P1166A – HPE 18.2GB Ultra3 SCSI 10K RPM Low-Profile Hot-Swap Hard Drive Module

BRAND NEW WITH FULL HPE WARRANTY!!! 

Overview

The P1166A HPE 18.2GB Ultra3 SCSI 10K RPM Low-Profile Hot-Swap Hard Drive Module is a legacy enterprise storage component designed for compatible HP NetServer and HP Rack Storage systems. It provides 18.2GB of capacity, a 10,000 RPM rotational speed, and an Ultra3 SCSI interface for supported legacy server environments.

The complete module is listed as including the hard drive, hot-swap tray, SCA extender, and bezel spacer. This assembly supports replacement and maintenance in compatible systems, helping organizations keep older business infrastructure operational when matching replacement components are required.

The P1166A is intended primarily for legacy-system maintenance rather than new storage deployments. Before ordering, confirm the server or storage enclosure model, SCSI compatibility, and exact drive assembly requirements.

FAQs – HPE P1166A

1. What is the storage capacity of the P1166A?
The P1166A provides 18.2GB of storage capacity.

2. What interface and rotational speed does it use?
It uses an Ultra3 SCSI interface and operates at 10,000 RPM.

3. Does the P1166A include a drive tray?
The referenced product listing describes a module that includes the drive, hot-swap tray, SCA extender, and bezel spacer. Confirm the supplied contents with the seller.

4. Is this drive hot-swappable?
