Samsung PM1653 30.72TB 2.5" SAS 24Gb/s Enterprise SSD

The Samsung MZILG30THBLA-00A07 is a 2.5 inch enterprise solid state drive that delivers 30.72 TB of storage through a 24 Gb/s SAS interface. By placing this capacity in a standard drive bay, it lets administrators grow databases and virtual machine pools without expanding the server footprint.

Sequential data moves reach up to 4200 MB/s on reads and 3300 MB/s on writes, while random performance tops out at 800 K IOPS for reads and 140 K IOPS for writes. These numbers keep intensive analytics, high-density virtualization, and media streaming workloads responsive even during peak demand.

Samsung builds the PM1653 series on 128-layer V-NAND and equips it with 256-bit AES hardware encryption, end-to-end data protection, tagged command queuing, and data integrity field checks. A mean time between failures of 2.5 million hours and an operating range from 0 °C to 70 °C support round-the-clock duty in demanding rack environments.

IT teams choose this drive when they need to consolidate storage, reduce cabling, and protect sensitive information in applications such as large transactional databases, high-performance compute clusters, and content delivery nodes.
