What endurance does it have?

1 DWPD, about 14,000 TBW over five years. That is a read-intensive endurance class, sized for read-heavy tiers rather than write-heavy databases.

Read-intensive or mixed-use?

Read-intensive. It suits read-heavy tiers - content delivery, analytics, virtualization - rather than write-heavy databases.

Product overview

The Samsung PM9A3 7.68TB (MZQL27T6HBLA-00A07) is one of the most widely deployed data-center NVMe SSDs in hyperscale and enterprise servers, a U.2 (2.5") drive on Samsung V-NAND with a PCIe Gen4 x4 interface. It delivers up to 6,800/4,000 MB/s sequential and is a read-intensive drive at 1 DWPD, the right endurance class for read-heavy workloads like content delivery, analytics, virtualization and capacity tiers. It is a U.2 drive, not M.2, so it needs a U.2 NVMe backplane, and at 7.68TB it packs serious flash density per bay.
