Keep primary and secondary workloads available on a storage platform designed for both performance and efficiency. The HPE Nimble Storage HF40 combines 21 installed HDDs with 6 installed SSDs, giving IT teams a hybrid flash architecture that can serve mixed workloads while also supporting backup and disaster recovery use cases. This 4U rack-mount system is built for environments where storage density, network speed, and operational consistency matter. With 42 TB of installed HDD capacity and 2.88 TB of installed SSD capacity, it offers a practical balance of capacity and flash acceleration. The 10 Gigabit Ethernet interface supports fast connectivity for storage traffic, while the rack-mount form factor fits standard infrastructure deployments.

It is designed to help put backup data to work and to support both primary and secondary flash workloads in one system. That makes it a strong fit for teams that want to consolidate storage tiers without sacrificing the control and predictability expected in enterprise infrastructure.
