400-AOZV – Dell 480GB Multi-Level Cell (MLC) SATA 6Gb/s Hot-Swappable Read Intensive 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive with 3.5-Inch Hybrid Carrier

The Dell 400-AOZV 480GB Read Intensive Solid State Drive (SSD) is an enterprise-grade storage solution designed for Dell PowerEdge servers and data center environments. Featuring a SATA 6Gb/s interface, Multi-Level Cell (MLC) NAND flash technology, Read Intensive (RI) workload optimization, hot-swappable functionality, and a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier, this SSD delivers reliable flash performance, low latency, and efficient deployment for read-focused enterprise applications.

Built with a 2.5-inch SSD mounted in a 3.5-inch hybrid carrier, the drive allows seamless installation into compatible Dell server bays designed for 3.5-inch drives. The MLC NAND architecture provides enhanced endurance and reliability, while the Read Intensive classification makes it ideal for workloads with high read activity and relatively lower write requirements.

The hot-swappable design enables drive replacement or upgrades without powering down the server, minimizing downtime and maintaining business continuity. With 480GB of flash storage capacity, the Dell 400-AOZV is ideal for web hosting, content delivery, virtualization, business applications, cloud infrastructure, and other read-intensive workloads.
