HP 673644-B21

The HPE 673644-B21 (ioDrive2 785GB PCIe flash accelerator) is an enterprise-grade PCIe solid-state storage device designed to deliver extremely high performance for server workloads. It integrates 785GB of NAND flash memory directly on a PCIe card, allowing it to bypass traditional storage interfaces like SAS or SATA and connect directly to the system bus via PCI Express 2.0 x4. This architecture significantly reduces latency and increases throughput compared to conventional SSDs. It is primarily used in HPE ProLiant servers and other enterprise data center systems to accelerate demanding applications such as databases, virtualization platforms, analytics, and high-transaction workloads. The device is designed for continuous 24/7 operation, offering strong endurance, consistent performance under heavy load, and reliability features suitable for mission-critical environments. In summary, it is a high-performance internal PCIe flash accelerator built for enterprise server optimization, not a standard storage drive.

Features:

• 785GB onboard enterprise MLC flash memory PCIe 2.0 x4 interface for direct server connection Ultra-low latency architecture for fast data access
• Very high IOPS performance for read/write-intensive workloads Consistent throughput under sustained heavy load
• Designed for enterprise 24/7 operation Power-loss protection to help prevent data corruption High endurance NAND flash optimized for repeated write cycles
• Internal PCIe form factor (no cables or external ports) Optimized for virtualization, databases, and analytics workloads Works in supported HPE ProLiant server PCIe slots
