| Description: | Buy HPE P28352-B21 2.4TB SAS 10K 512E Server Hard Drive. Genuine part with fast worldwide shipping from Euroland IT Store UK. |
| Availability: | In Stock |
The HPE P28352-B21 is a 2.4TB Mission Critical hard drive for HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers. It is a 2.5 inch small form factor drive that spins at 10,000 rpm, connects at 12Gb/s SAS and uses 512e sector format. It ships in the HPE Basic Carrier (BC), the drive carrier used across these newer ProLiant generations.
At 2.4TB, it sits at the high-capacity end of the HPE 10K SFF range. It is well suited to virtualisation hosts, file and application servers and database workloads that need more space per bay than 1.2TB drives give, without moving to slower Midline disks. HPE sells it as a Multi Vendor part, meaning the drive inside may come from one of several approved manufacturers.
The P28352-B21 is available from Euroland IT Store as New or Refurbished, subject to current stock.

P28352-B21 is the HPE option kit number, used when the drive is sold for upgrades and new server builds. The HPE spare part number for the same drive is P30562-001. Parts data also lists assembly number P28354-001 and drive models EG002400JWJNN, EG002400JWJNT and EG002400JXLWC, which reflect the different suppliers behind this Multi Vendor kit.
The exact number is important because HPE sold earlier 2.4TB 10K drives in the SmartDrive Carrier for Gen9 and Gen10, such as 881457-B21. The drive inside may be similar, but the carrier is different. A Gen10 drive will not slot into a Gen11 BC bay as supplied, and the reverse is also true.
High-capacity 10K drives commonly use 512e format. They store data in 4K physical sectors while presenting 512-byte logical blocks for compatibility. The storage controllers in Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers handle this format, and so do current server operating systems and hypervisors.
Two points are worth checking. First, make sure partitions are aligned to 4K boundaries, which modern installers do by default. Second, avoid mixing 512e and 512n drives in one logical drive, as this can cause controller warnings and uneven performance.
HPE introduced the Basic Carrier with ProLiant Gen10 Plus. It replaced the SmartDrive Carrier in most new servers and is also used in Gen11. Drive status is still reported through the server and HPE iLO, so you can identify and locate a failing disk remotely before going to the rack.
A New P28352-B21 is the obvious pick for populating a new Gen11 server, expanding a production cluster or holding a sealed spare. The product page details the condition and warranty on New units.
Refurbished drives give a lower-cost option for replacing a failed 2.4TB disk or for adding capacity to test and development hosts. Read the product page for the condition and warranty that come with Refurbished units.
Compatibility lists from resellers and parts databases are not always complete. Check your server model, drive cage and controller, and the label on any drive you are replacing.

Large 10K drives let you build sizeable arrays in a 1U or 2U server. With eight 2.4TB drives in RAID 6, for example, you get roughly 14.4TB of raw usable space before formatting, while surviving two drive failures. Rebuild times grow with drive size, so RAID 6 or RAID 60 is usually a safer choice than RAID 5 at this capacity.
We supply UK businesses, IT departments, resellers and repair firms with current-generation HPE drives. Check the product page for up-to-date condition, warranty, stock and delivery information. Shipping is free to the UK mainland on orders over £100 + VAT. Tell our team your server model and the part numbers on your existing drive, or call 0203 209 6002, and we will confirm the fit.
The P28352-B21 is listed for HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers with SFF Basic Carrier bays, including the DL360, DL380 and ML350 Gen11, but please check your exact model.
Standard Gen10 servers use the SmartDrive Carrier, so the Basic Carrier P28352-B21 will not fit those bays as supplied; a 2.4TB SC drive is the right choice there.
New is best for new servers and production clusters, while Refurbished is a cost-effective choice for replacing a failed drive or for test hosts.
The warranty depends on the condition purchased and is listed on the product page, so check there or ask our team.
