HPE SSD 1.92TB RI SAS 24Gb/s 2.5 BC

Data centers running HPE ProLiant or Synergy servers often need to expand storage without sacrificing performance or reliability. The HPE P49735-001 1.92TB SAS 24Gb/s Read Intensive SSD slots directly into a 2.5-inch Small Form Factor bay with the HPE Smart Carrier, delivering fast, consistent access to frequently read data. It is built for workloads where reads dominate—web serving, media streaming, virtual desktop infrastructure, and database indexing.

Key specifications

• 1.92 TB raw capacity, 2.5-inch SFF form factor
• SAS 24Gb/s interface, backward compatible with 12Gb/s
• Read Intensive endurance: 1 DWPD for 5 years
• Sequential read up to 2200 MB/s, write up to 1800 MB/s
• Random read up to 300,000 IOPS, write up to 100,000 IOPS
• 3D TLC NAND, standard (non-SED) encryption
• Hot-swap support, MTBF 2,000,000 hours
• Typical power consumption 8–10 W

Why choose it

This drive is optimized for read-heavy enterprise applications, offering high throughput and low latency while keeping power and cooling costs in check. The HPE Smart Carrier ensures simple, tool-less installation and clear status indication. With a 1 DWPD endurance rating, it handles constant read operations and moderate writes without compromising long-term reliability.

Ideal use cases

• Boot and application drives in virtualized server environments
• Content delivery networks and streaming media servers
• Database servers with read-intensive workloads
• High-performance computing clusters requiring fast data access

Good to know

The drive is fully compatible with HPE ProLiant Gen10/Gen11 servers and HPE Synergy compute modules. It supports hot-swap replacement, so you can upgrade or service storage without shutting down the server. The SAS 24Gb/s interface doubles the bandwidth of previous-generation 12Gb/s SAS, reducing bottlenecks in dense storage configurations.
