High-capacity enterprise SSD for servers
This Samsung PM1653 drive delivers 30.72TB of storage in a 2.5-inch form factor. It uses a SAS interface operating at 24.0 Gbps and is built with V-NAND TLC technology. The unit is supplied new in OEM tray packaging for server deployment.
Suited for arrays needing maximum density
This SSD fits servers equipped with compatible SAS disk controllers that can address 30720GB per bay. It is not for systems lacking a 24.0 Gbps SAS host bus adapter or for workloads that require a different physical interface. Buyers needing a non-SAS connection should look elsewhere.
SAS 24.0 Gbps interface dictates compatibility
The dual-port SAS link provides sequential reads up to 2100 MB/s and random reads of 400K IOPS. The controller must support this exact signalling rate and the dual-port topology for the drive to function. Verify the server backplane and HBA specifications before purchase.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the Samsung PM1653 30.72TB SSD is performing at its rated 2100 MB/s sequential read speed after installation?
Run a server-grade benchmark tool against the dual-port SAS interface and verify sustained sequential reads reach 2100 MB/s and random reads hit 400K IOPS, matching the V-NAND TLC specifications for this 30.72TB model.
What ships with the Samsung PM1653 30.72TB drive and what must I source separately?
The drive arrives as an OEM unit in tray packaging; you must supply a compatible 24.0 Gbps SAS controller, backplane cabling and any mounting hardware for the 2.5-inch slim form factor.
Which capacity version of the Samsung PM1653 should I choose for maximum storage density in a 2.5-inch bay?
The 30.72TB model delivers 30720GB in the 2.5-inch slim form factor, providing the highest density available in this PM1653 SAS series.
