HPE 240GB 2.5 SATA 6G RI SSD

The HPE 869376-B21 is a 240GB solid state drive that slips into the 2.5-inch bay of your ProLiant Gen8, Gen9, or Gen10 server and delivers brisk, dependable read performance right away. It arrives pre-mounted in an HPE SmartDrive carrier, so installation is as simple as sliding it into an open slot and letting your server recognize it—no extra cabling or configuration required.

With a 6 Gb/s SATA interface, the drive keeps data moving smoothly while remaining cost-effective for applications that read far more than they write. It can reach up to 55,000 random read IOPS and maintains an average latency of about 145 microseconds, helping operating systems, web services, or analytics dashboards load quickly and stay responsive even under steady demand.

The drive carries genuine HPE firmware and hardware validation, which means it is fully compatible with ProLiant tooling. You can monitor health, temperature, and remaining life through iLO or Smart Storage Administrator, and hot-plug replacement is straightforward if your workload ever outgrows the capacity.

Because it is optimized for read-intensive tasks, this SSD fits well as a boot volume, a web server repository, or a storage tier for virtual machines that see frequent reads and light writes. Small businesses, branch offices, and data centers that want consistent performance without the higher cost of write-heavy SSDs will find it a practical choice.
