SAMSUNG PM897 480GB SATA 2.5" 7mm MZ7L3480HBLT-00A07

SKU CH-1FG5-P2Z5Y MPN MZ7L3480HBLT-00A07

Enterprise SATA SSD with 480 GB capacity and 3 DWPD endurance for mixed workloads

  • 480 GB capacity supports demanding enterprise workloads
  • SATA 6Gb/s interface enables reliable data transfers
  • 5 inch 7mm form factor fits standard server bays
  • 3 DWPD rating ensures high endurance for write-intensive tasks
  • 3D TLC NAND technology delivers consistent performance and efficiency

Capacity and purpose

This Samsung PM897 provides 480 GB of enterprise-grade solid-state storage in a 2.5 inch 7mm form factor. It is built for servers and storage arrays that require consistent write endurance and power efficiency.

SATA interface limits

The drive connects through a SATA 6Gb/s interface, which caps maximum sequential throughput at the bus limit. Random IOPS and sustained write performance will not exceed what the SATA protocol allows.

Write endurance rating

A 3 drive writes per day endurance rating defines the workload this drive can sustain over its warranty period. Workloads exceeding this write intensity will require a higher endurance model.

Questions about this item

Which capacity of the PM897 series should I choose for a server boot drive?

The 480 GB model provides enough space for the operating system, logs and a small application set while keeping the cost per gigabyte low for read-intensive workloads.

What does the 3 DWPD rating mean for daily operation in a real server?

It guarantees you can overwrite the full 480 GB capacity three times every day for the warranty period without exceeding the endurance specification.

How does the SATA 6 Gb/s interface limit performance in practice?

Sequential reads and writes are capped at the SATA bus maximum, so the drive delivers consistent throughput up to that ceiling rather than the higher speeds of PCIe-based alternatives.
