What servers support the HPE P26109-B21 SSD?

Compatible with HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen10 Plus and select Gen10 Plus platforms supporting 8SFF/24SFF NVMe U.3 configurations. Requires PCIe Gen4-capable backplane and latest iLO firmware for full Smart Carrier diagnostics and health monitoring.

What is the endurance rating of this drive?

Read Intensive class with 1 DWPD rating over 5 years, optimized for workloads with 70-90% read activity like virtualization, databases, and caching. Total Bytes Written exceeds 28,000 TB based on capacity and endurance specifications.

Does this SSD support dual-port operation?

Yes, U.3 interface provides dual-port redundancy for high availability clusters. Enables failover between controller paths without data interruption, critical for mission-critical enterprise applications requiring five-nines uptime.

What form factor and carrier does it use?

2.5-inch SFF (15mm z-height) in HPE Smart Carrier (SC) with hot-plug capability and tri-color LED status indicators. Fully compatible with standard NVMe drive cages in ProLiant Gen10 Plus servers.

Is the firmware HPE-qualified?

Digitally Signed (DS) firmware validated by HPE for secure boot and interoperability. Prevents unauthorized modifications and ensures full iLO integration for predictive analytics and firmware updates.

What performance tier is PM1733 technology?

High Performance Read Intensive tier from Samsung, delivering PCIe Gen4 speeds with optimized random/sequential reads for enterprise servers. Excels in VDI, SQL query serving, and analytics over mixed-use or write-intensive alternatives.

Product overview

The HPE P26109-B21 is a 15.36TB NVMe PCIe Gen4 Read Intensive Solid State Drive in a Small Form Factor (SFF) SC U.3 hot-plug carrier, based on Samsung PM1733 technology. Designed for HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus servers like DL325, it provides high-capacity storage with optimized read performance for enterprise workloads including virtualization, databases, and analytics. The U.3 interface supports PCIe 4.0 x4 connectivity delivering superior sequential and random read speeds suitable for read-heavy applications. As a digitally signed firmware (DS) drive with TLC NAND, it ensures compatibility and reliability in HPE managed environments via iLO. The read-intensive rating targets 1 DWPD endurance, balancing capacity, performance, and cost for mixed server deployments. Hot-plug design enables seamless maintenance without downtime. Compatible with 8SFF/24SFF NVMe configurations in 1U rack servers, it supports up to 92.16TB per chassis in high-density setups. Ideal for VMware vSphere, SQL Server, and big data environments requiring consistent low-latency I/O across multiple VMs or containers.
