Axiom

Axiom SSDEV10LC480-AX enterprise SSD 480 GB 3.5" SATA 256-bit encrypted

SKU CH-ZZH6-DY9EC MPN SSDEV10LC480-AX

Encrypted 480 GB enterprise SSD with 256-bit AES, 500 MB/s read and 440 MB/s write over SATA 6Gb/s, hot-swappable 3.5-inch form factor

  • Hardware encryption protects data with 256-bit AES
  • Hot-swap support allows drive replacement without downtime
  • 480 GB capacity stores critical enterprise workloads
  • Sequential read speed reaches 500 MB/s over SATA
  • Sequential write speed sustains 440 MB/s for consistent throughput

480 GB encrypted enterprise SSD

The Axiom SSDEV10LC480-AX is a 480 GB enterprise solid-state drive with 256-bit AES encryption. It uses a SATA 6 Gb/s interface in a 3.5 inch form factor that supports hot-swap installation. The drive delivers sequential reads up to 500 MB/s and writes up to 440 MB/s. It carries RoHS certification and a five-year limited warranty.

Suited for secure SATA storage arrays

This drive fits servers and storage arrays that require hardware encryption on a standard SATA interface. The 3.5 inch hot-swap form factor simplifies maintenance in compatible bays. Environments that need faster throughput, lower latency or a different physical size should consider other drive types.

256-bit AES encryption decides fit

Hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption is the defining feature for data-at-rest security requirements. If your deployment mandates encrypted drives on a SATA 6 Gb/s backbone, this model meets that specification. If encryption is not required, a non-encrypted drive may offer better value.

Highlights

  • Hardware encryption protects data with 256-bit AES
  • Hot-swap support allows drive replacement without downtime
  • 480 GB capacity stores critical enterprise workloads
  • Sequential read speed reaches 500 MB/s over SATA
  • Sequential write speed sustains 440 MB/s for consistent throughput

Questions about this item

Does my server need a 3.5-inch hot-swap bay and a SATA 6 Gb/s backplane to use this 480 GB drive?

Yes, the drive fits a 3.5-inch hot-swap tray and connects through a SATA 600 interface, so the chassis must provide both the physical bay and the matching backplane.

Can this 256-bit AES encrypted SSD share a SATA backplane with older 3 Gb/s drives?

The drive negotiates down to SATA 3 Gb/s automatically, so it will operate alongside legacy drives on the same backplane at the slower link speed.

How can I verify the 500 MB/s read and 440 MB/s write performance after installation?

Run a sequential benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark or fio against the drive; sustained results near 500 MB/s read and 440 MB/s write confirm the SSD is performing to specification.
