HPE 400 GB SAS 12Gb/s SFF SSD

This HPE 400 GB solid-state drive uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and a 2.5 inch SFF form factor with a Smart Carrier. It is built for mixed-use workloads that demand a balance of high random read and write IOPS performance. The drive carries a 3 DWPD endurance rating and digitally signed firmware for data integrity.

Suited for mixed-use server workloads

This drive fits servers needing hot-pluggable SAS storage with 400 GB capacity and 12Gb/sec transfer rate. It draws 4.20 W during operation and measures 0.6 in height, 3 in width and 4.7 in depth. Buyers whose servers lack SAS 12Gb/s backplanes or 2.5 inch SFF bays cannot install this device.

Interface and carrier decide compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the SAS 12Gb/s interface combined with the Smart Carrier. Only systems designed for SAS 12Gb/s SFF hot-swap drives with this carrier type will accept the part.

Questions about this item

How often will the 400GB SAS drive need replacement under heavy write workloads?

The drive is rated for 3 DWPD endurance, meaning it can sustain full-capacity writes daily for the warranty period before wear becomes a concern.

What performance limit appears first when the 12Gb/s SAS SSD runs sustained mixed workloads?

The 12Gb/s SAS interface caps peak throughput, so the interface bandwidth ceiling is reached before the NAND flash saturates under continuous mixed read/write traffic.

How much heat does the 4.20 W drive add to a server chassis running all day?

At 4.20 W operating power the drive contributes minimal heat, and the 2.5" SFF form factor allows dense airflow in hot-swap bays.
