Hard drive for DL360p Gen8

[William2015]

Hello,

Right now there are two hard drives (model:EG0300FBVFL) in my DL360p. It's set up as RAID1.
I want to buy 3 more 600GB hard drives and set up as RAID 5. I goolge "hp g8 600-gb 6g 10k 2.5 sas" to shop.
It comes out many hard drives with different modle number. Some of them are like this:
652583-B21-SC
652583-S21-sc

I am confused and I don't want to buy a wrong model. Can you tell me which one I should buy? Also any info of setting up a RAID 5 for the machine will be great. Thanks in advance.

Hi William,

The "SC" stands for "smart carrier", but isn't part of the actual option number, which should be 652583-B21 (or S21 for the 'smart buy' version).

The complete list of compatible drives for the DL360p Gen8 is here:

You'll find the 600GB 6G 10K drive (652583-B21) under the heading 6G 10K Drives
