Spare Numbers and OS Requirements

HPE lists four spares for the K2P91A/K2P91B option. The spare you receive or install determines the minimum 3PAR OS level required:

• 810773-001: from 3.2.2-GA
• 834596-001: from 3.2.2 with P01
• 873101-001: 3.2.1 or 3.2.2 with specific patches
• 879391-001: 3.2.2 MU2 or later with specific patches

Check your array’s OS release with showversion -a before installing a drive.

Why 3.84TB SSDs in a 3PAR 8000?

Larger SSDs let you build an all-flash or flash-heavy array with fewer drive bays, leaving space for growth. Combined with 3PAR thin provisioning and deduplication on supported OS versions, 3.84TB drives can deliver substantial effective capacity per enclosure.

New HPE K2P91A

A New K2P91A suits organisations adding unused flash to a production array. Check the condition and stock shown on the product page before ordering.

Refurbished HPE K2P91A

A Refurbished K2P91A is a practical way to expand capacity or replace failed drives on arrays outside HPE support. Refurbished drives have been previously used and prepared for resale. Review the condition and warranty for the refurbished option.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between K2P91A and K2P91B?

Both are 3PAR 8000 3.84TB SFF SSD options. K2P91B is the version sold with All-inclusive Single-system Software licensing.

Which spare will I receive with a K2P91A?

It may carry any of the four HPE spare numbers. Check the drive label and make sure your 3PAR OS meets that spare’s minimum level.

Is the K2P91A FIPS encrypted?

No. It is a non-encrypted drive. Encrypted arrays need a FIPS encrypted 3.84TB option.

Can I use the K2P91A in a 3PAR 20000?

No. It is listed for the 3PAR 8000 series. The 3PAR 20000 uses its own options, such as K2R25A.
