Dell PX05SVB048Y 480GB SAS SSD

The Dell PX05SVB048Y is a 480GB enterprise solid-state drive with a 2.5 inch SAS interface running at 12Gb/s. It uses MLC flash tuned for mixed-use workloads and is validated for Dell PowerEdge R240, R340, R440, R540, R640, R740, R740XD, R740XD2 and R840 servers.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This drive fits administrators expanding or refreshing storage in the listed PowerEdge models where a 12Gb/s SAS bay is available. Buyers whose servers lack a 12Gb/s SAS backplane or who require a different capacity point should select another part.

Deciding specification

The 12Gb/s SAS interface is the single specification that determines compatibility; the drive will only operate in a bay that supports this exact interface speed and physical connector.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 12Gb/s SAS SSD draw during sustained write workloads?

The drive is rated for mixed-use endurance with MLC NAND, which typically keeps steady-state power below the 12Gb/s SAS envelope for continuous operation.

Does my server backplane need a 2.5" SAS 12Gb/s connector to install this PX05SVB048Y?

Yes — the SSD uses a standard 2.5" SAS 12Gb/s interface, so the backplane or HBA must provide that exact connector and protocol.

Will the 480GB SAS SSD work in a Dell R640 alongside older 6Gb/s SAS drives?

The drive negotiates down to 6Gb/s on legacy backplanes, so it will operate in an R640 mixed with earlier SAS devices.
