3.5-inch 480GB Enterprise SSD

This HP P05928-B21 is a 3.5-inch internal solid-state drive with a 480GB capacity built for enterprise workloads. It connects through a SATA III interface and delivers up to 68,000 random read IOPS and 17,500 random write IOPS. The drive measures 7.00mm in height and is designed to fit standard 3.5-inch drive bays in servers or storage arrays.

Check 3.5-inch bay and SATA III port

Before ordering, confirm that your chassis has an available 3.5-inch drive bay with the correct mounting points for a 7.00mm height drive. Verify that your backplane or motherboard provides a SATA III data connection and matching power connector. Ensure your storage controller or operating system supports the drive’s reported performance figures for random read and write operations.

Sustained enterprise random I/O

Under sustained load, the drive maintains its rated random read performance of up to 68,000 IOPS and random write performance of up to 17,500 IOPS for 4KB blocks. These figures reflect steady-state enterprise operation rather than short burst speeds. The SATA III interface provides consistent throughput for mixed read and write workloads typical in server environments.

Questions about this item

Does the HP P05928-B21 ship with a mounting bracket or SATA cables, or must those be purchased separately?

The drive is supplied as a bare 3.5" unit. Mounting hardware and SATA data or power cables are not included and must be sourced separately.

Is the 480 GB capacity the only option for the P05928-B21, or are larger versions sold under the same part number?

Part number P05928-B21 identifies the 480 GB model only. Different capacities carry different part numbers, so this SKU cannot be ordered in a larger size.

What does the 68,000 IOPS random-read figure mean for everyday server workloads?

The 68,000 IOPS rating reflects peak 4 KB random-read performance over SATA III. Real-world throughput will vary with queue depth, controller and workload mix.
