Dell 1.6TB 12Gbps SAS Enterprise SSD

This Dell PM1645a drive delivers 1.6TB of mixed-use storage over a 12Gbps SAS interface. It uses a 2.5 inch form factor with TLC flash technology. The unit is supplied new with updated firmware and tested components.

Suits Dell PowerEdge servers needing mixed-use SAS

IT teams running compatible PowerEdge rack, tower or modular servers gain a validated drive for balanced read and write workloads. Buyers whose systems lack SAS backplanes or require a different capacity must select another part.

12Gbps SAS interface determines compatibility

The drive connects exclusively through a 12Gbps SAS link, so the host controller and backplane must support this exact interface. Without a matching SAS infrastructure the SSD cannot function.

Questions about this item

Which server backplane or controller do I need for this 12Gbps SAS SSD to operate?

The drive uses a 12Gbps SAS interface and requires a compatible SAS backplane or RAID controller in the host server.

Will this 2.5-inch 1.6TB drive fit in the same bays as my existing SAS drives in a PowerEdge R740?

Yes, the 2.5-inch form factor matches standard SAS bays in the R740 and the other listed PowerEdge models.

How can I confirm the SSD is recognised at full 12Gbps link speed after installation?

Check the controller BIOS or management utility — it should report the drive at 12Gbps SAS link speed with the correct 1.6TB capacity.
