Dell Calypso I/O Controller Card

This Dell DGK85 Calypso I/O controller card adds a 120GB SATA M.2 drive in a full-height bracket. It is designed for administrators expanding boot or cache storage inside compatible Dell PowerEdge servers. The card installs directly into a standard expansion slot.

SATA Interface Limits

The onboard SATA link sets the practical throughput ceiling for the installed M.2 drive. Sequential reads and writes will not exceed the SATA 6 Gbit/s maximum. Random I/O performance is similarly bounded by the controller and the drive firmware.

120GB Capacity Headroom

The 120GB drive provides enough space for a hypervisor boot image, a small OS partition or a modest write cache. It will fill quickly if used for general data, logging or large scratch volumes. Buyers needing more capacity should look elsewhere.
