Description
Product Overview of the HPE 762261-B21
The 762261-B21 is a solid-state drive (SSD) designed and manufactured by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) for use in Proliant Gen8 servers. It is a high-performance, high-capacity storage device that utilizes Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) technology, capable of operating at speeds of up to 12Gbps. The 800GB capacity of this SSD makes it an ideal choice for storing large amounts of data, such as databases, virtual machines, and other applications that require high-speed storage.
SAS Technology
SAS is a type of storage interface that is commonly used in server and storage systems. It is a serial communication protocol that allows data to be transmitted over a single cable at high speeds. SAS drives are typically used in enterprise environments, where high-performance, high-reliability storage is required.
One of the key advantages of SAS technology is its ability to support multiple devices on a single bus. This allows multiple SAS drives to be connected to a single SAS controller, which can improve system performance and reduce the number of cables required.
SAS technology also supports hot-swapping, which means that drives can be replaced or added without having to power down the system. This makes it possible to perform maintenance or upgrades without interrupting system operations, which is important in mission-critical environments.
800GB Capacity
The 800GB capacity of the 762261-B21 SSD is a significant amount of storage, especially when compared to traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). HDDs are typically larger in physical size and have lower capacities than SSDs. This makes them less suitable for use in servers, where high-speed, high-capacity storage is required.
The 800GB capacity of the 762261-B21 SSD makes it an ideal choice for storing large amounts of data, such as databases, virtual machines, and other applications that require high-speed storage. It also allows for greater flexibility in server configurations, as it reduces the number of drives required to meet capacity requirements.
2.5-inch SFF Form Factor
The 762261-B21 SSD is designed to fit into the 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF) drive bays that are commonly found in Proliant Gen8 servers. The SFF form factor is smaller than the traditional 3.5-inch form factor, which allows for greater storage density in server environments.
The smaller form factor also allows for more drives to be installed in a single server, which can improve system performance and reduce the physical footprint of the server. This is important in environments where space is limited, such as data centers.
Smart Carrier Hot Swap
The 762261-B21 SSD is designed with a Smart Carrier Hot Swap feature, which allows for easy installation and removal of the drive without the need for tools. The Smart Carrier is a plastic tray that holds the drive securely in place, and it can be easily inserted or removed from the server.
The hot-swapping feature allows for maintenance or upgrades to be performed without interrupting system operations. This is important in mission-critical environments, where system downtime can have a significant impact on business operations.
Proliant Gen8 Server Compatibility
The 762261-B21 SSD is specifically designed for use in Proliant Gen8 servers. Proliant Gen8 servers are designed for high-performance, high-availability applications, and the 762261-B21 SSD is a perfect fit for these environments.
The compatibility of the 762261-B21 SSD with Proliant Gen8 servers ensures that the drive will work seamlessly with these servers, providing the high-performance, high-capacity storage required for mission-critical applications.
