Product overview
HP lists 740132-B21 as a 480GB 2.5 inch MLC 6Gb/s SATA Solid State Drive. Enterprise SSDs are specified by endurance as much as capacity, and a read-intensive drive put under a write-heavy workload wears out early. This one is 480GB. Tell us the workload and we will confirm the endurance class is right before you order.
Send the quantity you need and we will come back within 48 business hours with availability confirmed, not estimated.

Questions buyers ask about this part

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Training throughput is limited by how fast data reaches the accelerators, which is why AI nodes are specified with NVMe in front of the GPUs.
