Product Overview to the HPE 480-GB SSD
The 698297-B21 HPE G8 G9 480-GB 2.5 SATA 3G MLC SSD is a solid-state drive (SSD) developed by Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (HPE) for use in enterprise-level server systems. It is designed to offer high-performance storage solutions with a high level of reliability and endurance, making it ideal for data-intensive applications that require fast and consistent data access.
In this article, we will take an in-depth look at the key features and specifications of the 698297-B21 HPE G8 G9 480-GB 2.5 SATA 3G MLC SSD, as well as its benefits and limitations. We will also discuss how it compares to other storage solutions in the market and its overall suitability for different use cases.
Capacity and Form Factor
The 698297-B21 HPE G8 G9 480-GB 2.5 SATA 3G MLC SSD has a storage capacity of 480 GB, which is considered to be sufficient for most enterprise-level applications. It is designed in a 2.5-inch form factor, which is compatible with most server systems, including HPE's G8 and G9 ProLiant servers.
Interface and Speed
The 698297-B21 HPE G8 G9 480-GB 2.5 SATA 3G MLC SSD uses the Serial ATA (SATA) interface to connect with the host system. It supports SATA 3Gbps (SATA II) transfer speeds, which offer up to 300 MB/s of read and write throughput. While not as fast as newer interfaces such as SATA III or NVMe, SATA II is still widely used in enterprise-level systems and provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for storage.
Multi-Level Cell (MLC) Technology
The 698297-B21 HPE G8 G9 480-GB 2.5 SATA 3G MLC SSD uses Multi-Level Cell (MLC) technology to store data. MLC technology uses multiple levels of charge to represent different values, allowing for a higher storage capacity in a smaller space. However, MLC technology is known to be less durable than Single-Level Cell (SLC) technology, which uses only two levels of charge. To mitigate this, the 698297-B21 HPE G8 G9 480-GB 2.5 SATA 3G MLC SSD uses advanced error-correction algorithms and wear-leveling techniques to ensure a high level of reliability and endurance.
Endurance and Reliability
The 698297-B21 HPE G8 G9 480-GB 2.5 SATA 3G MLC SSD is designed to provide a high level of endurance and reliability, making it suitable for use in mission-critical applications. It has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 2 million hours, which means that it is expected to operate reliably for a long period of time. It also uses advanced algorithms to optimize performance and minimize wear, ensuring consistent and reliable performance over the life of the drive.

The SATA 3Gbps is a sample of the second revision of SATA technology and can also be referred to as SATA II. The SATA II has data transfer rates of 3Gbs per second and can reach a capacity of 300MB/s for HDDs and up to 550 MB/s for SSDs.
It took a lot of effort to improve the performance and speeds of solid-state drives (SSD). The upgrade to the SATA-3Gbps SSD can help users get a tune-up and extract greater performance out of their workstations, PCs, and servers. Without a doubt, the SATA-3Gbps SSDs will easily exceed the interface's throughput ceiling compared to the mechanical hard drives of a similar interface. Another major advantage of SSDs is the innate ability to handle random I/O requests. If you've not used a SATA II SSD, you are losing increased performance and have not experienced responsiveness: apps start faster, faster system boots, and faster file transfers.
SATA 3Gbps has quite some impressive speeds and will reduce boot times and application load times thereby increasing productivity. The SSDs can eliminate hard drive failures and hard drive crashes making them ideal for system builders and enterprise environments. The SSD differs in that it has no moving components making use of microchips but will have the standard SATA interface. SSDs are built for reliability and durability as well as performance gains.
Browse through the products under this category for all your SATA 3gbps SSD needs. We have a variety of storage capacity options that include 400GB, 480GB, 600GB, 800GB, 960GB SSDs to meet your storage needs. Some of the notable features of the SATA 3Gbps and the SSDs products listed above are:
- Data throughput of up to 3.0 Gb/s
- Multi-level cell NAND flash technology for better storage speeds.
- Read speed of up to 230 MB/s and write speeds of up to 180 MB/s. The fast read/write speeds improve data transfer and increase overall system responsiveness.
- Support for native command queuing (NCQ) to increase efficiency in the execution order of reading and writing commands.
- Available in the 2.5-inch form factor for deployment in space-constrained environments in light and thin form factor devices and system configurations.
- Backward and forward compatibility with devices that support the SATA standard. The SATA 3Gbps SSDs are compatible with the different revisions of SATA – backward compatible with SATA 1.5 Gb/s and forward compatible with SATA-III/SATA 6Gbps.
- Non-volatile flash memory to allow outstanding data retention.
- Advanced garbage collection algorithms serve to maintain the high performance of the SSD even after long durations in operation.
- Error correction code functionality for reliable data transfer.
- Wear leveling support and shock resistance.
- Low power consumption which is particularly helpful in preserving battery runtime in PCs and increases efficiency in notebooks users.
- Support for hardware purge for faster deleting of data at the push of a button and write-protect functionality to prevent data modification.
The SATA 3Gbps SSD offers cool and silent operation mainly due to the lack of moving parts which also means lower power use. Lower energy consumption arises from the fact that the SSD will use lesser power and that its cooling needs are much lower.
All the SATA II SSDs have built-in reliability that includes the power shield to prevent damage caused by power failure. For a longer lifespan, the SMART command aids in the detection of possible drive failure before it even occurs. We have solid warranties – up to 3 years – on all our drives so that you can peace of mind that you are covered and using tested components including SATA cables.
