HPE PM897 960 GB SATA SSD
The HPE PM897 is a 2.5 inch enterprise solid state drive with a 960 GB capacity and a SATA 600 interface. It is built for mixed-use workloads and carries a 3 DWPD endurance rating. This drive targets data-centre operators who need consistent performance for analytics, cloud platforms, active archives, databases and warehousing.
Suits mixed-use server deployments
This drive suits administrators deploying HPE servers that require SATA 600 connectivity and mixed-use endurance. It is not for buyers who need a different physical form factor or a non-SATA interface. It is also not for workloads that demand endurance above the stated 3 DWPD level.
3 DWPD endurance rating
The 3 DWPD rating is the single specification that determines whether this SSD matches the write intensity of the target application. Workloads that stay within this endurance bound will receive the published performance and reliability; heavier write workloads will exceed the drive's design limits.

Questions about this item
Does this 2.5" SATA 600 drive need a specific drive bay or caddy to fit in my server?
It fits any standard 2.5" SATA hot-plug bay; the server chassis or backplane supplies both power and the 6 Gb/s data connection.
Can I mix this 960 GB PM897 with older 1 DWPD SATA SSDs in the same RAID array?
Yes, it shares the SATA 600 interface, but the array will be limited by the lowest endurance and performance of the mixed drives.
How do I confirm the drive is delivering its rated 3 DWPD endurance after installation?
Monitor the SMART attributes for media wear indicator and lifetime writes; they should track in line with 3 DWPD over the warranty period.
