Do you need more performance from your HP ProLiant Server series platforms?

HPE Server Mixed Use (MU) Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver high performance and endurance while reducing power consumption for customers with applications requiring high random read and write IOPs performance. HPE MU SSDs offer the highest performance applications that need a balance of strong read and write and they typically have an endurance of between <1 and <10 drive writes per day.

HPE SSDs are backed by over 2.4 million hours of the industry’s most rigorous testing and qualification program ensuring reliable, high performing drives. HPE integrated firmware protects data from malicious attacks that could change or destroy it.

The self-describing icons on the HPE SMART Carrier takes the guess work out of a drive’s status and a “do not remove” button prevents data loss from human error. You can monitor the lifespan of your SSD with HPE SmartSSD Wear Gauge compatibility in management tools.

These storage devices offer better I/O latency & more power efficient solutions when compared with traditional rotating (HDD) media, while also fitting seamlessly into existing HPE server & storage infrastructures, and are available in a number of form factors including:

•   ::  Small Form Factor (SFF),
•   ::  Large Form Factor (LFF),
•   ::  M.2,
•   ::  and PCIe/NVME Add-In-Cards (AIC).

HPE Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver exceptional performance and endurance for customers with applications requiring high random read IOPs performance. Leveraging NAND Flash technology, they support HPE ProLiant servers and serv er storage platforms. They are generally available as Small Form Factor (SFF) and Large Form Factor (LFF) hot plug devices, non - hot plug SFF devices, and SFF Quick Release devices.

These drives deliver higher performance, lower latency, and more power - effi cient solutions when compared with traditional rotating media. Plus they fit seamlessly into the existing HPE server infrastructure.

SmartDrive Carriers
HPE Hard Drives with smart carriers are designed to provide an interface to communicate critical status and management information. System status LED icons and a spinning activity ring reflecting the data-writing process notify users of the current system status. A blue LED located behind the handle can be activated remotely to guide users to a specific drive tray, while a do-not-remove icon positioned on the tray's eject button lights up to warn users when the removal of the drive would cause data loss.

Compatible with your server environment
HPE SSDs are fully tested and qualified to enable compatibility with HPE ProLiant, HPE Synergy, and HPE BladeSystem solutions. The HPE Qualified Option designation places HPE SSDs among the best of the best compared to products available on the open market. It is important to note that SSDs on the open market—even those with similar vendor model numbers—may not have the same level of performance, endurance, and quality as HPE Qualified Options.

For example, the NAND or even the controller in non-qualified products may be different from an HPE Qualified Option. HPE firmware optimizes our qualified SSD performance, wear leveling, and over-provisioning.

The right SSD for every application
HPE SSDs are available in three broad categories based on their typical target workloads: Read Intensive, Mixed Use, and Write Intensive. Simply choose the category that best fits your business needs.
