Enterprise capacity for data centres

The Western Digital Ultrastar DC SN640 provides 7.68TB of storage in a 2.5 inch form factor. It connects through a PCI Express 3.1 x4 NVMe interface. The drive is built for servers and storage arrays that need high capacity and consistent throughput.

Thermal envelope and power profile

The component operates between 0°C and 70°C under normal workloads. Sequential reads reach up to 3100 MBps while sequential writes reach up to 1800 MBps. Random read performance hits 467000 IOPS and random writes hit 65000 IOPS within this temperature range.

Behaviour under sustained load

The SSD maintains its rated speeds during extended transfers rather than only in short bursts. Steady state random reads stay at 467000 IOPS and writes at 65000 IOPS. The PCIe 3.1 x4 NVMe link keeps latency predictable for database and virtualisation tasks.

Questions about this item

Will this 2.5" drive fit in a standard 2.5" U.2 hot-swap bay?

The drive uses a 2.5" form factor with a PCIe 3.1 x4 NVMe interface, matching the physical and electrical requirements of U.2 bays designed for NVMe SSDs.

What workloads can the 467000 random read IOPS and 65000 random write IOPS actually handle?

Those figures support heavy read-centric workloads such as database indexing, virtualisation hosts and content-delivery caches where low-latency random access matters most.

Does the 70 °C operating limit require extra cooling in a 1U server?

The drive is rated for 0 °C to 70 °C; in a 1U chassis ensure airflow keeps the drive surface below 70 °C under sustained write loads of up to 1800 MBps.
