HPE 1.8TB SAS 12Gb/s 15000RPM Mission Critical 2.5-inch Hard Drive with Basic Carrier — P54682-001

The HPE P54682-001 is the HP spare part number for the 1.8TB SAS 12Gb/s 15000RPM Mission Critical SFF Basic Carrier hard disk drive, equivalent to option part P53562-B21. HP spare part numbers (ending in -001) are used for service depot, warranty replacement, and HPE support procurement. This 15K RPM Mission Critical SAS drive delivers the same enterprise-grade performance and reliability as the option part, validated for HPE ProLiant Gen9, Gen10, Gen10 Plus, and Gen11 servers. With 15,000RPM spindle speed and SAS 12Gb/s dual-port interface, it provides the lowest latency and highest IOPS available in spinning disk storage.
