Axiom 960 GB SATA enterprise SSD

The Axiom SSDEP40LC960-AX is a 960 GB internal solid-state drive built for server and storage arrays. It uses a SATA 600 interface and a 3.5 inch hot-swap form factor. Hardware encryption follows the 256-bit AES standard.

Suited for hot-swap bays needing SATA encryption

This drive fits administrators who need removable SATA storage with built-in 256-bit AES protection and 520 MB/s read performance. It is not suited for systems that only accept 2.5 inch drives or interfaces other than SATA 600.

SATA 600 interface with 3.5 inch hot-swap tray

The single specification that decides compatibility is the SATA 600 connection combined with a 3.5 inch hot-swap chassis. Verify the bay and controller support this exact interface and form factor before purchase.
