Capacity and Purpose
This Dell H4N87 enterprise SSD provides 15.36TB of NVMe storage for data-centre servers. It is built for read-intensive workloads such as content delivery, virtualisation and large-scale databases. The drive is not suited for write-heavy applications that demand higher endurance ratings. Buyers needing greater write endurance should consider a different class of drive.
Form Factor and Compatibility
The 2.5-inch drive fits standard hot-swap bays in the listed Dell PowerEdge models including R640, R650, R660, R740xd, R750, R760, R770, R840, R940, R960 and XR series chassis. Compatibility is limited to the servers named in the supplier data; other platforms are not verified. Builders using non-Dell or unlisted chassis cannot rely on this drive fitting or functioning correctly.
Thermals and Power
The SSD is designed for continuous operation inside cooled server enclosures with forced airflow. Normal use keeps temperatures within enterprise specifications without additional cooling accessories. Acoustic output is negligible compared to spinning drives and system fans. Power draw scales with workload intensity but remains within typical limits for a 2.5-inch NVMe enterprise device.
Highlights
- 36TB capacity supports large data sets
- NVMe interface enables fast data access
- Gen5 technology delivers high performance

Questions about this item
What NVMe generation does the H4N87 support and what throughput ceiling does that impose?
The drive uses NVMe Gen5, so sequential speeds are limited by the PCIe 5.0 x4 link rather than the controller.
Which drive bay and form factor does the 15.36TB H4N87 require?
It fits a standard 2.5-inch U.2 or U.3 hot-swap bay with 15 mm z-height clearance.
How is the H4N87 installed in a PowerEdge server and what step is often missed?
Slide the carrier into the front bay until the latch clicks, then verify the drive appears in the RAID controller BIOS before initializing the array.
