SKU CH-ZQ7S-YHSXV

Enterprise 2.5" SATA SSD with 480 GB capacity, 525 MB/s read, 485 MB/s write, 256-bit encryption, hot-swappable and RoHS compliant

  • 525 MB/s read speed accelerates data access
  • 485 MB/s write speed supports heavy workloads
  • 256-bit encryption protects sensitive information
  • Hot-swappable 2.5" design enables drive replacement without downtime
  • 480 GB capacity fits enterprise storage needs

Capacity & role

The Axiom EP400 delivers 480 GB of enterprise-grade solid-state storage in a 2.5" SATA form factor. It is built for servers and storage arrays that require consistent read and write performance under sustained workloads.

Build & connectivity

The drive uses a SATA 600 interface and supports hot-swap installation in compatible bays, allowing replacement without system downtime. It carries 256-bit encryption and RoHS environmental certification for regulated deployments.

Upgrade path

This SSD replaces mechanical hard drives in read-intensive server roles where 525 MB/s read and 485 MB/s write speeds reduce latency. The jump is worth it when 480 GB capacity meets the dataset size and a five-year limited warranty matches the refresh cycle.

Questions about this item

What does the SATA 600 interface limit the EP400 to in real transfers?

The SATA 600 link caps sequential reads at 525 MB/s and writes at 485 MB/s, so the drive cannot exceed those throughput figures.

What physical slot and mounting does the 2.5" hot-swap EP400 require?

It fits a standard 2.5-inch hot-swap bay with the SFF connector; no adapter or caddy is needed beyond the bay itself.

How is the EP400 installed, and which step is often missed?

Slide the drive into the hot-swap bay until the latch clicks, then verify the OS recognises the 480 GB volume and enables 256-bit encryption before putting it into production.
