Server-grade 3.20 TB PCIe x4 SSD

The HPE P13701-B21 delivers 3.20 TB of mixed-use flash storage for enterprise servers. Its PCI Express x4 interface provides high-throughput, low-latency access for databases, virtualization and analytics workloads. The drive is rated at 3.7 drive writes per day, targeting applications that balance read and write intensity. It is built for new deployments in supported server platforms.

2.5" hot-plug carrier at 0.6" height

A factory-fitted carrier enables tool-less insertion into standard 2.5-inch hot-plug bays, allowing replacement without powering down the chassis. The 0.6-inch z-height fits dense server sleds where vertical space is limited. PCI Express x4 signalling removes the need for separate power or data cables, simplifying cabling and improving airflow. Hot-plug capability reduces service windows during maintenance.

Carrier included for immediate installation

The bundled drive carrier means the SSD arrives ready to slide into a compatible bay without sourcing a separate tray. No additional mounting hardware or software utilities are supplied, so administrators rely on the server firmware and operating system for configuration and monitoring. This keeps deployment straightforward in homogeneous HPE environments.

Questions about this item

What does the PCI Express x4 interface cap the drive at in practice?

The x4 lane width limits throughput to the PCIe generation supported by the host slot.

What physical space and mounting does the 2.5" drive with carrier need?

It fits a standard 2.5-inch bay, is 0.6 inch high and weighs 1.10 lb with the carrier attached.

How is the drive installed and what step is often missed?

Insert the carrier into a hot-plug bay until it clicks; the latch must fully engage or the drive will not be recognised.
