What performance does the Dell 345-BJDT SSD provide?

It achieves sustained 128KiB sequential reads up to 4,200 MB/s, writes up to 1,200 MB/s, random 4KiB reads up to 600,000 IOPS, and writes up to 55,000 IOPS. This read-intensive profile excels in server boot, VMs, and databases with low latency.

Is the 345-BJDT compatible with Dell PowerEdge servers?

Yes, the 2.5-inch hot-swappable SSD with tray fits 2.5-inch hot-swap bays in PowerEdge 14G-16G models like R440, R540, R640, R740, R750, and equivalents, enabling seamless integration without chassis modifications.

What makes this SSD suitable for read-intensive use cases?

TLC NAND and read-optimized controller deliver high endurance for workloads like virtualization and caching, with 1 DWPD rating, power-loss protection, and consistent QoS under sustained reads, outperforming mixed-use drives in read-heavy scenarios.

Does it support data encryption?

Yes, as a SED SSD, it includes hardware-based self-encrypting drive features for data-at-rest protection, compliant with enterprise security standards and simplifying key management in multi-tenant server environments.

What form factor and installation type are used?

2.5-inch SFF form factor with hot-swappable tray carrier for tool-less installation in Dell server bays, supporting front-access maintenance and backwards compatibility with SAS 12Gbps/6Gbps links.

How does SAS 24Gbps benefit deployments?

The SAS-4 interface provides full 24Gbps bandwidth per port, backwards compatible to 12/6/3Gbps, dual-port redundancy, and native command queuing for superior scalability in clustered storage arrays versus SATA.

Product overview

The Dell 345-BJDT is an enterprise-grade 960GB solid-state drive designed for read-intensive workloads in data center environments. Featuring a 2.5-inch hot-swappable form factor with tray compatibility for Dell PowerEdge servers and PowerVault storage, it utilizes TLC NAND flash and SAS 24Gbps interface for superior sequential read speeds up to 4,200 MB/s and random read IOPS up to 600,000. Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) technology ensures data security, while read-intensive endurance profile supports consistent performance in virtualization, database hosting, and application caching scenarios. Hot-plug design minimizes downtime during maintenance, and backwards compatibility with lower SAS speeds enhances deployment flexibility. Ideal for high-density server racks requiring reliable, low-latency storage without write-heavy demands.
