HPE Read Intensive – SSD – 960 GB – Hot-Swap – 2,5 SFF – SATA 6Gb/s – HPE SmartDrive Carrier 869384-B21

Server workloads that demand high read throughput and consistent low latency can overwhelm conventional SATA SSDs. The HPE 960GB Read Intensive SATA SSD addresses this by pairing 3D TLC NAND with a digitally signed firmware and a robust 1752 TBW endurance rating, so your ProLiant Gen9/Gen10 servers keep serving data without storage bottlenecks.

Who is it for

IT administrators and data center operators running read-heavy applications such as web servers, media streaming, boot volumes, and virtualized environments. It is a drop-in upgrade for HPE ProLiant Gen9, Gen10, and newer servers that accept 2.5-inch SFF hot-swap drives with the SmartDrive carrier.

Main features

• 960 GB capacity in a 2.5-inch SFF form factor with hot-swap support for uninterrupted service.
• SATA 6Gb/s interface with sequential read speeds up to 530 MB/s and write speeds up to 490 MB/s.
• Read-intensive workload optimization with 3D TLC NAND and endurance of 1752 TBW.
• HPE SmartDrive carrier with digitally signed firmware for enhanced data integrity and compatibility.
• Mean time between failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours and average active power consumption of 3.2 W.
