Dell 400-AESV 200 GB SAS SSD

This 2.5-inch internal solid state drive connects through a 12 Gb/s SAS interface and provides 200 GB of capacity. It is built for Dell systems that accept hot-pluggable SAS storage, including servers, desktops and compatible notebooks.

Thermals noise and power in normal use

Solid-state construction means no moving parts, so the drive runs silently and produces minimal heat during typical mixed-use workloads. Power draw stays low compared with mechanical drives, helping keep system thermals manageable.

Hot-plug tray and Dell firmware

The bare drive is designed for hot-swap bays, allowing insertion or removal without powering down the host. Dell firmware optimises compatibility with supported 13G platforms and enables the drive to report health status through standard management tools.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 400-AESV 2.5" SAS drive in a hot-plug server bay?

Slide the bare drive into the 2.5-inch hot-swap carrier until the SAS connector seats firmly, then lock the carrier latch; the drive is hot-pluggable so the server stays powered on.

What maintenance or replacement will the 200 GB MLC SAS SSD need later?

MLC NAND wears with write cycles; monitor SMART health attributes and replace the drive when the media-wear indicator approaches the rated endurance limit.

What limit appears first on the 400-AESV during sustained 12 Gb/s SAS writes?

The 200 GB capacity fills quickly under heavy write workloads, so free-space exhaustion becomes the practical bottleneck before interface saturation.
