Overview
831737-B21 Overview

HPE 831737-B21, 3.2 TB, Half-Height/Half-Length (HH/HL), 2500 MB/s

831737-B21 is a HPE 3.2TB PCIe x4 Lanes Read Intensive HHHL 3yr Warranty Card Supports Gen8 Servers and Beyond. HPE PCIe Workload Accelerators for HPE ProLiant ML/DL/SL Server series are PCIe card-based direct-attach solid state storage technology solutions for application performance improvement. They offer excellent latency and enterprise reliability for improving an individual server's throughput, and allow you to implement up to ten times the number of virtual machines compared to typical virtualization environments.

With significant energy savings and a reduced footprint, your total cost of ownership will be lower. Performance constrained applications such as on-line transaction processing (OLTP), virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), or Big Data will greatly benefit by adding a PCIe Workload Accelerator to their server.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the HPE 831737-B21 compatible with my existing Gen9 or Gen10 server infrastructure? +
Yes, this drive is engineered for versatility across HPE server generations. Specifically designed to support Gen8 servers and beyond, it utilizes a PCIe x4 interface to provide high-performance storage connectivity, making it a reliable choice for modernizing or expanding the storage capacity of your legacy and current-gen enterprise hardware.
What primary workload profiles are ideal for this 3.2TB Read Intensive PCIe drive? +
This drive is optimized for Read Intensive workloads where data is accessed frequently but modified less often. It excels in environments such as content delivery networks, data warehousing, and web servers. By utilizing the PCIe bus directly, it minimizes latency and maximizes throughput for high-demand, read-heavy enterprise applications compared to standard SAS or SATA drives.
How does the HHHL form factor affect the physical installation of the 831737-B21? +
The Half-Height, Half-Length (HHHL) form factor is designed to fit into standard PCIe expansion slots, ensuring compatibility with a wide array of rack-mount and tower server chassis. This compact design allows for efficient airflow within the server, ensuring that high-performance storage remains cool even in densely packed rack environments while occupying minimal internal space.
Does the PCIe x4 interface significantly improve performance over traditional drive architectures? +
Absolutely. By leveraging four lanes of PCIe bandwidth, this drive bypasses the overhead associated with traditional SAS/SATA storage controllers. This architecture significantly reduces input/output bottlenecks, allowing the server to achieve higher IOPS and lower latency for data-heavy tasks, which is critical for maintaining performance parity in high-speed enterprise compute clusters.
What is the total storage capacity offered by the 831737-B21 model? +
The 831737-B21 provides a robust 3.2TB of storage capacity. This density is ideal for organizations requiring high-speed access to large datasets without the need for complex, multi-drive arrays. Its capacity-to-performance ratio makes it an excellent candidate for primary storage pools that require both large volume and rapid data retrieval.
How do I ensure this specific PCIe drive is effectively managed within my HPE server environment? +
Management is handled through standard HPE server interface tools that recognize PCIe-based storage. Since this drive operates directly on the PCIe bus, it integrates seamlessly with your existing management software, allowing for health monitoring, firmware updates, and performance logging consistent with your current server administrative workflows and diagnostic procedures.
What does the 'Read Intensive' designation mean for the long-term reliability of this drive? +
The Read Intensive designation signifies that the flash storage architecture is tuned to provide consistent performance for workloads with a high read-to-write ratio. By prioritizing endurance for read operations, the drive delivers reliable, high-speed performance for applications like streaming or archival data retrieval, ensuring your hardware remains stable under the specific pressures of your unique server environment.
Can this drive be used in a mixed-drive configuration alongside existing SAS SSDs? +
Yes, this PCIe drive can coexist with SAS or SATA drives within the same server, provided the system has available PCIe slots and sufficient power capacity. Because the 831737-B21 uses the PCIe interface for high-speed data transfer, it effectively acts as a tiered storage solution, offloading the most latency-sensitive data while other drives handle traditional storage duties.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for the 831737-B21 for my enterprise infrastructure project? +
