HPE G8-G10 960GB 2.5" SATA 6G Mixed Use DS SSD

The HPE P05980-B21 is a 960GB solid state drive that brings balanced read and write performance to ProLiant Gen8, Gen9, and Gen10 servers. Built for mixed-use workloads, it connects over a 6 Gb/s SATA interface and slides into any standard 2.5-inch bay, so you can boost capacity and speed without changing your existing infrastructure.

Because it ships in an HPE Smart Carrier, the drive can be hot-swapped while the server stays online. Data center staff gain shorter maintenance windows and avoid costly downtime. The digitally signed firmware is certified by HPE, which helps block unauthorized code and keeps compliance officers satisfied.

For administrators who like to stay ahead of issues, the integrated SmartSSD Wear Gauge exposes real-time health metrics through HPE management tools. You can schedule replacements before performance drops instead of reacting to unexpected failures.

This drive is a practical upgrade for branch offices that need a dependable database tier, virtualization hosts that juggle many small virtual machines, or file servers that serve a steady mix of reads and writes throughout the workday.

• 960GB capacity for applications, databases, and file storage
