Unidad SSD HPE 800 GB 2,5 inch SAS 787337-001

The HPE 800 GB 2.5 inch SAS 787337-001 is an internal solid state drive designed for server and workstation environments. It provides 800 GB of usable flash capacity in a 2.5-inch form factor and supports a 12 Gbit/s SAS interface for high-throughput data transfers. The drive is intended to deliver consistent access times and improved I/O performance to support database workloads, virtualization and other storage-intensive applications.

Advantages

This HPE SSD combines a compact 2.5-inch form factor with enterprise-class SAS connectivity at 12 Gbit/s, offering a balance of capacity and sustained throughput. With 800 GB of flash storage, it reduces latency compared with mechanical drives and helps accelerate read and write operations. The drive is built to integrate with server and storage arrays that support SAS, providing predictable performance and simplified deployment in rack-mounted systems.

Suitable for

• Enterprise servers running databases and transactional applications
• Virtualization hosts where multiple VMs require low-latency storage
• Storage enclosures and arrays that accept 2.5-inch SAS drives
• Workstations used for data analysis or content creation with heavy I/O

When it may not be suitable

This SSD may not be suitable for consumer desktop systems that lack SAS controllers or connectors, since it requires a compatible SAS host interface. It is also not intended as a direct replacement for NVMe drives; systems expecting NVMe protocol will not recognize SAS devices. For use cases that demand very high capacities in a single drive, larger-capacity models or additional drives may be required.

Key specifications

• Storage capacity: 800 GB
• Form factor: 2.5-inch
• Interface: 12 Gbit/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)
• Intended use: internal server and workstation storage

How to use

Install the SSD into a compatible 2.5-inch bay or SAS drive tray in a server or workstation that supports 12 Gbit/s SAS. Ensure the system firmware and RAID controllers recognize SAS drives and update controller drivers or firmware if necessary. Configure the drive within the host operating system or RAID management utility: initialize, partition and format according to the intended workload. Monitor drive health through system management tools and follow recommended maintenance and backup procedures.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your server, storage array or workstation supports 2.5-inch SAS drives and a 12 Gbit/s SAS interface.
• Confirm compatibility with existing RAID controllers, backplanes and drive carriers.
• Ensure your intended operating system and management tools support SAS drives and can monitor SSD health.
• Plan capacity and redundancy according to performance and data protection requirements.

Recommendations

Use the HPE 800 GB 2.5 inch SAS SSD in systems with SAS-capable controllers and up-to-date firmware. For best performance, employ appropriate RAID levels or storage tiering according to workload patterns, and maintain regular backups. Monitor SMART and vendor-provided diagnostics to schedule replacements before end-of-life to avoid unexpected downtime.
