High-capacity enterprise SSD for servers

This Samsung PM1653 drive delivers 30.72TB of storage in a 2.5-inch form factor. It uses a SAS interface operating at 24.0 Gbps and is built with V-NAND TLC technology. The unit is supplied new in OEM tray packaging for server deployment.

Suited for arrays needing maximum density

This SSD fits servers equipped with compatible SAS disk controllers that can address 30720GB per bay. It is not for systems lacking a 24.0 Gbps SAS host bus adapter or for workloads that require a different physical interface. Buyers needing a non-SAS connection should look elsewhere.

SAS 24.0 Gbps interface dictates compatibility

The dual-port SAS link provides sequential reads up to 2100 MB/s and random reads of 400K IOPS. The controller must support this exact signalling rate and the dual-port topology for the drive to function. Verify the server backplane and HBA specifications before purchase.
