NEW Kingston A400 240GB SATA 2.5in SSD SA400S37/240G

New Kingston 240 GB A400 SATA SSD, a client-class boot drive for 2.5-inch bays in Dell PowerEdge and HPE ProLiant servers. SATA SSDs run on a 6 Gb/s SATA link that SAS and SATA controllers and backplanes all accept, which makes them the most widely compatible flash in a server. The lines we stock run from datacenter drives with power-loss protection and published endurance ratings to client-class drives for boot volumes and light duty, so the model matters more than the interface.

Specifications

Compatibility

A 2.5-inch SATA drive at 6 Gb/s: it runs on PERC, Smart Array and HBA controllers and on SAS or SATA backplanes, since SAS controllers accept SATA drives, but not in an NVMe-only bay. Dell 13th gen trays differ from 14th to 16th gen trays, and HPE uses its own carriers; we match the tray to your chassis. A 3.5-inch bay needs a 2.5-to-3.5 adapter carrier.

When to Choose This

Choose the A400 240 GB for a boot volume, a hypervisor install or a lab box. It is a client drive: the datasheet lists no power-loss protection and rates it 80 TBW, so it is not for RAID write duty, databases or VM datastores. For those, the Kingston DC600M carries capacitor-backed power-loss protection and 1 DWPD. A mirrored pair of A400s makes a fine light-duty boot set.
