What form factor does the MZ3MO30THCLF use?

The Samsung MZ3MO30THCLF-00AW7 uses the E3.S 7.5mm form factor, dimensions 76x112.75x7.5mm, weighing 150g. This enterprise standard enables high-density NVMe deployments in 1U/2U servers with hot-swap bays, replacing U.2 drives while improving airflow and modularity.

Is this SSD compatible with PCIe Gen4 systems?

Yes, the drive supports PCIe Gen3/4/5 x4 modes via backward compatibility. It operates at full Gen5 speeds on capable platforms but maintains high performance on Gen4 backplanes, ideal for mixed-infrastructure upgrades in datacenters.

What endurance rating does it provide?

Rated at 0.3 DWPD with 14.576 PB TBW over 5 years, optimized for read-intensive workloads like cloud object storage and analytics. QLC v7 technology with advanced wear leveling ensures sustained performance without early failure.

What are the key performance metrics?

Sequential reads up to 12,500 MB/s, writes 2,000 MB/s; random 1,700K read / 110K write IOPS. Latencies: 150µs seq read, 20µs rand write. These specs support high-throughput AI datasets and low-latency virtualization.

What sector formats are supported?

Supports 512B default, 520B, 4096B, 4104B, 4112B, 4160B formats for compatibility with advanced filesystems like ZFS, Btrfs, and enterprise RAID controllers requiring non-512B emulation.

Is it suitable for AI workloads?

Yes, high capacity and sequential speeds excel in AI/ML dataset storage and model checkpointing. 30.72TB per drive reduces slot count in GPU servers, with low power aiding dense HGX/DGX configurations.

Product overview

The Samsung MZ3MO30THCLF-00AW7 from the BM1743 series is a high-capacity 30.72TB NVMe SSD engineered for datacenter and hyperscale environments. Featuring PCIe Gen5 x4 interface compatibility with backward support for Gen3/4/5, E3.S 7.5mm form factor, and v7 QLC V-NAND technology, it delivers sequential reads up to 12,500 MB/s, writes up to 2,000 MB/s, random reads to 1,700K IOPS, and writes to 110K IOPS. With 0.3 DWPD endurance rating and 14.576 PB TBW, it supports sustained write-intensive workloads in cloud computing, AI training, web services, and high-performance storage arrays. The compact E3.S design enables high-density deployment in 1U/2U servers, optimizing rack space while maintaining thermal efficiency and power optimization. Enterprise features include power loss protection, advanced ECC, and sector formats from 512B to 4160B for broad compatibility. MTBF of 2.5 million hours ensures five-nines reliability for mission-critical applications. Ideal for replacing U.2 drives in modern NVMe backplanes, it reduces TCO through higher density and lower power per TB.
