Accelerate boot and application load times in HP ProLiant server environments by replacing mechanical drives with this 300GB SSD, improving overall system responsiveness.
Deploy in vSphere, Hyper-V, or KVM hypervisor hosts to reduce VM I/O latency and improve consolidation ratios through faster storage performance.
Enhance SQL Server, Oracle, or PostgreSQL performance by using this SSD for hot data, transaction logs, or working sets to reduce query execution times.
Serve as intermediate backup storage tier in HP ProLiant servers running backup software, enabling faster backup windows and recovery operations.
Provide reliable, hot-swappable storage for clustered applications requiring minimal downtime during drive maintenance or replacement cycles.
Balance cost and performance in general-purpose enterprise servers running diverse workloads including file services, print servers, and application hosting.
The HP 692318-001 delivers a SATA 3Gb/s (375 MB/s) data transfer rate. This interface speed is suitable for sequential workloads and general-purpose server storage, though it is lower than modern 6Gb/s SATA or SAS interfaces. For latency-sensitive applications, the MLC NAND provides faster random access compared to mechanical drives.
Yes, the Smart Carrier (SC) design enables hot-swappable operation in compatible HP ProLiant servers. This allows drive replacement without powering down the system, minimizing downtime during maintenance. Verify your server model supports hot-swap SSD operation before deployment.
The 692318-001 is compatible with HP ProLiant DX, DL, ML, SL, BL, XL, and CL series servers. Specific compatibility depends on the server generation and available drive bays. Consult HP's ProLiant compatibility matrix or your server's documentation to confirm support for 2.5-inch SFF SATA drives.
The HP 692318-001 uses Multi-Level Cell (MLC) NAND flash technology. MLC stores multiple bits per cell, offering a balance between performance and endurance compared to SLC (higher cost, higher endurance) or TLC (lower cost, lower endurance). MLC is well-suited for enterprise midline workloads.
Compared to 15K RPM SAS drives, the 692318-001 offers significantly lower latency, faster random I/O, and reduced power consumption. The 300GB capacity matches enterprise-class mechanical drives, making it a direct replacement option. SATA 3Gb/s throughput is lower than 6Gb/s SAS, but sufficient for most server workloads.
The HP 692318-001 uses a 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF) design, the standard for enterprise SSDs and laptop drives. This compact size enables high-density storage configurations in 2U and 1U ProLiant servers with multiple drive bays, compared to larger 3.5-inch form factors.
The HP 692318-001 is a legacy enterprise SSD from the HP 320 Series. Modern replacements include HP 6Gb/s SATA SSDs and NVMe M.2 drives offering higher performance. For new deployments, evaluate current HP or HPE SSD offerings; for existing ProLiant systems, the 692318-001 remains a viable upgrade option.
