Overview
581311-001 Overview
HPE 581311-001, 2.5", 600 GB, 10000 RPM
HPE 581311-001 is a HP 600GB hot-plug dual-port SAS hard disk drive - 6Gb/s transfer rate, 10,000 RPM, 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF), for use with Gen7 or earlier models.
Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is the logical evolution of SCSI combining its long-established software advantage with the SAS electrical and physical connection. With enterprise storage requirements escalating and becoming more complex factors such as larger capacity greater density security scalability and accessibility are more critical than ever.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is the HPE 581311-001 hard drive compatible with newer Gen10 servers? +
The 581311-001 is specifically engineered for HPE Gen7 or earlier server models. Due to architectural differences in disk carrier design and interface signaling, this drive is not intended for use in Gen8, Gen9, or Gen10 platforms. Always verify your server's backplane compatibility and drive cage physical dimensions before deployment to ensure a proper fit.
What are the primary performance advantages of this 10,000 RPM SAS drive? +
Operating at 10,000 RPM, this drive offers a superior balance of high-speed random input/output operations and sustained throughput compared to standard 7.2K drives. The 6Gb/s SAS interface provides reliable, full-duplex data transfer, making it an excellent choice for transactional databases and server applications that require low latency and consistent performance under moderate to heavy workloads.
What does the hot-plug capability mean for my data center maintenance? +
Hot-plug functionality allows you to replace or install this drive while the server is powered on and running. This feature is critical for maintaining high availability in your infrastructure, as it enables administrators to perform drive swaps during component failure or routine storage upgrades without requiring a scheduled system outage or downtime.
Can I use this 2.5-inch SAS drive in a 3.5-inch drive bay? +
While the physical drive is a 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF) unit, it can be installed into a 3.5-inch Large Form Factor (LFF) bay using a dedicated converter tray or adapter. Ensure your server chassis supports the necessary drive carrier interface to bridge the connection to your backplane, as direct mounting will not align correctly with your existing server connectors.
Why is dual-port SAS connectivity important for this hard drive? +
The dual-port SAS interface provides redundant paths to the storage media from the server's disk controller. If one path fails, the controller can maintain access through the second port, significantly increasing data reliability and minimizing the risk of loss during link errors. This makes the drive suitable for mission-critical enterprise environments where continuous data access is a strict requirement.
What are the specific thermal or power considerations for the 600GB 581311-001? +
As a 10K RPM enterprise-grade SAS drive, this unit generates consistent heat during extended operations. It is designed to be housed in server chassis equipped with active cooling airflow systems. Ensure your server rack environment maintains proper ambient temperatures and that the drive is seated firmly in the carrier to facilitate optimal heat dissipation through the server's cooling fans.
Does this drive require special firmware or HPE-specific controller drivers? +
HPE drives are optimized for performance and compatibility with HPE Smart Array controllers. While the drive uses standard SAS protocols, utilizing the official HPE firmware ensures optimal communication with the host controller for health reporting and RAID management. We recommend checking your server's Storage Administrator interface to ensure your controller firmware is up to date for proper recognition.
Is this drive suitable for RAID array configurations? +
Yes, the 581311-001 is perfectly suited for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, or 10 configurations. Its SAS interface and 10K spindle speed provide the reliability and speed necessary for parity-based arrays. For optimal performance within a RAID set, ensure that you match drives of identical capacity, speed, and interface specifications to prevent performance bottlenecks or erratic controller behavior during rebuilds.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for multiple 581311-001 units? +
