Samsung PM9A3 3.84 TB U.2 NVMe SSD

This Samsung PM9A3 drive delivers 3.84 TB of encrypted storage in a 2.5 inch U.2 form factor. It connects through a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe interface and includes 256-bit AES hardware encryption with TCG Opal support. The drive suits servers and workstations that require high-capacity, secure NVMe storage in a hot-pluggable bay.

Capacity and headroom

At 3.84 TB the drive comfortably holds operating systems, applications and large active datasets such as databases or video projects. Sequential workloads benefit from the PCIe 4.0 x4 link, while the U.2 connector enables hot-swap serviceability in compatible backplanes. The single-port design limits redundancy, so arrays needing dual-port failover will require a different drive.

Questions about this item

Will the U.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 interface work in my older server that only has PCIe 3.0 U.2 bays?

Yes, the drive is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 U.2 bays and will operate at PCIe 3.0 x4 speeds.

How can I verify the 256-bit AES encryption is active after installation?

Use a TCG Opal management tool to confirm the drive shows as locked and the encryption status reads active.
