5" form factor enables higher drive density in rack-mounted servers and arrays. The drive is compatible with HPE platforms that accept the 730709-001-RFB MPN and is built to meet typical datacentre durability expectations.

Suitable for

• Enterprise servers requiring 10,000 RPM SAS drives
• Storage arrays and RAID configurations where moderate capacity and higher spindle speed are needed
• Applications with frequent random I/O and low-latency requirements
• High-density chassis and blade servers using 2.5" drives
