FAQs

Q: Is this drive hot-plug?
A: Yes, the LP carrier is designed for hot-plug operation in compatible LFF backplanes.

Q: How does LP differ from SC carriers?
A: LP carriers have a simplified bezel without the full LED set; SC carriers include status LEDs and a full handle. Choose the carrier required by your chassis.

Q: Does 512e work with my OS?
A: Modern OS and hypervisors support 512e. For legacy stacks, confirm controller and OS support before deployment.

Q: Is the SAS interface dual-port?
A: Yes. SAS provides two independent ports for redundant paths on supported systems.

Q: What is Instant Secure Erase (ISE)?
A: ISE enables rapid sanitization of user data to securely repurpose or retire the drive.

Q: Can I mix LP and SC carriers in the same server?
A: Only if the chassis accepts both carrier types. Follow your server’s drive carrier requirements to ensure proper fit and airflow.
