Dell 960GB SAS enterprise SSD

This Dell MWGK7-CP1 is a 960GB 2.5-inch enterprise solid-state drive with a 12Gbps SAS interface and read-intensive MLC flash. It is built for Dell PowerEdge servers and storage arrays that use SAS drive bays.

Suits read-heavy server workloads

The drive targets read-intensive applications such as web serving, content delivery and virtual desktop infrastructure where write endurance is secondary. It is not suited for write-heavy databases, logging tiers or workloads that exceed its read-optimised endurance rating.

12Gbps SAS interface and 960GB capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the 12Gbps SAS interface combined with 960GB of read-intensive MLC capacity; the server backplane and controller must support 12Gbps SAS and the workload must align with read-optimised endurance.

Questions about this item

Will this 12Gbps SAS SSD work in a PowerEdge R630 that currently uses 6Gbps drives?

Yes, the 12Gbps SAS interface is backward compatible with 6Gbps controllers in the R630, though the drive will operate at the lower link speed.

How can I verify the MWGK7-CP1 is recognised and healthy after installation?

Check the PERC controller BIOS or iDRAC storage view; the drive should appear as a 960GB SAS SSD with a ready status and current firmware.

Does the package include a 2.5-inch drive tray or caddy for a PowerEdge R740?

The item is the bare SSD module only; a Dell 2.5-inch hot-plug tray must be sourced separately for the R740.
