Dell 480 GB SAS SSD

This Dell solid-state drive provides 480 GB of storage in a 2.5-inch form factor with a 12 Gbps SAS interface. The 512e sector format and mixed-use endurance rating suit general-purpose server and storage-array workloads. Hot-plug capability allows drive replacement without powering down the chassis. Solid-state construction eliminates moving parts for greater shock resistance.

Suited for Dell server upgrades

IT teams expanding capacity in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers or storage arrays will match the original part number 400-BCLW. The SAS interface requires a controller or backplane that supports 12 Gbps SAS signalling. Systems without SAS infrastructure or that need higher write-endurance drives should consider other options.

12 Gbps SAS interface

The drive connects via a dual-port 12 Gbps SAS link, which determines both maximum throughput and compatibility with the host controller. Verify that the target system supports this interface speed and the 2.5-inch hot-plug carrier before purchase.
