Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this drive compatible with standard SATA ports?

No, this is a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) drive and requires a SAS-compatible controller or backplane.

What is the primary use case for this SSD?

It is best suited for enterprise server or workstation storage, particularly for environments requiring high-speed data access like the MSA-SAS series.

Does this drive come with a mounting bracket?

The drive features a standard 2.5-inch form factor; however, check if your specific server chassis requires an HPE Smart Carrier (SC) tray for hot-swapping.

What is the maximum data transfer rate of this drive?

The drive supports a maximum interface data transfer rate of 12 Gbit/s.

Can I use this in a home desktop computer?

Only if your desktop is equipped with a dedicated SAS HBA or RAID controller card.

How do I update the drive firmware?

Firmware updates are typically managed through the HPE Intelligent Provisioning or the Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP).

Troubleshooting

Drive not detected by server BIOS/Controller

Verify the drive is fully seated in the bay and ensure your controller supports the SAS protocol.

Drive status LED flashing amber

Check the RAID controller logs via the management interface; an amber light often indicates a predictive failure or a degraded status.

Slow performance during high activity

Ensure the SAS controller is configured for optimal cache settings and verify that the drive is not being bottlenecked by an older generation HBA.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-speed 12 Gbit/s SAS throughput
  • Validated for HPE MSA-SAS storage architectures
  • Lower latency compared to HDD equivalents
  • Compact 2.5-inch form factor for space-constrained racks

Cons

  • Not compatible with standard SATA interfaces
  • Requires SAS-capable controller
  • Higher cost per gigabyte compared to mechanical storage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this drive, ensure your server or storage chassis is powered down and the backplane is configured for SAS drives. Insert the drive into an available 2.5-inch bay until the latch clicks, confirming the connector is fully seated. Ensure your RAID controller or HBA is updated with the latest firmware to recognize the drive's telemetry data correctly. For maintenance, keep the server air intake clear to prevent thermal throttling and ensure the drive firmware is updated periodically through the HPE Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) to ensure optimal health and performance.
