HPE PartSurfer maps it to spare 834132-001: an 8TB SAS drive at 12 Gb/s and 7,200 RPM in a 3.5-inch Low Profile (LP) carrier, with 512e format and digitally signed firmware.
The carrier is what separates it from its closest twin. The same 8TB drive in an HPE Smart Carrier (SC) is option 819201-B21, spare 820032-001. HPE's carrier decoder lists LFF SC bays only for the ProLiant DL360 Gen10 and DL380 Gen10; Gen10 Plus and Gen11 rack servers, the DL160 and DL180 Gen10, and the ML350 Gen10 and Gen11 use LP. PartSurfer's where-used list for the spare matches: Apollo 4200 Gen9, ML350 Gen10, XL450 Gen10, DL360 Gen11 4LFF and DL380 Gen11 12LFF systems, and StoreEasy 1670.
HPE rates the drive at up to 230 MiB/s maximum outer-diameter media rate. 512e drives use 4K physical sectors behind 512-byte logical addressing, so check controller and OS support before adding one to an older array.
Siblings in the LP column: 833928-B21 (4TB), 861746-B21 (6TB), 881781-B21 (12TB helium) and P23608-B21 (16TB helium). The 8TB SATA 6G LP version is 834028-B21.
To confirm fit, look at an existing drive tray: LP carriers are slimmer than SC carriers and are not interchangeable. Then match the spare number on the drive label.
