HPE 480GB SATA 2.5" SFF Smart Carrier SSD

This HPE solid-state drive provides 480GB of storage over a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. It uses a 2.5-inch SFF form factor with an integrated Smart Carrier for hot-swap installation. The drive is designed for mixed-use workloads in compatible HPE ProLiant servers.

Operating power consumption 1.12 W thermals

The SSD draws 1.12 W during operation, contributing to low heat output in the drive bay. Solid-state construction eliminates mechanical noise associated with spinning disks. Hot-swap capability allows replacement without powering down the server.

Mixed Use endurance rating

The drive carries a Mixed Use endurance classification suited to balanced read and write workloads. Buyers who need write-intensive endurance or higher capacity should verify requirements against this specification. Compatibility is confirmed for HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 Server.

Questions about this item

How is the 2.5" SFF Smart Carrier SSD installed in a ProLiant DL360 Gen10, and what step is often missed?

Slide the carrier into a hot-swap bay until the latch clicks; the step often missed is fully seating the carrier so the SATA connector engages completely.

What maintenance or replacement will the 480GB mixed-use drive need later?

Mixed-use NAND wears with write cycles; monitor SMART wear indicators and replace the drive once the endurance threshold is reached.

What limit appears first on the 480GB SATA 6.0Gb/s SSD during sustained heavy writes?

The 6.0Gb/s SATA interface caps sequential throughput, so sustained write speeds plateau at the interface ceiling before the controller or NAND saturates.
