What workloads is the P04594-001 optimized for?

This SSD targets read-intensive applications including OS boot drives, web servers, virtualization hosts, and read caching with up to 55,000 IOPS random read performance over SATA 6Gbps. Ideal for 80/20+ read/write ratio environments where cost-per-IOPS matters most.

Which HPE servers support this 3.5in LFF SSD?

Compatible with ProLiant Gen8/9/10 DL/ML series servers featuring standard 3.5in drive bays including DL380, DL360, DL580, and ML350 models. Uses standard LFF hot-swap carriers with 15mm height fitting all typical enterprise server chassis.

Does this drive require PCIe slots or special controllers?

No, uses standard SATA 6Gbps interface compatible with any ProLiant server onboard SATA controllers or RAID HBAs. Single-port design eliminates PCIe lane requirements, simplifying deployment across mixed server generations without controller upgrades.

What are the physical dimensions of this LFF SSD?

Standard 3.5-inch Large Form Factor with 15mm z-height, matching traditional enterprise HDD dimensions. Hot-swappable design works with HPE Smart Carriers and Basic Carriers in all ProLiant servers supporting 3.5in SAS/SATA bays.

Is this SSD hot-swappable in production servers?

Yes, fully hot-swap capable with proper server configuration. Integrates with HPE iLO for drive health monitoring and predictive failure alerts, enabling maintenance windows without host reboots in high-availability environments.

What NAND technology powers this read-intensive SSD?

Utilizes enterprise-grade TLC 3D NAND optimized for read endurance and consistent performance over multi-year deployments. Provides superior longevity compared to MLC in read-heavy workloads while maintaining SATA 6Gbps interface compatibility.
