960 GB SAS 12Gb/s internal SSD

This 960 GB internal SSD uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface and a 2.5 inch form factor. It is built with SLC memory components and includes a DRAM cache. The drive is designed for read-intensive workloads in storage systems.

Suited for read-heavy arrays, not write-heavy logs

The read-intensive endurance rating makes this drive a fit for workloads such as content delivery, web serving or analytics where reads dominate. Write-heavy applications such as database logging or high-frequency transaction journals should look at a drive with a higher write endurance class.

Read-intensive endurance decides fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the read-intensive endurance type. If the target workload is predominantly read operations the drive matches; if sustained heavy writes are expected a different endurance class is required.

Questions about this item

Will this 2.5" SAS drive fit in my HPE MSA storage system?

The drive is listed as compatible with HPE MSA Storage Systems and uses the standard 2.5" form factor with a 12Gb/s SAS interface.

What workload is the read-intensive endurance rating suited for?

Read-intensive SSDs are designed for workloads with a high ratio of reads to writes, such as web serving, content delivery, or archival storage.

Does the drive include a DRAM cache and what benefit does it provide?

Yes, the specifications list a DRAM cache which helps sustain consistent performance by buffering write operations and mapping tables.
