KIOXIA SSD PM-7R 1920GB 2.5-inch SAS 24Gbit/s DWPD 1 3D TLC BiCS Flash Enterprise SSD SED PLP

The KIOXIA PM-7R is a high-performance enterprise SSD designed for mixed-use workloads, offering 1920GB of storage capacity in a 2.5-inch form factor. With a SAS-4 interface (24Gbit/s) and Kioxia BiCS FLASH 3D TLC NAND, it delivers exceptional sequential read speeds up to 4200 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 3000 MB/s. This drive features Power Loss Protection (PLP) and Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) with Sanitize Instant Erase (SIE) for enhanced data security.

Advantages

Optimized for enterprise environments, the PM-7R provides high endurance with 1 DWPD (Drive Writes Per Day) over 5 years, ensuring reliability for demanding applications. Its low power consumption (13W active, 5.5W idle) reduces operational costs, while end-to-end data protection and field-updatable firmware maintain data integrity and ease of maintenance.
