Direct fit in compatible M.2 slots for boot/cache.
Accelerates OS and hypervisor boot times in PowerEdge servers with low-latency NVMe access.
Supports VM storage and hyper-converged setups with high read IOPS for dense workloads.
Provides fast metadata and index caching for OLTP databases requiring consistent low latency.
Handles read-heavy web and CDN applications with PCIe Gen4 throughput.
Compact M.2 form fits edge servers for real-time analytics and IoT data processing.
Serves as hot tier in hybrid storage arrays accelerating frequently accessed data.
The Dell 345-BKSR uses PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe interface in M.2 2280 form factor, delivering sequential reads up to 7000MB/s and writes up to 5000MB/s typical for read-intensive TLC SSDs. This enables low-latency access ideal for server boot and caching in high-IOPS environments.
Yes, rated read-intensive with TLC NAND, it excels in read-heavy scenarios like virtualization, databases, and content serving. Endurance supports 1 DWPD over 5 years, balancing cost and performance for datacenter tiering.
Features self-encrypting drive (SED) technology with hardware-based AES encryption, protecting data at rest without performance impact. Supports TCG Opal standards for enterprise security compliance in servers.
Designed for Dell PowerEdge servers with M.2 NVMe slots, including recent generations supporting PCIe Gen4. Fits directly into compatible motherboard slots for boot or cache drives without adapters.
Compact M.2 2280 size saves space in dense servers, reduces weight, and lowers power draw compared to U.2 drives. Enables high-density storage in edge and rack servers with easy integration.
Read-intensive rating typically offers 1 drive write per day (DWPD) for 5 years, equating to around 700TBW for 960GB capacity. Optimized firmware ensures consistent performance under sustained reads.
