Dell 1.6TB SAS SSD

This Dell PX03SNB160 is a 1.6TB internal solid state drive built for 2.5-inch drive bays. It connects through a 12Gb/s SAS interface and uses eMLC flash optimised for read-intensive workloads. Power-loss protection helps preserve data during unexpected outages. An R Series caddy is included for direct installation.

Suited for read-heavy server roles

The drive suits database caching, web serving and virtualisation hosts where read throughput matters most. It is not intended for write-heavy logging, high-frequency transaction capture or sustained sequential write workloads. Buyers needing higher write endurance or larger capacities should consider other models.

12Gb/s SAS interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the 12Gb/s SAS interface; the host controller and backplane must support this speed and connector. The 2.5-inch form factor and included caddy match Dell R Series drive bays. Verify your system accepts SAS SSDs before purchase.
