Description

The HPE 12.8TB NVMe PCIe Gen 5 E3.S Mixed Use SSD delivers exceptional I/O performance for demanding server workloads including big data analytics, HPC, virtualisation, and database applications. Using the EDSFF E3.S form factor with a PCIe Gen 5 interface, it achieves up to 1.2M random read IOPS and 894K random write IOPS while enabling greater NVMe drive density than traditional 2.5-inch SSDs. Powered by the SKHynix PS1030 controller and rated at 3.49 DWPD endurance, it is purpose-built for mixed read/write environments requiring sustained throughput and data integrity.

Compatible with HPE Compute Mainstream Platforms, this hot-pluggable drive features full data-path error detection, HPE Digitally Signed Firmware, and SPDM support for enterprise-grade security. It integrates seamlessly into HPE server ecosystems and is available in 3.2 TB, 6.4 TB, and 12.8 TB variants within the same family. In stock and ready to ship from iptrading.com.au — order now for fast dispatch.
