Hewlett Packard Enterprise P40498-B21 internal solid state drive

Specifies the type of device or system that the product is intended to be used with, such as a PC, server, notebook, surveillance system, or other electronic equipment. The value represents a single category and can be used to filter or group products by their target platform.

The Harmonized System (HS) code is a standardized numerical identifier used internationally to classify traded goods. It consists of up to six digits, where each pair of digits represents progressively more specific product categories. The HS code facilitates customs duties, trade statistics, and regulatory compliance by providing a common language for describing products across borders.

Indicates whether the product can be connected or removed while it is powered on without requiring a shutdown or reboot. A value of "Yes" means the device supports hot‑plugging, allowing components such as drives, peripherals or expansion cards to be added or removed safely during operation; "No" indicates that the device must be powered down before any hardware changes.

The physical or logical interface used by a device to connect with other components, such as USB, PCI Express, SATA, Ethernet, Thunderbolt, DisplayPort, or similar standards. It indicates the technology that enables data transfer and power delivery between the product and its peripherals.

The classification of the memory technology used in a device, such as DDR4 SDRAM, LPDDR3, GDDR6, or other variants. It indicates the architecture and generation of the RAM modules installed or supported by the product.

The maximum number of input/output operations per second that a storage device can perform when reading data randomly. This metric indicates how quickly the device can retrieve small, non‑sequential pieces of information and is useful for evaluating performance in database or high‑transaction workloads.

The maximum number of input/output operations per second that a storage device can perform when writing data randomly with 4‑KB blocks. This metric indicates how quickly the device can handle small, non‑sequential write requests and is useful for evaluating performance in database or high‑transaction workloads.

The time delay between a read request and the delivery of data from a storage device or memory component, expressed as a duration in milliseconds (ms), microseconds (µs) or seconds (s). It indicates how quickly the device can retrieve information for processing or transfer.

The physical form factor indicates the standard size and shape of an SSD, such as M.2, 2.5‑inch, U.2 or mSATA. It helps determine compatibility with motherboards, enclosures and other hardware components.

The time required for a storage device to complete a write operation, expressed as a duration (e.g., microseconds or milliseconds). It indicates how quickly data can be written to the medium and is useful for comparing performance across similar products.
