SKU CH-QCG9-DQVNM MPN SSDEP40DE960-AX

Enterprise-grade 960 GB SATA 600 SSD with 256-bit AES encryption and hot-swap 2.5" form factor

  • 960 GB capacity stores large enterprise workloads
  • 256-bit AES encryption protects sensitive data at rest
  • 520 MB/s read speed accelerates data access
  • 485 MB/s write speed sustains heavy write loads
  • Hot-swap 2.5" SATA 600 design enables zero-downtime drive replacement

Encrypted enterprise SSD

The Axiom SSDEP40DE960-AX is a 960 GB internal solid-state drive built for server and storage arrays. It uses the SATA 600 interface and a 2.5-inch hot-swap form factor, with hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption protecting data at rest. Sequential reads reach 520 MB/s and writes reach 485 MB/s.

Suited for secured hot-swap bays

This drive fits administrators who need encrypted capacity in existing SATA hot-swap backplanes and value the five-year limited warranty. It is not suited for systems that lack a 2.5-inch SATA bay or for workloads that require a different physical interface.

256-bit AES hardware encryption

The drive implements 256-bit AES encryption directly on the controller, securing every block without host software overhead. If your deployment requires self-encrypting storage that complies with RoHS and operates within standard SATA 600 bandwidth, this specification confirms compatibility.
