Drive details
Fast, reliable boot storage
Enterprise SSDs boot servers and load operating systems far faster than hard drives, and read-intensive models are cost-effective for OS volumes that mostly read data. The 512n format uses native 512-byte sectors for maximum compatibility.
The drive is supplied for 2.5-inch PowerEdge hot-plug bays. Our PowerEdge R440 and R470 ship with 480GB SSDs like this. Need more capacity? See the Dell 1.92TB SSD.
