HPE EH000300JWKTN 300GB 2.5in SAS Hard Drive

HPE EH000300JWKTN 300GB 2.5in 15K SAS Hard Drive

HPE EH000300JWKTN is the model code of a 300GB, 15,000 rpm hard drive with a 12Gb/s SAS interface in the 2.5in form factor. It is one of the bare disks HPE fits inside its 870753-B21 SmartCarrier drive, which has the service spare number 870792-001.

You will normally find this code printed on the drive body, under the carrier. Server administrators and maintenance engineers search for it when they need a disk that matches the rest of an existing 15K array in an HPE ProLiant.

EH000300JWKTN stock is offered by Euroland IT Store in New and Refurbished condition, while stock lasts.

HPE EH000300JWKTN Technical Specifications

What Is The HPE EH000300JWKTN?

HPE uses three layers of numbering for its drives. The option kit (870753-B21) is the retail product. The spare (870792-001) is the service part. The model code (EH000300JWKTN) names the disk mechanism itself. HPE approves more than one disk model for the same option, and EH000300JWCPK, EH000300JWHPL and EH000300JXLVR appear in the same family.

So why does the exact code matter? Two disks from the same family will work together, but some administrators prefer identical models across an array for even performance and simpler firmware management. Knowing the model code also helps when the carrier label is damaged and you need to work back to the right spare.

Where 15K Disks Still Earn Their Place

Solid state drives have taken over many fast storage jobs, yet 15K hard drives remain common in servers built a few years ago. They offer quick random access compared with 10K and 7.2K disks, and they behave well with the RAID controllers and monitoring tools that were set up around them. Swapping a whole array to SSD means new planning and testing. Replacing one 300GB 15K disk with a matching one does not.

Typical jobs for this drive include operating system mirrors, SQL transaction logs, small virtual machine stores and application servers that read and write in small blocks.

New HPE EH000300JWKTN

New drives give you a clean start with no running hours. They suit production servers and any array holding important data. Please check the warranty for new stock on the product page.

Refurbished HPE EH000300JWKTN

Refurbished drives offer the same model at a lower price. They work well as replacements in older servers and as shelf spares. The product page lists the condition and warranty for refurbished units.

Server Compatibility

When fitted in its SmartCarrier as 870753-B21 or 870792-001, this disk is used in:

• HPE ProLiant Gen8 servers with SFF SmartCarrier bays
• HPE ProLiant Gen9 SFF servers
• HPE ProLiant Gen10 SFF servers

A bare disk needs a suitable carrier to fit a hot-plug bay. Check the label on your current drive, the server model and the controller, and ask us whether the unit you are buying is supplied with a carrier.

Related HPE Drives

The same 300GB 15K SmartCarrier drive is also sold as HPE 870753-S21. An earlier 300GB 12G SAS 15K 2.5in option is HPE 759208-B21 (refurbished).

If your server uses the older 6Gb/s generation of 300GB 15K disks, see HPE EH0300FBQDD, HPE 652611-B21 and HPE 653960-001. Carriers and trays are in our hard drive caddy section.

Right Drive Checklist

• The disk in your server reads EH000300JWKTN, or another model from the 870753-B21 family.
• The carrier label shows 870753-B21 or 870792-001.
• You know whether you need a complete drive in a carrier or a bare disk.
• Your ProLiant is Gen8, Gen9 or Gen10 with SFF bays.
• You have checked the array status in Smart Storage Administrator.

Repair The Drive, Keep The Server

A failed disk is one of the most common faults in any server, and it is also one of the cheapest to fix. A matching EH000300JWKTN restores the array to full health without touching the operating system, the licences or the network setup. For a server that otherwise runs well, that is a far better use of budget than an early replacement.
