Searching for an optical drive for your HPE ProLiant server?

The DVD-RW drive is capable of reading DVD 4.7 GB through 8.5 GB media. It can also read standard stamped, CD-R, and CD-RW media. This drive supports writing to CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R/RW, and DVD-R/RW media via software utilities. For Microsoft® operating systems, this is available by installing the included Roxio software disk. For other operating systems, an operating system-specific software utility is required for writing to media.

The DVD-ROM drive is designed to read not only CD-ROM and CD-R/RW discs but also DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW discs.

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

HPE Mission Critical Hard Drives offer a high level of performance and reliability for your most demanding application workloads. They help you improve server response times, power more transactions per second, and accelerate data transfer (I/O) speeds. HPE Mission Critical Hard Drives are available in 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF). 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 also 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 read-intensive workloads need consistently high performance from a Solid State Drive with low latency and reduced power consumption?

HPE SATA M.2 Read Intensive (RI) Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver enterprise features and performance at an affordable price for workloads high in reads such as boot/swap, web servers, and read caching. Hewlett Packard Enterprise SSDs are backed by over 3 million hours of testing and qualification in various environments, certifying reliable, high-performing drives. HPE Digitally Signed Firmware prevents unauthorized access to your data by verifying that drive firmware comes from a trusted source. HPE SATA M.2 RI SSDs achieve higher Input/Output Per Second (IOPs) to enhance the performance of your data center, giving you faster access to data with excellent latency. With reduced power consumption, it provides improved IOPS/W versus rotating media and reduces datacenter cooling costs.

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

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 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 read intensive applications?

HPE Value SAS Read Intensive (RI) SSDs optimize your enterprise with faster 12 Gb data transfer rates and near price parity compared to enterprise 6 Gb SATA SSDs. HPE Value SAS RI SSDs deliver enterprise features at an affordable price for applications requiring high random read IOPS performance, and are ideal for read caching, social media and web servers workloads.

HPE Value SAS RI 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 RI SSDs provide slightly reduced performance in exchange for being price competitive to 6 Gb SATA SSDs.

HPE Value SAS RI 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 RI SSDs.

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

HPE NVMe M.2 Mainstream Intensive Solid State Drives (SSDs) offer enterprise customers high performance with consistently low latency for faster business outcomes. Solid state drives deliver faster load times for today's demanding applications and workloads. Because of the technology used, SSDs are lighter and better able to withstand movement and droppage. In addition, solid state drives use less energy, allowing computers to run cooler. Because SSDs use nonvolatile storage media that stores persistent data on solid-state flash memory, file copy/write speeds are faster as well.

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

HPE SAS Read Intensive (RI) Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver enterprise features at an affordable price for applications requiring high read IOPS performance. HPE Enterprise SAS RI SSDs transfer data at full duplex (bidirectional) allowing greater I/O bandwidth to alleviate bottlenecks at twice the 6Gb interface of SATA drives.

HPE SAS RI SSDs are best suited for mission-critical enterprise applications requiring a strong blend of high read IOPS and low latency. HPE Enterprise SAS RI SSDs are ideal for read caching, social media, web servers and boot/swap workloads.

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