SKU CH-38YN-ABX58 MPN SSDEV20LC480-AX

Enterprise 3.5-inch hot-swap SSD delivering 480 GB capacity with 525 MB/s reads and 460 MB/s writes over SATA 600

  • 480 GB capacity stores critical enterprise data
  • 525 MB/s read speed accelerates database queries
  • 460 MB/s write speed sustains heavy logging workloads
  • 5" hot-swap form factor enables zero-downtime drive replacement
  • SATA 600 interface integrates with existing server backplanes

Enterprise 480 GB SATA SSD

The Axiom SSDEV20LC480-AX is a 480 GB enterprise solid-state drive built for servers and storage arrays that require reliable hot-swap capability. It connects through a standard SATA 6 Gb/s interface and fits a 3.5 inch drive bay for straightforward integration into existing chassis.

Hot-swap 3.5 inch installation

The drive slides into any compatible 3.5 inch hot-swap bay without tools or cable routing, so replacement takes seconds during live operation. Ensure the backplane and controller support SATA hot-plug; some older RAID cards require a firmware update or specific driver to recognise a new drive without a reboot.

Verify SATA 6 Gb/s backplane

Confirm the server backplane and HBA or RAID controller provide a SATA 6 Gb/s link; a 3 Gb/s connection will cap throughput below the rated 525 MB/s read and 460 MB/s write. Check that the operating system or hypervisor includes the AHCI or RAID driver needed to expose the drive at full speed before deployment.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the drive is running at the rated 525 MB/s read and 460 MB/s write after installation?

Monitor sequential read and write speeds with a benchmark tool; the drive should approach 525 MB/s read and 460 MB/s write on a SATA 6 Gb/s port.

What ships with the 3.5" hot-swap SSD and what must I source separately?

The package contains the 480 GB enterprise SSD in a 3.5-inch hot-swap tray; cables, mounting rails and a SATA controller are not included.

Which capacity and interface version of this model should I select for a SATA 6 Gb/s hot-swap bay?

Choose the 480 GB SATA 6 Gb/s variant (SSDEV20LC480-AX) — it matches the 3.5-inch hot-swap form factor and the 600 MB/s interface standard.
