Drives and Storage

Do your HPE servers and storage platforms need high capacity and proven performance hard drives to optimize your business critical data storage workloads?

HPE Business Critical Hard Drives are engineered to deliver the highest capacity, performance, reliability, and data security across your data center applications. HPE Business Critical Hard Drives allow you to store more data without sacrificing performance or reliability. HPE Business Critical Hard Drives are available in both 3.5-inch Large Form Factor (LFF) and 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF) and ship with a standard one-year warranty. All HPE hard drives pass a rigorous qualification process, which certify that every drive is proven to perform in your HPE server and storage environments. All HPE hard drives include digitally signed firmware which helps prevent unauthorized access to your data.

Do you need to accelerate the performance and deliver enterprise features at an affordable price?

HPE SATA Read Intensive (RI) Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver enterprise features at an affordable price. HPE SATA RI SSDs deliver great performance for workloads high in reads such as boot/swap, web servers, and read caching. HPE SSDs are backed by over 3.35 million hours of testing and qualification¹ ensuring reliable, high performing drives. HPE Digitally Signed Firmware prevents unauthorized access to your data by providing the assurance that drive firmware comes from a trusted source. You can also monitor the lifespan of your SSD with HPE SmartSSD Wear Gauge to determine if any drives are at risk of failure.

Do your servers need high-performance enterprise hard drives for both your mission-critical and I/O-intensive applications?

HPE Server Enterprise Hard Drives offer a high level of performance and reliability for your most demanding application workloads. Enterprise drives help you improve server response times, power more transactions per second, and accelerate data transfer (I/O) speeds. HPE Server Enterprise Hard Drives are backed by over 3.35 million hours of the industry's most rigorous testing and qualification program¹, helping ensure reliable, rugged drives. Prevent unauthorized access to your data with digitally signed firmware from HPE. It provides the security and assurance that drive firmware comes from a trusted source and protects against malicious attacks. The self-describing icons on the HPE Smart Carrier takes the guesswork out of a drive's status, and a “do not remove” button prevents data loss from human error.

Do you need to accelerate the performance of your mixed use applications?

HPE SAS Mixed Use (MU) Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver high performance and endurance for applications requiring high read and write IOPS performance. HPE Enterprise SAS MU SSDs transfer data at full duplex (bidirectional) allowing greater I/O bandwidth to alleviate bottlenecks at quadruple the 6Gb interface of SATA drives.

HPE Enterprise SAS MU SSDs are best suited for mission-critical applications requiring a balanced mix of read and write I/O to deliver significantly faster data transfers from storage than SATA SSDs. HPE SAS MU SSDs are ideal for big data analytics, high performance compute and virtualization workloads.

SAS technology continues to be the interface of choice for many workloads for its reliability and 24x7 operation in the enterprise data center.

Do you need to accelerate the performance of your mixed use applications?

HPE Value SAS Mixed Use (MU) SSDs optimize your enterprise with faster 12 Gb data transfer rates and near price parity compared to 6 Gb SATA SSDs. HPE Value SAS MU SSDs deliver enterprise features at an affordable price for applications requiring a balanced mix of read and write performance, and are ideal for database, transactional applications and virtualization workloads.

HPE Value SAS MU SSDs transfer data at 12 Gb full duplex (bidirectional) allowing greater I/O bandwidth to alleviate bottlenecks at twice the 6 Gb interface of SATA SSDs. A single-ported version of enterprise 12 Gb SAS, HPE Value SAS MU SSDs provide slightly reduced performance in exchange for being price competitive to enterprise SATA SSDs.

HPE Value SAS SSDs are presented as an HPE Multi Vendor SKU offering which provides customers with the shortest lead time to available supply on preferably priced HPE Value SAS SSDs.
