Axiom

Axiom 816899-B21-AX enterprise SSD 480 Gb 2.5 inch Sata

SKU CH-VTTT-30456 MPN 816899-B21-AX

Enterprise hot-swap SSD delivering 480 Gb capacity and up to 99K read IOPS for 24/7 data-centre workloads

  • Optimized for latency-sensitive mixed-use workloads with V-NAND technology
  • Hot-swap 2.5 inch form factor enables Sata 6Gb/s infrastructure expansion
  • Read-intensive endurance rated at 1.4 DWPD for 24/7 data center operation
  • Sustained read/write IOPS up to 99K/18K delivers consistent throughput
  • Enterprise power-loss protection plus temperature monitoring safeguards data integrity

Built for Data-Center Workloads

The Axiom 816899-B21-AX is a 480 Gb enterprise SSD designed for latency-sensitive, mixed-use applications in 24/7 data-center environments. It uses 3-bit MLC V-NAND flash to deliver consistent IOPS and low latency for converged and virtualised architectures.

Hot-Swap SATA Installation

The 2.5 inch Sata 6Gb/s hot-swap form factor allows the drive to be inserted or removed without powering down the server, simplifying maintenance. Compatibility depends on the host system supporting hot-swap SATA bays; non-hot-swap backplanes or cabled installations will not take advantage of this feature.

1.4 DWPD Endurance Rating

The drive is rated for 1.4 Drive Writes Per Day, which defines its suitability for read-intensive and mixed workloads. Workloads that exceed this write endurance should select a higher-DWPD model.
