FAQs

Q: What servers is the HPE PM7 1.6TB SAS SSD compatible with?
A: This SSD is compatible with HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus, Gen11, and Gen12 server platforms. Always verify compatibility with HPE's online configurator or contact IP Trading for guidance specific to your server model.

Q: What does FIPS 140-2 self-encryption mean for data security?
A: FIPS 140-2 self-encryption means the drive performs AES encryption in hardware, with the encryption engine validated to the US government FIPS 140-2 standard. Data at rest is protected without any software overhead, and the drive supports Instant Secure Erase for secure decommissioning or redeployment.

Q: Is this drive suitable for virtualisation and database workloads?
A: Yes. The Mixed Use (3 DWPD) rating and high random IOPS — up to 325,959 write IOPS and 308,406 read IOPS — make this SSD well-suited for virtualisation, database, big data analytics, cloud computing, and HPC workloads that require sustained read/write performance.

Q: Can I replace this drive without powering down the server?
A: Yes. The HPE PM7 SSD is hot-plug capable, allowing non-disruptive drive replacement in supported HPE ProLiant servers without taking the system offline.

Q: What is the difference between Basic Carrier (BC) and SmartCarrier variants?
A: Basic Carrier (BC) drives use a standard SFF drive carrier without the LED activity and fault indicators found on SmartCarrier versions. BC drives are the cost-effective choice when carrier-level diagnostics are not required by your deployment.

Q: Can I purchase this HPE SSD in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller supplying HPE server storage including the PM7 SSD range. Order online or contact our team for volume pricing, lead times, and compatibility advice with fast shipping across Australia.
