Dell 42XXC 960 GB SAS enterprise SSD

The Dell 42XXC is a 960 GB solid-state drive built for Dell PowerEdge servers that require a 12 Gbps SAS connection. It uses mixed-use TLC flash with hardware encryption and fits the standard 2.5 inch hot-plug bay found across the supported platforms.

12 Gbps SAS interface and mixed-use endurance

The drive communicates over a 12 Gbps SAS link, so it will only operate at full speed in backplanes and controllers that support that signalling rate. Mixed-use TLC flash targets workloads with a balanced read-write ratio rather than write-intensive or read-only profiles.

Sustained write consistency under mixed workloads

Under continuous mixed-use traffic the TLC media and controller maintain steady throughput without the sharp drops seen in consumer drives during long writes. Hardware-based encryption adds no measurable latency during sustained operation.

Questions about this item

How does the 12Gbps SAS speed translate to real throughput once the drive is installed?

The 12Gbps SAS interface delivers up to 12Gbps of raw bandwidth; actual throughput depends on the controller, workload and queue depth in your server.

What does the SAS interface cap in practice for this SSD?

The SAS link is rated at 12Gbps, which sets the maximum data rate between the drive and the controller; the drive cannot exceed this link speed.

What physical slot or bay does the 2.5-inch form factor need to fit this drive?

The 2.5-inch form factor fits standard 2.5-inch drive bays in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers such as the R640, R740, R750 and R760.
