Axiom SSDEP65HN7T6‑AX 2.5″ 7.68TB SAS 24Gb/s SSD

Overview

The Axiom SSDEP65HN7T6‑AX is a 2.5‑inch enterprise SAS solid state drive designed for high‑capacity, high‑throughput block storage in data centers, virtualization clusters, and SAN/NAS server environments where redundant dual‑port connectivity and hot‑swap capabilities are required. It is deployed by storage architects, system integrators, and infrastructure engineers tasked with building or scaling high‑availability storage tiers with efficient space utilization and predictable performance. This SKU addresses workloads such as mixed virtual machine data stores, analytics databases, and consolidated file services requiring sustained SAS throughput and robust endurance.

This SSD employs a SAS 24 Gb/s interface with full‑duplex dual‑port design to enable simultaneous redundant access paths from SAS controllers and backplanes, which supports multi‑path redundancy and failover without interrupting service. It delivers sustained sequential read throughput up to approximately 4,200 MB/s and sustained sequential write throughput approaching 3,700 MB/s, bolstered by strong random I/O performance for mixed workload efficiency.

Physically, the drive adheres to the 2.5‑inch hot‑swap form factor compatible with rack servers, blade systems, and enterprise storage shelves supporting SAS 24 Gb/s modules. Hot‑swap capability permits service without host power‑down, which is critical for 24/7 operations in enterprise deployment. Its endurance profile supports approximately one drive write per day over a typical five‑year deployment lifecycle with enterprise reliability metrics.

This unit is suited for deployment in large‑scale storage arrays that demand large capacity, multi‑tenant VM datastore traffic, high‑performance database tiers, and clustered storage nodes that benefit from redundant SAS paths. It is not intended for desktop, consumer NAS, or infrastructures limited to SATA or 12 Gb/s SAS backplanes, as full performance and redundancy capabilities require compatible enterprise infrastructure.
