How to Install HPE 1.60 TB Solid State Drive

  • Power down the system and unplug it from any power source. Safety first to protect both you and the equipment.
  • Open or remove the server chassis or storage enclosure access panel to reach the drive bays or backplane slots compatible with U.3 drives.
  • Identify an available 2.5" drive bay and ensure the backplane or controller supports U.3 PCIe NVMe interfaces.
  • Carefully insert the HPE 1.60 TB NVMe SSD into the drive slot or backplane as directed by your hardware vendor’s service manual. Align connectors and seats securely to prevent disconnections.
  • Secure the drive with screws or retention mechanisms provided by the chassis or backplane. Ensure the drive is firmly seated and properly aligned with the backplane connectors.
  • Reconnect power and data cables, power on the system, and enter the BIOS/UEFI if required. Confirm that the drive is recognized by the system’s storage controller.
  • In the operating system, initialize and format the new SSD as appropriate for your workload. Create partitions, assign mount points, and configure any required storage pools or RAID/erasure coding schemes if used in your environment.
  • Update firmware if prompted and verify full performance with a storage benchmark or workload test to validate that the drive operates as expected within your deployment.
