## Long description

The HPE P18428-H21 is a 3.84 TB internal SSD in a 2.5" form factor designed for use in servers and workstations. It uses the SATA III interface with transfer rates up to 6 Gbit/s and delivers sequential read speeds up to 520 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 480 MB/s. The drive is part of HPE's family of solid state drives, Add-In-Cards, M.2 modules and enablement kits that use NAND Flash technology to provide improved I/O latency and power efficiency compared with rotating disk media.
Advantages
This 2.5" SATA III SSD provides high-capacity solid state storage with predictable sequential performance for read- and write-intensive workloads. Its NAND Flash design reduces I/O latency and power consumption relative to traditional HDDs and integrates into existing HPE server and storage infrastructures in a standard 2.5" form factor.
Suitable for
Enterprise servers requiring high-capacity internal storage
Workstations handling large datasets or content creation
Read- and write-intensive applications with sequential I/O patterns
Systems where lower latency and improved power efficiency are needed
Key specifications
Capacity: 3.84 TB (3840 GB)
Form factor: 2.5 inch
Interface: SATA III (up to 6 Gbit/s)
Sequential read speed: up to 520 MB/s
Sequential write speed: up to 480 MB/s
How to use
Install the SSD into a compatible 2.5" drive bay on a server or workstation that supports SATA III connections. Connect the drive to the system's SATA controller using the appropriate power and data cables, then initialize, partition and format the drive within the operating system or storage controller before use. Follow your server vendor's guidelines for drive insertion and hot-swap procedures if applicable.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use this SSD in systems with SATA III support and ensure firmware and storage drivers are up to date. Consider RAID configurations or hardware controllers for redundancy and throughput scaling in multi-drive deployments.
