HPE 960GB SFF SATA 6G Mixed Use BC Multi SSD

The HPE P40503-B21 is a 960GB solid state drive built for HPE servers and storage arrays that accept 2.5 inch small form factor bays. It uses a SATA 6 Gb/s interface, giving you an easy way to add flash capacity or replace legacy spinning disks without changing your existing cabling or controllers.

Engineered for mixed use workloads, the drive delivers up to 72,000 read IOPS and up to 31,000 write IOPS. This balanced performance keeps virtual machines responsive, helps transactional databases process queries quickly, and supports analytics jobs that read and write to the same data set. With an endurance rating of 3.4 drive writes per day, the drive can handle heavy traffic throughout the workday and overnight backup windows.

The hot swap capability, combined with an HPE Basic Carrier, lets you insert or replace the drive while the server stays online. That convenience is ideal for clustered hosts, edge appliances, or branch office systems where scheduled downtime is hard to justify.

HPE adds protection on two fronts. Digitally signed firmware helps guard against unauthorized code, and a three year limited warranty backs the hardware. Together they provide the assurance IT teams need when deploying storage in production environments.
