HPE P03799-001 StoreServ 8000 1.8TB HDD

HPE P03799-001 3PAR StoreServ 8000 1.8TB 10K SAS SFF Spare Drive

HPE P03799-001 is a spare part number for the 1.8TB, 10,000 rpm, 2.5 inch SAS hard drive used in HPE 3PAR StoreServ 8000 storage. Resellers list it under the option kit K2P94B, the 3PAR 8000 1.8TB 10K SFF HDD, and it comes fitted in the 3PAR 8000 drive carrier.

If an HPE service ticket or your array’s own alert has named P03799-001, this is the part to look for. It is aimed at administrators and maintenance providers who keep 3PAR 8200, 8400 and 8440 systems running and need a correct, drop-in disk for a failed slot.

The P03799-001 can be ordered through Euroland IT Store in New or Refurbished condition, subject to current stock.

HPE P03799-001 Technical Specifications

What Is The HPE P03799-001?

HPE sells storage drives under an option number and services them under a spare number. For the 1.8TB 10K 3PAR 8000 drive, the option is K2P94B, and resellers list several spares against it: P03799-001, 810760-001, 840460-001 and P20077-001. P03799-001 is one of these, so a drive carrying this label is the same class of disk the array was built with.

The exact number helps because 3PAR is strict about what it will admit. HPE QuickSpecs state that 3PAR 8000 drives are only compatible with 8000 SAS drive enclosures. Ordering a generic 1.8TB 10K drive, or one meant for an MSA or ProLiant server, will leave you with a disk the array rejects.

How 3PAR Handles A Failed Disk

3PAR arrays do not rely on a single dedicated hot spare in the way many smaller arrays do. Each physical disk is divided into small units called chunklets, and some of these are reserved as spare space across many drives. When a disk fails, the array rebuilds the lost chunklets onto that reserved space spread over the other disks, which shares the work and shortens the rebuild.

That means your data is usually protected again before you even fit the replacement. Installing a P03799-001 then restores the spare capacity, and the array can move data back to balance the load. It is still worth replacing promptly, as the system has less spare space until you do.

New HPE P03799-001

New P03799-001 drives suit organisations with policies that require unused replacement parts, or anyone keeping a sealed spare for a critical array. How long the cover lasts on a sealed 3PAR spare is set out on its listing.

Refurbished HPE P03799-001

Refurbished drives are a cost-effective choice for 3PAR 8000 systems in their later years, especially those on third-party maintenance. Refer to the product page for the condition and warranty that apply.

P03799-001 FAQs

What option kit goes with P03799-001?

Resellers list P03799-001 as a spare for option K2P94B, the HPE 3PAR 8000 1.8TB 10K SFF hard drive.

Will P03799-001 fit my 3PAR 7400?

No, HPE states 3PAR 8000 drives are only compatible with 8000 SAS drive enclosures, so a 7000 series array needs its own drive type.

Should my P03799-001 be New or Refurbished?

New is best where policy demands unused parts, while Refurbished keeps older arrays supported at lower cost; availability varies.

Where is the warranty for P03799-001 shown?
