Cisco HX-B-NVME2H-I1000= 1,000 GB U.2 NVMe SSD

Sustain demanding virtualized and database workloads with a Cisco-qualified 2.5-inch U.2 NVMe drive built for enterprise storage tiers. This 1,000 GB model pairs the NVMe interface with a compact 2.5-inch form factor, giving infrastructure teams a fast, space-efficient option for hosts that need lower latency than SATA can deliver. The Intel P4510 platform is designed for environments where storage performance must stay consistent under mixed read and write pressure. That makes this drive a strong fit for boot volumes, hypervisor datastores, and application tiers that benefit from flash acceleration without moving to oversized capacity points. In Cisco systems, the value is not just raw speed — it is compatibility, predictable deployment, and a drive profile aligned to enterprise server requirements. Choose this model when you need a storage component that supports dense rack designs and keeps critical services responsive. It is a practical upgrade path for teams standardizing on NVMe while preserving the procurement discipline expected in production infrastructure.
