Intel SSDSC2KB480GZ1Z 480GB 2.5" SATA III SSD

Designed for servers and workstations, this internal solid-state drive offers 480 GB of storage. The 2.5-inch form factor ensures compatibility with existing drive bays and hot-swap caddies. It connects via a SATA III interface. Replacing mechanical storage with this SSD improves system responsiveness and application load times. Virtualization hosts and high-performance workstations benefit from the consistent data access speeds of flash storage. Its dimensions match standard enterprise SATA drives, allowing for simple replacement.

The drive uses TLC 3D NAND flash memory, balancing data density with endurance. It is rated for a mean time between failures (MTBF) of two million hours. To prevent data loss during unexpected power outages, the drive features integrated power-loss protection. This ensures that data is written to non-volatile memory before the device shuts down. This feature helps administrators maintain data integrity across storage pools.
