SSD disk HPE 3,2 TB 2,5 inch SAS P49749-001

The HPE P49749-001 is a 3.2 TB internal solid state drive in a 2.5-inch form factor designed for server environments. Using a SAS interface, this SSD is built to deliver higher performance, lower latency and greater durability than traditional spinning drives. The drive suits enterprise workloads that require sustained throughput and reliable data access while fitting standard 2.5-inch drive bays.

Advantages

This HPE SSD provides a large 3.2 TB capacity in a compact 2.5-inch package while leveraging SAS connectivity for consistent high-speed data transfer. It improves system responsiveness and reduces I/O bottlenecks for multi-user and database applications. The solid state construction increases tolerance to vibration and mechanical wear compared with conventional hard disk drives, supporting long-term operation in rack-mounted servers.

Suitable for

• Database servers and transactional workloads
• Virtualization hosts and hyper-converged infrastructures
• High-performance file servers and application servers
• Read- and write-intensive enterprise applications

Key specifications

• Capacity: 3200 GB (3.2 TB)
• Form factor: 2.5 inch
• Interface type: SAS (Serial Attached SCSI)

How to use

Install the drive into a compatible 2.5-inch server drive bay connected to a SAS controller that supports enterprise SSDs. Follow your server manufacturer's guidelines for hot-swap insertion or secure mounting, and ensure the system firmware and RAID controller firmware are up to date for optimal compatibility. Initialize, partition and format the drive according to the operating system or storage management software in use, and integrate it into existing RAID sets or storage pools as required by your deployment.

Recommendations

Monitor drive health and firmware status through server management tools and SMART-like diagnostics provided by the platform. For mission-critical deployments, use RAID or replication strategies and maintain regular backups. Ensure adequate cooling and airflow in the server chassis to preserve performance and longevity.
