Q8B82A Use Case
High-Throughput OLTP Database Acceleration with Q8B82A-HPE NS CS1000 R2 1.44TB Cache Bundle
A global financial services firm deploying Oracle 12c for high-frequency trading integrated the Q8B82A-HPE NS CS1000 R2 1.44TB Cache Bundle to drive hot blocks into ultra-low-latency flash. Result: 95th-percentile I/O latency dropped from 4 ms to sub-1 ms, transactional throughput rose by 35 %, SLA compliance increased, and server utilization improved by 20 %, enabling real-time trade settlement and lower TCO.
Massive-Scale VDI Performance Optimization in Healthcare
A 2,500-seat Citrix VDI deployment at a major hospital network implemented the Q8B82A-HPE NS CS1000 R2 1.44TB Cache Bundle to absorb login storms and boot-up peaks. The result: desktop launch times fell by 60 %, IOPS consistency was sustained under concurrent user loads, helpdesk tickets dropped by 45 %, and clinicians experienced seamless access to electronic health records.
Accelerated Hybrid-Cloud Backup & Rapid Recovery
An enterprise IT organization running cross-region DR and backup workflows added the Q8B82A-HPE NS CS1000 R2 1.44TB Cache Bundle to optimize dedupe and replication pipelines. Backup windows shrank from 12 hours to 4 hours, average restore times improved by 75 % (full restores in under 30 minutes), and RTO objectives were met for critical applications with minimal network impact.

Questions & Answers
What is the HPE NS CS1000 R2 1.44TB Cache Bundle (SKU: Q8B82A)?
The HPE NS CS1000 R2 1.44TB Cache Bundle (SKU: Q8B82A) is a pre-configured, enterprise-grade cache solution that accelerates storage performance by providing 1.44 TB of high-speed flash cache for HPE Storageworks systems.
What components are included in the Q8B82A cache bundle?
The bundle includes four 400 GB MLC flash modules, two 40 GB SLC write-log modules, required interposers, cables, and a pre-tested software license for seamless integration.
Which HPE storage systems support this cache bundle?
The cache bundle is fully compatible with HPE StorageWorks XP and XP2 series, including XP24000, XP20000, XP1024, and XP10000 arrays running FW version 3.8 or later.
How does the CS1000 R2 cache bundle improve storage performance?
By leveraging tiered caching and write-log acceleration, the bundle reduces I/O latency, increases read/write throughput, and delivers up to 5× faster application response times.
What are the system requirements for installation?
Requires HPE XP or XP2 array with available interposer slots, firmware version 3.8+, and HPE Command View management software version 9.2 or later.
How do I install the Q8B82A cache bundle?
Installation involves powering down the array, inserting interposers into designated drive bays, connecting cables, loading flash modules, updating firmware, and configuring cache settings via Command View.
Is the cache bundle hot-swappable?
Yes, after initial setup you can replace flash modules and SLC write-log modules without system downtime, ensuring continuous operation.
What maintenance is required for the cache bundle?
Regular firmware updates, health checks via HPE Command View, and periodic module reseating are recommended to maintain optimal performance and reliability.
Does the cache bundle support RAID protection?
The cache tier itself is not RAID-protected, but data integrity is ensured through mirrored SLC write-log modules and HPE’s built-in error correction mechanisms.
How is data protected in case of power failure?
Buffered data in DRAM is backed up to SLC write-log modules, which are powered by built-in supercaps and ensure zero data loss during an unexpected power event.
Can I monitor cache performance and health?
Yes, HPE Command View provides real-time metrics on cache hit rates, I/O latency, module health, and utilization, enabling proactive management.
What warranty coverage does this bundle include?
Comes with a one-year limited warranty on all flash modules and accessories, with optional HPE Care Pack extensions available for up to five years.
Is firmware included for the cache solution?
Yes, the bundle includes the latest firmware and drivers for immediate deployment and compatibility with supported HPE arrays.
How does the bundle affect total cost of ownership (TCO)?
By offloading I/O to high-speed flash, it reduces spindle wear, lowers power/cooling costs, and extends HDD lifecycles, delivering a lower overall TCO.
Can the cache capacity be expanded later?
Yes, you can increase cache by adding compatible flash modules and write-log units, subject to available interposer slots and firmware support.
Where can I purchase the HPE NS CS1000 R2 1.44TB Cache Bundle?
