Description

The HPE 6.4TB NVMe Gen5 High Performance Mixed Use E3.S SSD (PS1030) is an EDSFF E3.S EC1 form factor solid state drive engineered for demanding mixed-use workloads including Big Data analytics, HPC, cloud computing, database, and virtualisation. Communicating directly to applications over the PCIe Gen 5 bus, it delivers sequential I/O bandwidth and low latency far beyond what traditional 2.5-inch SAS or SATA SSDs can achieve — with up to 1.2M random read IOPS and 822K random write IOPS at queue depth 256. At 3.43 DWPD endurance and 40,062 TBW lifetime writes, it is built for sustained, high-intensity enterprise storage demands.

The E3.S form factor dramatically increases NVMe drive density within HPE Compute Mainstream Platforms, supporting up to 20 drives in a 1U server or 36 drives in a 2U server. Full data-path error detection, hot-plug capability, and improved power and thermal management make it an ideal foundation for scale-out storage infrastructure.

FAQs

Q: What workloads is the HPE 6.4TB NVMe Gen5 PS1030 SSD optimised for?
A: This drive is a mixed-use SSD with a 3.43 DWPD endurance rating, making it well suited for workloads that blend heavy reads and writes — including Big Data analytics, HPC, cloud computing, virtualisation, database applications, and business intelligence platforms.

Q: What servers is the P70401-B21 compatible with?
A: The P70401-B21 is compatible with HPE Compute Mainstream Platforms that support EDSFF E3.S EC1 drive bays. Refer to the HPE QuickSpecs document for a full list of supported server platforms before ordering.

Q: How does the EDSFF E3.S form factor differ from a standard 2.5-inch SSD?
A: The EDSFF E3.S form factor is purpose-built for NVMe, offering higher drive density, better airflow and thermal management, and a shorter PCB trace path to the CPU. A single 1U HPE server can accommodate up to 20 E3.S drives, versus far fewer traditional 2.5-inch bays.

Q: What are the peak IOPS figures for this SSD?
A: At queue depth 256 with 4KiB blocks, this drive delivers up to 1,215,819 random read IOPS and 822,954 random write IOPS — making it one of the highest-performing mixed-use NVMe SSDs in HPE's portfolio.

Q: Is the P70401-B21 hot-pluggable?
A: Yes. The drive supports hot-plug operation, allowing it to be inserted or removed from a compatible HPE server without powering down the system, which simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime.

Q: Can I purchase the HPE P70401-B21 in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller stocking HPE server storage options including this E3.S NVMe Gen5 SSD. We deliver nationwide — contact us or shop online for pricing and availability.
