P2474A – HP 36.4GB Ultra3 SCSI 10K RPM Low-Profile Hard Drive

BRAND NEW WITH FULL HPE WARRANTY!!!

Overview

The P2474A HP 36.4GB Ultra3 SCSI 10K RPM Low-Profile Hard Drive is a legacy enterprise storage drive designed for compatible HP NetServer systems, including the LP1000r and LP2000r. It provides 36.4GB of storage capacity and uses a Wide Ultra3 SCSI interface with a rotational speed of 10,000 RPM.

Designed for legacy server environments, this drive is suitable for organizations maintaining older infrastructure, restoring supported systems, or replacing a failed drive in an existing compatible configuration. Its low-profile design supports installation in the appropriate drive bay, subject to the server's drive cage and connector requirements.

The P2474A is intended for legacy hardware maintenance rather than new high-capacity storage deployments. Buyers should verify the exact server model, SCSI connector, drive carrier, and product condition before ordering.
