Dell S3520 960 GB read-intensive SSD
This Dell S3520 solid-state drive provides 960 GB of capacity over a 6 Gbps SATA interface. It uses MLC flash tuned for read-intensive workloads in a 2.5-inch form factor. The drive is validated for Dell PowerEdge servers including R640, R740, R740XD, R750 and R760 models.
Suited for read-heavy server tiers.
The read-intensive endurance profile fits boot volumes, content delivery and database read replicas. Workloads that sustain heavy random writes — such as transaction logging or high-frequency caching — exceed the design target and should select a drive rated for mixed or write-intensive use.
6 Gbps SATA interface decides compatibility
The drive communicates over a 6 Gbps SATA link and requires a backplane or controller that supports this protocol. A backplane or controller that only supports PCIe will not work with this unit.

Domande su questo articolo
Does my server need a 2.5 inch SATA drive bay to install this SSD?
Yes, the drive uses the 2.5 inch form factor and connects through a standard SATA interface, so an available 2.5 inch SATA bay is required.
Will this S3520 drive work in a PowerEdge R630 that currently uses older SATA SSDs?
The R630 is on the supported server list and the drive uses the same 6Gbps SATA interface, so it will operate alongside existing SATA storage without protocol changes.
How can I confirm the SSD is recognised and healthy after installation?
Check the server BIOS or iDRAC storage inventory to see the model SSDSC2BB960G7R listed with 960GB capacity, then run a SMART health check to verify firmware and media status.
