Description

960GB NVMe Gen4 U.3 SFF 2.5-inch SSD optimized for read-intensive workloads such as boot, VDI, web, and analytics. The Basic Carrier (BC) design suits platforms requiring U.3 cabled or non–hot-plug bays; confirm chassis/backplane needs. Multi Vendor V2 sourcing helps ensure supply continuity while meeting enterprise performance targets. Requires an NVMe-capable U.3 backplane/controller for operation.

Features

- PCIe 4.0 NVMe interface for low latency and high throughput
- U.3 SFF 2.5-inch form factor for modern server backplanes
- Read-optimized endurance profile for cost-efficient performance
- Basic Carrier option for platforms using cabled/non–hot-plug bays
- Multi-vendor V2 sourcing for supply continuity and qualification

FAQs

Q: Will this work in a U.2 bay?
A: U.3 uses the same SFF-8639 connector, but compatibility depends on the backplane and controller. A U.3-capable (tri-mode) backplane/controller is typically required.

Q: Is this hot-plug?
A: Basic Carrier (BC) models are commonly used in cabled or non–hot-plug bays. Check your chassis/backplane documentation for hot-plug capability.

Q: What workloads suit a Read Intensive SSD?
A: Boot volumes, VDI, web servers, and analytics with high read/write ratio are ideal. For heavy write workloads, consider mixed-use or write-intensive SSDs.

Q: Can I mix this with other capacities in a RAID?
A: RAID allows mixing, but effective capacity aligns to the smallest drive and performance may vary. Matching models/capacities is recommended.

Q: Do I need a special controller?
A: Yes. You need an NVMe-capable controller and a U.3-compatible backplane to utilize this drive.
