Dell 1.92 TB SAS 24 Gbit/s Read Intensive 2.5-inch SSD with 3.5-inch Hybrid Carrier

This Dell solid-state drive provides 1.92 TB of storage capacity in a standard 2.5-inch form factor. It connects via a SAS interface that supports a 24 Gbit/s data transfer rate, intended for high-performance server and storage array applications. The drive is specifically engineered for read-intensive (RI) workloads, delivering consistent throughput for applications that primarily access, rather than write, data. It is validated for integration with select Dell PowerEdge servers and PowerVault storage arrays, offering predictable system compatibility.

The drive ships with a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier, which enables versatile mounting in drive bays that accommodate either 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch hardware. This design facilitates straightforward physical integration and supports hot-swap functionality in compatible platforms, allowing for drive maintenance without system downtime. Its operational focus makes it suitable for tasks such as data caching, virtualization, and accelerating database queries where rapid data retrieval is the primary performance metric. The drive utilizes a 512e sector size for interoperability within established enterprise IT infrastructures.
