HPE 726536-B21, DVD Writer, Internal, SATA, Black

The HPE 9.5mm SATA DVD-ROM is an internal optical drive specifically designed for selected HPE ProLiant Gen9 server systems. It utilizes a standard 9.5 mm form factor and connects via a SATA interface to fit within a server optical bay. This drive provides administrators with the ability to read installation media, perform software updates, and boot operating systems directly from physical discs. The unit is built for steady access in enterprise hardware environments rather than standalone consumer use.

This optical station supports a variety of media formats, including DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, and multiple recordable CD and DVD variants. It features an 8x write speed for recordable DVDs and a 24x write speed for standard CDs. The drive uses a tray-loading mechanism and can be mounted in either a vertical or horizontal orientation depending on the server chassis configuration. With a weight of 660 grams and a depth of 129.5 mm, it is intended as a direct replacement or upgrade for maintaining local data access in a data center setting.
