Frequently Asked Questions

What does digitally signed" mean for HPE SSDs?

HPE ProLiant Gen10 and later servers require digitally signed drive firmware — unsigned or non-HPE firmware triggers a security alert. HPE OEM drives include pre-signed firmware ensuring seamless ProLiant integration.

Is the P07442-001 compatible with Gen10 Plus servers?

The P07442-001 is validated for ProLiant G8 G9 and G10. Verify Gen10 Plus compatibility with HPE's QuickSpecs or SPOCK tool before ordering.

What is Mixed Use endurance?

Mixed Use SSDs are rated for balanced read/write workloads (typically 3-12 DWPD) — between Read Intensive (lower write endurance) and Write Intensive (higher write endurance) SSD categories.
