SKU CH-KTXY-TK1C0

A 480 GB 2.5-inch SAS 12Gb/s internal solid-state drive, hot-pluggable for server use

  • 480 GB capacity meets read-intensive server workloads
  • 12Gb/s SAS interface delivers consistent throughput for enterprise arrays
  • 5" form factor fits dense hot-plug drive bays
  • Hot-pluggable design allows replacement without server downtime
  • HPE 875311-B21 validated for ProLiant server compatibility

Capacity and interface

The HPE 875311-B21 is a 480 GB solid state drive with a 2.5 inch form factor and a SAS 12Gb/s interface. It is built for internal server deployment and supports hot-pluggable installation.

Upgrade path

This drive replaces a lower-capacity or slower SAS SSD in compatible server bays. The jump is worthwhile when workloads demand the 12Gb/s SAS throughput and the 480 GB capacity fits the application dataset.

Fit and alternatives

It suits administrators expanding or refreshing HPE server storage with a hot-pluggable SAS device. Buyers needing a different interface, a larger capacity, or a non-hot-plug form factor should consider other options.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5" form factor fit my server's hot-plug drive bay?

Yes, the 2.5" form factor matches standard hot-plug SAS bays in HPE servers; the drive slides directly into the carrier without an adapter.

What is the correct way to seat the SAS connector during a hot-plug installation?

Insert the drive until the SAS connector fully engages the backplane, then press the release latch until it clicks; incomplete seating causes link errors at 12Gb/s.

How do I know when the 480 GB drive should be replaced?

Monitor the SMART wear indicator via the server management console; replace the drive when the percentage used approaches the rated endurance limit.
