FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT MB004000JWFVH
What is the difference between MB004000JWFVH, 872487-B21 and 872745-001?
They are three numbers for the same physical drive. MB004000JWFVH, this page, is a model number: the identifier on the drive label used by the manufacturer. 872487-B21 is the HPE option number, the orderable configuration used when the drive is bought as a standalone kit. 872745-001 is the HPE spare number used for replacement units. Beyond these, the family also includes one assembly revision and six OEM drive models, all listed in the cross-reference block on this page.
What is an assembly part number, and what is an OEM model number?
An assembly part number identifies a specific build revision of the drive as assembled by HPE, and it changes when the internal configuration is revised. An OEM model number, like MB004000JWFVH on this page, is the identifier the drive manufacturer prints on the label. Six OEM model numbers exist across this family because the same HPE-specified drive has been produced in more than one manufacturing variant, all functionally equivalent.
What are the interface and performance specifications of MB004000JWFVH?
MB004000JWFVH is a 4TB Serial Attached SCSI 3 hard drive with one SAS port rated at 12 Gb/s. Spindle speed is 7,200 rpm and the drive is formatted at 512 bytes per sector, placing it in the HPE Business Critical Midline class for capacity-oriented workloads rather than transactional performance. It is a hot-swap drive in the 3.5-inch large form factor, 8.9 cm, and fits 3.5" LFF bays.
Which HPE servers accept this drive?
MB004000JWFVH is supported in ProLiant DL60 Gen9, DL80 Gen9, DL120 Gen9, DL160 Gen9, DL180 Gen9, DL320e Gen8 v2, DL360e Gen8, DL360p Gen8, DL360 Gen9, DL360 Gen10, DL380e Gen8, DL380p Gen8, DL380 Gen9, DL380 Gen10, DL388 Gen9, ML150 Gen9, ML310e Gen8 v2, ML350p Gen8, ML350 Gen9, and the SL4540 Gen8 and SL4545 G7. The server must provide 3.5" LFF bays and a SAS controller.
What carrier does MB004000JWFVH ship on?
The drive is bundled with the HPE Smart Carrier, the 3.5-inch large form factor SC tray. The carrier is what allows the drive to be installed hot-swap into a supported LFF bay and carries the drive status indicators. The drive also uses digitally signed firmware, which allows the server to verify firmware authenticity before it is applied.
