HPE Mixed Use-3 240GB SATA 6Gb/ s

The HPE 816975-B21-RFB is an internal solid-state drive designed for enterprise server environments, featuring a 2.5-inch form factor (6.35 cm) and a storage capacity of 240 GB via SAS interface. This SSD offers enhanced performance and durability with reduced power consumption compared to traditional hard drives, making it suitable for applications with high IOPS values during random read and write operations. As a read-intensive drive optimized for predominantly read workloads, it is compatible with HPE ProLiant server series, including Gen9 models, and HPE Synergy platforms. Various installation options are supported, such as hot-plug devices in small form factor and large form factor, non-hot-plug SFF devices, as well as SFF quick release devices for flexible deployment. The NAND flash technology integrates HPE SmartSSD Wear Gauge compatibility to monitor SSD lifespan and prevent data loss through management tools. Self-descriptive LEDs clearly indicate drive activity, and the Power Advisor tool assists in power supply planning for the SSD and system. Data integrity is ensured through complete error detection in the data path, and power-loss protection safeguards data during unexpected power outages. With 2.4 million hours of validation testing, the drive demonstrates high reliability and tolerates significant operational shocks and vibrations in various data center environments. HPE firmware ensures compatibility with ProLiant server series and HP controllers for consistent performance delivery. This solid-state drive offers improved latency characteristics and more energy-efficient operation with reduced cooling requirements in the data center compared to traditional storage media.
