Description
Product overview of the HPE 3.2TB SSD
The HPE P20795-001 is a Solid State Drive (SSD) that is designed to offer high performance for mixed-use applications. It is a Small Form Factor (SFF) NVMe x4 drive that has a capacity of 3.2TB, making it ideal for high-density data storage. The drive features digitally signed firmware, which ensures that the firmware has not been altered or tampered with in any way. In this article, we will explore the features of the HPE P20795-001 SSD in detail.
What is a Solid State Drive (SSD)?
A Solid State Drive (SSD) is a type of storage device that uses flash memory to store data. Unlike traditional Hard Disk Drives (HDDs), SSDs have no moving parts, which means they are more reliable and faster than HDDs. SSDs are commonly used in laptops, desktops, and servers.
What is NVMe?
NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) is a protocol that allows SSDs to communicate with the system’s processor more efficiently. It is designed to take advantage of the high-speed, low-latency characteristics of flash memory. NVMe is commonly used in high-performance storage applications, such as servers.
What is SFF?
SFF stands for Small Form Factor. In the context of SSDs, SFF refers to the physical size of the drive. SFF drives are smaller than traditional 3.5-inch drives, making them ideal for use in compact systems.
What is Mixed-Use?
Mixed-Use refers to the type of workload that the SSD is designed to handle. Mixed-Use SSDs are optimized for workloads that require a mix of read and write operations, such as virtualized environments, databases, and email servers. Mixed-Use SSDs typically offer a balance between performance and endurance.
What is Digitally Signed Firmware?
Firmware is the software that controls the operation of an SSD. Digitally signed firmware is firmware that has been digitally signed by the manufacturer. This ensures that the firmware has not been altered or tampered with in any way. Digitally signed firmware is an important security feature, as it helps to prevent unauthorized access to the SSD.
HPE P20795-001 Features
The HPE P20795-001 SSD is designed for high-performance mixed-use applications. It features a capacity of 3.2TB, which makes it ideal for high-density data storage. The drive uses the NVMe protocol, which allows it to communicate with the system’s processor more efficiently. The drive is also SFF, which means it can be used in compact systems.
Performance
The HPE P20795-001 SSD is optimized for mixed-use workloads, which means it offers a balance between performance and endurance. The drive features read speeds of up to 3,200 MB/s and write speeds of up to 1,900 MB/s. These high speeds make the drive ideal for applications that require fast data access, such as virtualized environments, databases, and email servers.
Endurance
The HPE P20795-001 SSD is designed for mixed-use applications, which means it is optimized for workloads that require a mix of read and write operations. The drive features a Total Bytes Written (TBW) rating of 5,510, which means it can write up to 5,510 terabytes of data over its lifetime. This high TBW rating makes the drive ideal for applications that require high endurance, such as virtualized environments and databases.
Reliability
The HPE P20795-001 SSD features digitally signed firmware, which ensures that the firmware has not been altered or tampered with in any way. This is an important security feature, as it helps to prevent unauthorized access to the
