Enterprise SAS SSD for read-intensive workloads

The HP PM1643a MZILT3T8HBLS is a 3.84TB 2.5in enterprise solid state drive with a SAS 12Gb/s interface. It uses 3D TLC NAND and delivers sustained sequential reads up to 2100 MB/s and writes up to 2000 MB/s. The drive is rated at 1 DWPD endurance with a 2,000,000 hour MTBF.

Suited for read-heavy server and storage arrays

This drive targets enterprise servers, storage arrays, cloud deployments and backup or archiving solutions where read performance and data integrity matter. Power loss protection and end-to-end data path protection guard data during unexpected outages. Buyers needing higher write endurance for mixed or write-intensive workloads should consider drives with a higher DWPD rating.

1 DWPD endurance rating defines write longevity

The single specification that determines suitability is the 1 drive write per day endurance rating. It quantifies the total bytes you can write each day over the warranty period without exceeding the NAND wear budget. Workloads that consistently exceed this write volume will wear the drive faster than rated.

Questions about this item

What does 2100 MB/s read speed mean once this drive is installed in a server?

It means the drive can stream data to the controller at up to 2100 MB/s for sustained sequential workloads, so large reads such as backup streams or analytics scans spend less time waiting on storage.

What does the SAS 12Gb/s interface cap in practice?

The 12Gb/s SAS link sets a theoretical ceiling of 12 Gb/s per lane; real-world throughput is limited by the drive's 2100 MB/s read and 2000 MB/s write ratings.

What does the 2.5in form factor need to fit or mount in my chassis?

It fits any standard 2.5in hot-swap bay or fixed cage that accepts a 15 mm enterprise SSD and uses the SAS connector layout defined for that form factor.
