Axiom 480GB EP400 LFF SATA SSD

This enterprise-class solid-state drive provides 480GB of internal storage for server environments. It connects via a SATA 6Gb/s interface and fits a 3.5-inch hot-swappable bay. The drive delivers sequential reads up to 525MB/s and writes up to 485MB/s. Hardware-based 256-bit encryption and RoHS compliance support data security and environmental standards.

Suited for Dell servers needing hot-swap SATA

This drive suits administrators upgrading or repairing compatible Dell systems that accept 3.5-inch SATA SSDs. The hot-swap capability allows replacement without powering down the chassis. It is not for systems that require a PCIe interface, nor for installations limited to 2.5-inch drive bays. Buyers needing a different capacity or form factor should verify their server specifications first.

SATA 6Gb/s interface and 3.5-inch hot-swap form

The SATA 600 interface determines host compatibility and maximum throughput for this drive. The 3.5-inch hot-swappable form factor dictates whether it physically fits the target server bay. Confirm both the interface standard and the bay size against the system documentation before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Axiom 480GB EP400 LFF SSD in a Dell server, and which step is often missed?
