Purpose-built enterprise SSD

The HPE P09716-B21 is a 960GB 2.5-inch internal solid-state drive with a SATA 600 interface and a 7.00mm height. It carries digitally signed firmware and a hot-pluggable carrier designed for HPE server bays. Mixed-use endurance is rated at 3.5 drive writes per day.

Suited for balanced read-write workloads

This drive targets applications that need a balance of high random read and write IOPS performance, reaching up to 80,000 read and 31,000 write IOPS at 4KB. Active power draw is 1.12W. It is not for buyers who need higher capacity than 960GB, a different interface than SATA, or drives rated for write-intensive endurance above 3.5 DWPD.

The interface decides compatibility

The SATA III connection determines whether this SSD fits the server backplane and controller. Verify the bay accepts a 2.5-inch 7.00mm SATA drive with a carrier before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does my server need a 2.5-inch SATA hot-plug bay to install the P09716-B21?

Yes, the drive uses a 2.5-inch SATA III interface and includes a carrier for hot-plug bays, so the server must provide a compatible SATA backplane slot.

Can I mix this 960GB mixed-use SSD with older SATA drives in the same array?

It operates at SATA 600 speeds with up to 80,000 random read IOPS and 31,000 write IOPS; the array will run at the slowest drive's performance and endurance level.

How do I verify the P09716-B21 is healthy after installation?

Check the HPE Smart Storage Administrator or iLO interface for drive status, confirm the 960GB capacity appears, and monitor SMART attributes for media wear against the 3.5 DWPD rating.
