Drives and Storage

HPE SATA Mixed Use (MU) Solid State Drives (SSD) deliver enterprise features at an affordable price. HPE SATA MU SSDs are engineered for greater performance and endurance for applications requiring a more balanced mix of high random read and write IOPS performance such as database, virtualization, cloud computing and transactional applications.

HPE Value SAS 12G SSDs offer higher performance than 6G SATA SSDs at a lower cost than traditional 12G SAS SSDs, enabling you to improve total cost of ownership (TCO) with affordable HPE Value SAS SSDs.

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

HPE NVMe High Performance Mixed Use (MU) SSDs are best suited for high I/O applications that require a balanced performance between reads and writes to deliver high performance and endurance for data intensive applications. NVMe High Performance MU SSDs communicate directly to applications via the PCIe bus to boost I/O bandwidth and reduce latency.

HPE NVMe High Performance MU SSDs deliver high performance, lower latency data transfers from storage significantly faster than SAS or SATA SSDs. Utilizes the high bandwidth of PCIe Gen3 and PCIe Gen4 in select servers for mixed use workloads such as Big Data analytics, HPC and virtualization.

HPE SSDs are backed by up to 3.35 million hours of testing and qualification¹ ensuring reliable, high performing drives. HPE Digitally Signed Firmware prevents unauthorized access to data by providing the assurance that drive firmware comes from a trusted source.

Do you need to accelerate the performance of your read intensive applications?

HPE NVMe High Performance Read Intensive (RI) Solid State Drives (SSDs) are best suited for applications requiring a strong blend of high read IOPS, low latency and high endurance at a strong price point. NVMe SSDs communicate directly to applications via the PCIe bus to boost I/O bandwidth and reduce latency.

HPE NVMe High Performance RI SSDs provide high-performance data transfers from storage, at rates faster than SAS or SATA SSDs. Designed to utilize the high bandwidth of PCIe Gen3 and PCIe Gen4 in select servers for workloads high in reads such as read caching, web servers and boot/swap.

HPE SSDs are backed by up to 3.35 million hours of testing and qualification [1} ensuring reliable, high performing drives. HPE Digitally Signed Firmware prevents unauthorized access to data by providing the assurance that drive firmware comes from a trusted source.

HPE offers drives for all your storage needs.

The HPE XP7 Flash Module Device is a FMD unique to XP7. It combines MLC NAND flash and a SAS interface with a custom ASIC controller for superior flash performance. The FMD form factor is larger than traditional SSD and therefore is available in capacities of 1.7 TB, 3.5 TB, 7 TB and 14 TB. They are configurable in a variety of RAID types in the same fashion as other drives and is compatible with all XP7 firmware and software features.

The XP7 Flash Module Device supports wear levelling. In a flash memory each write or erase cycle stresses the cell which in turn causes deterioration of the cell over time. This might cause an imbalance in the cell activity which creates an irregular distribution of these unstable cells thereby impacting the life of flash.

The flash controller monitors the number of writes, erasures and refreshes to eliminate these imbalances by balancing the rate of deterioration in the flash memory cells. This helps in extending the useful lifetime of flash.
