HPE 480GB SATA 6G MU 2.5" SSD SK Hynix SE5031 Series for ProLiant Server G8 G9 G10 (HPE LFF SCC Tray Included)

The HPE 480GB SATA 6Gb/s Mixed Use (MU) Enterprise Solid State Drive is designed for HPE ProLiant Gen8, Gen9, and Gen10 servers, delivering reliable enterprise storage performance for virtualization, databases, cloud infrastructure, RAID arrays, and other business-critical applications. Built on the proven SK Hynix SE5031 enterprise SSD platform, this drive combines enterprise-grade endurance, low latency, and consistent performance for demanding data center environments.

Featuring HPE Digitally Signed Firmware (DS), the SSD provides secure firmware validation, seamless integration with HPE systems, and compatibility with HPE storage monitoring tools. Utilizing 3D TLC NAND flash memory, the drive is optimized for mixed-use workloads that require a balanced combination of read and write performance.

This configuration is installed in an HPE Large Form Factor (LFF) Smart Carrier Converter (SCC) Tray, allowing the 2.5-inch SSD to be deployed in compatible 3.5-inch LFF drive bays commonly found in HPE ProLiant Gen8, Gen9, and Gen10 servers. The SCC carrier supports hot-plug functionality and enables enterprise SSD performance in systems configured for LFF storage.

The underlying SK Hynix SE5031 SSD remains electrically compatible with newer server generations. However, Gen10 Plus, Gen11, and Gen12 platforms typically utilize the Basic Carrier (BC) architecture rather than the legacy Smart Carrier Converter (SCC) configuration. For deployment in newer systems, the SSD may need to be transferred to the appropriate HPE Basic Carrier compatible with the target server.

When removed from the included HPE LFF Smart Carrier Converter (SCC) Tray, the drive functions as a standard 2.5-inch 7mm SATA enterprise SSD and can be used in supported:

• Dell PowerEdge Servers
• Lenovo ThinkSystem Servers
• Supermicro Servers
• Enterprise Storage Arrays
• Custom SATA-Based Systems

Some third-party systems may identify the drive as an HPE-branded SSD due to the digitally signed firmware, but normal storage functionality remains unaffected.
