Manufacturer Information:

• Manufacturer: Kioxia Corporation (formerly Toshiba Memory Corporation)

Key Features:

• Read Intensive Optimized: Designed and optimized for workloads that are predominantly read-heavy (e.g., typically up to 1 Drive Write Per Day - DWPD). This makes it highly efficient and cost-effective for applications like content delivery, social media, and large-scale data analytics.
• High Enterprise Capacity: Offers a substantial 3.84TB of storage, enabling significant data consolidation and a reduced physical footprint for your infrastructure.
• Dual-Port SAS 12Gb/s Interface: Features a secure and resilient dual-port SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) 12Gb/s interface, providing high throughput, robust data integrity, and crucial path redundancy for high-availability enterprise environments.
• Kioxia BiCS FLASH™ 3D TLC: Built with Kioxia's proprietary and advanced BiCS FLASH™ 3D TLC (Triple-Level Cell) NAND technology, delivering a excellent balance of capacity density, performance, and power efficiency crucial for enterprise SSDs.
• Consistent Performance: Engineered to provide stable and predictable performance, ensuring low latency and high IOPS for rapid data retrieval, even under sustained, heavy read workloads.
• Enterprise-Grade Reliability: Designed for 24/7 continuous operation in data center environments. Includes comprehensive features like power loss protection (PLP), end-to-end data path protection, advanced error correction codes (ECC), and extensive monitoring to ensure maximum data integrity and reliability.
• 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF): Utilizes the ubiquitous 2.5-inch form factor, facilitating easy integration into standard enterprise server and storage array drive bays, including hot-plug environments for simplified maintenance.
• Enhanced Security Options: Supports optional security features, including Sanitize Instant Erase (SIE) and Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) with FIPS 140-2 certification, to meet stringent data security requirements (availability may vary by specific part number and region).
