The HPE PM1733 is engineered for enterprises that demand dependable, high-performance storage for read-heavy workloads. With a generous 7.68 TB capacity and a 2.5-inch U.3 form factor, this NVMe SSD is designed to deliver fast data access, lower latency, and steady throughput across demanding environments. The Read Intensive (RI) class targets workflows where reads dominate and response time matters, making it ideal for read caching, social media content delivery, bulk storage, email hosting, and boot/swap operations. Built on a PCIe Gen4 x4 interface, the PM1733 leverages the speed of NVMe to maximize IOPS, reduce queuing, and improve application and service responsiveness in data centers, cloud deployments, and edge environments. Whether you’re optimizing a server fleet for real-time analytics, virtualization, or high-traffic web workloads, this drive is poised to accelerate data access while maintaining reliability and efficiency that IT teams expect from HPE.

  • High-performance NVMe PCIe Gen4 x4 architecture: The PM1733 delivers the speed and responsiveness required for modern read-intensive workloads, offering high IOPS and low latency to accelerate data access across enterprise applications, virtualization hosts, and caching layers. Its PCIe Gen4 x4 interface provides a wide data channel for rapid transfers, enabling faster boot times, quicker application startups, and smoother streaming of read-heavy content.
  • Read-Intensive design for key workloads: Specifically optimized for read-dominant scenarios, this SSD is well-suited for read caching, content delivery, social media data access, bulk storage retrieval, and email services. By prioritizing read efficiency, it helps reduce bottlenecks in data paths and improves user-facing performance where reads are the main operation.
  • Massive capacity in a compact 2.5" U.3 form factor: The PM1733 packs 7.68 TB of solid-state storage into a standard 2.5-inch drive footprint with U.3 (SFF-8639) connectivity. This combination enables high-density expansion in traditional rack servers and modern data center backplanes, facilitating scalable storage pools without sacrificing space or cabling simplicity.
  • Enterprise reliability and efficiency: Built for continuous operation in data centers, the PM1733 combines dependable performance with efficiency that helps lower total cost of ownership. The drive is engineered to maintain steady throughput under demanding loads while managing power consumption, cooling, and thermal behavior to support long-term service levels and predictable performance.
  • Seamless integration with standard HPE and data-center environments: The PM1733 is designed to fit into existing enterprise servers and backplanes that support 2.5" U.3 NVMe drives. Its compatibility with PCIe Gen4 architectures makes it a natural fit for modern HPE and non-HPE servers that require a robust read-optimized NVMe SSD, enabling straightforward deployment for caching, storage expansion, or boot/end-user data paths.

how to install HPE PM1733

  • Prepare the server or storage chassis: power down completely, unplug power, and follow your data-center safety guidelines. Ensure the system supports 2.5" U.3 NVMe drives and has an available drive bay or hot-swap backplane slot compatible with PCIe NVMe devices.
  • Power down components and open the chassis to access the drive bays. Identify an available U.3 slot or drive bay configured for NVMe 2.5" devices and confirm backplane compatibility with PCIe Gen4 x4 signaling.
  • Insert the PM1733 into the appropriate drive tray or backplane, aligning connectors and seating the drive firmly. Secure the drive with screws or latching mechanisms as required by your chassis design.
  • Reconnect any backplane cables or hot-swap connectors. Close the chassis, reconnect power, and boot the server. Enter the system BIOS/UEFI or enterprise management console to verify the drive is detected and recognized as a 7.68 TB NVMe device.
  • In the operating system, initialize the new NVMe drive as needed (partition, format, and assign a mount point or install OS components if this drive will serve as a boot or cache tier). If using as a cache or tiered storage, configure the caching software or storage pool accordingly, following your OS and storage controller guidelines.
  • Update firmware if available and apply any vendor-recommended NVMe optimization settings. Run a quick health check and performance test to confirm the drive operates within expected parameters under your workload. Document the deployment for ongoing maintenance and monitoring.

The best for fetching enthusiasts
We have two lab mix dogs that love to play fetch but also have very strong jaws and sharp teeth. Tennis balls last about 10 seconds. I have used these for several years now and they are the best. They glow in the dark for night fetching, have two holes and are hollow so they whistle when you throw them. The dogs chew them like gum when not fetching and they hold up. They last about a year before starting to tear (this is with almost daily use). These balls are their favorites and get they upset if I use something else.

My dog's favorite
I have a 4 year old german shephard and this is her favorite ball. She often loses them and has to resort to a previous ball she used to play with, but when I line up several balls she chooses this one every time. When I tell her to search for her ball so we can go play she passes by all the other balls we have for her to look for this type. It has gotten so bad that I buy these in multiples because we play so much outside that she looses them and I almost have to order her to pick up an old ball when she can't find this one just so we can go outside. She loves to chew on this ball, I know that she could destroy it if she wanted to but she just likes to half bite on it. My dog loves this because the holes on each end make a whistle sound when you through it and she has become great at tracking it through the air via the whistle, I like it because it glows in the dark. So, in the early morning when she goes outside to the bathroom I charge the ball with a flashlight and I can watch her walk around the yard (we live out in the country and it is mostly dark all around us). Best ball for me and my dog.

Heavy chewer approved.
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My pomsky will destroy a toy in minutes. Ropes, and the "indestructible" nylon type stuffs are no match for my furry shark. This ball has stood up to him like David. He loves the crunch and it is so much more tolerable than a squeaker. These will be a staple in his toy box - Chuckit toys are really the most durable dog toys I have found in three years.
