U.2 NVMe SSDs connect over four PCIe lanes instead of through a SAS or SATA controller, so they need an NVMe-wired bay and backplane; a SAS or SATA bay cannot run them. They are the low-latency, high-IOPS tier for databases, virtualization and caching, and a PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 drive runs at the PCIe generation the host bay provides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePart number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMZWL6960HFJA-00AW7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCapacity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e960 GB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInterface\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNVMe, PCIe 5.0 x4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eForm factor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5-inch SFF, 15 mm U.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEndurance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 DWPD, 1,752 TBW, 5 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSequential read\/write\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12,000 \/ 1,500 MB\/s Gen5; 6,400 \/ 1,400 Gen4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRandom read\/write\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e950K \/ 70K IOPS at PCIe 4.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower loss protection\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCondition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNew\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180-day\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt needs an NVMe-wired U.2 bay; a SAS or SATA bay or a PERC SAS port cannot run it. No tagged host has a PCIe 5.0 U.2 bay: the 14th gen servers link at PCIe 3.0 and the 15th and 16th gen servers at PCIe 4.0, and the drive runs at that generation. A Gen5 drive buys headroom, not Gen5 speed, in these servers. We match the 2.5-inch tray to your chassis.

Its 70K random write IOPS and 1,752 TBW suit boot and light logging, not a database volume. For a data volume step to the PM9D3a 1.92 TB, which doubles both, or to the mixed-use Solidigm D7-P5620 1.6 TB for write-heavy duty at 3 DWPD.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery part we sell is tested and covered by our 180-day warranty.
