Enterprise SATA SSD for mixed workloads

The Axiom EV200 series delivers 480GB of 3.5-inch SATA storage built on 32 layer V-NAND with 3-bit MLC flash. Sequential reads reach 550 MBps and writes 520 MBps, while 4KB random performance hits 98,000 read IOPS and 24,000 write IOPS. Enterprise power-loss protection and a 2,000,000-hour MTBF target server and storage arrays that demand consistent low-latency I/O.

Thermals and power in typical operation

Active power draw peaks at 4.1W and idles at 1.3W, keeping heat output modest inside dense drive bays. The drive is rated for 0°C to 70°C operating temperature and survives 1,500G shock events, so it tolerates the airflow and vibration profiles common in rackmount chassis without throttling or acoustic penalty.

3.5-inch hot-swap integration

A standard SATA/600 connector and 3.5-inch form factor allow direct insertion into hot-swap backplanes, freeing a 2.5-inch bay adapter and simplifying cabling. RoHS compliance meets environmental procurement rules. Builders needing higher capacity per slot or a PCIe interface will need a different drive class.

Questions about this item

How do I install this 3.5" SATA SSD and what step is commonly missed?

Mount the drive in a 3.5" bay, connect the SATA data and power cables, and ensure hot-swap functionality is enabled in the system BIOS so the drive is recognised without a reboot.

What maintenance or replacement will this 480GB V-NAND SSD need over time?

No scheduled maintenance is required; monitor SMART attributes for media wear and plan replacement when the wear indicator approaches the rated endurance limit.

At what temperature does this enterprise SSD throttle during sustained workloads?

The drive is rated for 0°C to 70°C; sustained heavy I/O will trigger thermal throttling once the internal sensor reaches the upper limit of that range.
