Product overview

The HPE P48072-001 is a 7.68TB NVMe Gen4 Mainstream Performance Read Intensive Small Form Factor (SFF) SSD with Basic Carrier (BC) and U.3 interface, designed for HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus and later mainstream compute platforms. This multi-vendor drive provides high-capacity storage optimized for read-heavy workloads, delivering sequential reads up to 5900 MB/s, random read IOPS of 950,000 at Q256, and random write IOPS of 190,000. With 1 DWPD endurance rating and 14,016 TBW lifetime writes, it supports consistent performance in enterprise environments including data analytics, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), high-performance databases, and virtualization platforms like VMware vSphere. Featuring NVMe protocol over PCIe Gen4 U.3 interface, the drive ensures low latency, high queue depth, and compatibility with flexible server backplanes. Hot-pluggable design with 15mm height and 15.28W power consumption enables easy maintenance without downtime. Enterprise data protection includes end-to-end path protection, power-loss protection, advanced ECC, and integration with HPE InfoSight for predictive failure analysis. Ideal for reducing storage complexity in read-intensive applications, it lowers TCO through high density and reliability in HPE rack/tower servers.
