Key features
Hyperscale Capacity Density: Packs a massive 15.36TB of enterprise storage into a compact 2.5-inch footprint, allowing data centers to maximize rack density, consolidate footprints, and lower overall Power and Cooling (TCO) costs.
Next-Gen Gen 4.0 Performance: Leverages extreme PCIe Gen 4.0 x4 lanes to unlock blistering data throughput up to 7,000+ MB/s, eliminating storage bottlenecks and supercharging parallel data pipelines.
Massive AI & Analytics Acceleration: Fuels heavy read-centric enterprise applications, providing up to 1,450,000 Random Read IOPS to optimize Big Data analytics, AI/ML model ingestion, and high-density virtualization.
Hardware-Level Data Safeguards: Features robust Power Loss Protection (PLP) technology utilizing internal capacitors to safely flush in-flight data to non-volatile flash memory during unpredicted datacenter power drops.
Maximum Enterprise Endurance: Engineered with advanced 3D TLC NAND architecture providing a reliable 1.0 Drive Writes Per Day (DWPD) profile and an ultra-durable 2.5-million-hour MTBF rated for non-stop 24/7 server environments.
Seamless Hot-Swap Maintenance: Ships fully pre-assembled in a precision-engineered Dell hot-plug drive carrier, allowing IT technicians to swap, upgrade, or maintain storage online without bringing the server down.
