Why Choose This Product?

• 6.4TB local flash capacity gives infrastructure teams substantial high-speed storage capacity in a single PCIe accelerator.
• Read-intensive optimization makes it a more targeted choice for read-heavy workloads than a generic mixed-use accelerator.
• PCIe 2.0 x8 connectivity provides the correct eight-lane interface specified by HPE for this model.
• High random-read capability of up to 245,000 IOPS addresses applications with frequent small-block data access. 
• 2.1 GiB/s sequential reads support data-intensive workloads that benefit from sustained large-block read throughput. 
• FH/HL form factor provides a clearly defined physical configuration for compatible server planning.
• HPE-specific workload accelerator simplifies product selection by providing a manufacturer-defined capacity, workload class, interface and form factor.
• Better workload-to-cost alignment allows buyers to select a read-intensive accelerator rather than automatically specifying a more write-oriented storage product when the workload does not require it.
