Product overview
The HP 256GB 2.5 inch MLC 6Gb/s SATA Solid State Drive is supplied under part number 745688-002. 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 256GB. Tell us the workload and we will confirm the endurance class is right before you order.
This part is quoted rather than listed, because the price moves with availability. Send the quantity and we will come back with a number we can stand behind.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against 745688-002, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
No substitutions without asking
If we cannot supply the exact code we tell you what we can supply and why, rather than shipping an equivalent and letting you find out.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.
Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is 745688-002 genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes. It ships new in HP packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
- Will 745688-002 work in my server?
- Send the server or array model and the controller behind it. We check the carrier, the firmware family and whether the drive is on the platform's supported list — mechanical fit is the easy part.
- Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
- Yes. We quote against a purchase order and hold the price for the quote period, with tiered rates at quantity. Net terms are available once the account is approved.
