Product overview
This is the HPE 960GB SATA SFF 2.5" Solid State Drive, order code P18434-B21. Mixing drive models inside one array leaves the group running at the slowest member's latency, and this is a SATA device. Tell us what is already in the shelf and we will match it rather than merely fit it.
Quotes are itemised down to the accessories, so nothing that is needed to make the part work is left off and discovered later.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
P18434-B21 is what is quoted and P18434-B21 is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
Endurance matched to the workload
We ask what the drive is being written to before quoting, because a read-intensive part on a write-heavy volume is a warranty claim waiting to happen.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is P18434-B21 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. Supplied new and unopened, so the manufacturer warranty and firmware update path stay supported. No grey-market stock and no refurbished units sold as new.
Will P18434-B21 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, since mechanical fit is the easy part.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.
