Product Description
The IBM 9009 ES95 387GB SAS SFF-2 4k SSD (Part Number: 00LY333) is a high-performance 2.5-inch solid-state drive designed for IBM Power Systems running IBM i. With a 6 Gbps SAS interface, 387GB capacity formatted with 4224-byte sectors, and CCIN 5B13, it features a 256MB DRAM cache and eMLC4 technology for 10 drive writes per day (DWPD). The drive is supported in EXP24SX SAS bays for Power9 servers but is incompatible with system unit SFF-3 bays due to form factor differences. It delivers reliable, high-speed storage for virtualization and data-intensive applications, with error correction for robust performance. The ES95 is optimized for Power9 servers like 9009-41A, supporting demanding workloads like ERP and databases. This SSD offers a cost-effective solution for upgrading storage, enhancing scalability and reliability in challenging environments, ensuring efficiency and data integrity.

Compatibility
The IBM 9009 ES95 387GB SAS SFF-2 4k SSD (00LY333) is compatible with IBM Power Systems running IBM i, providing high-performance storage for EXP24SX SAS bays. It supports Power9 servers, such as 9009-22A, 9009-41A, 9009-42A, 9119-MME, and 9040-MR9, but is incompatible with system unit SFF-3 bays due to form factor differences. The drive, with CCIN 5B13, uses 4224-byte sectors for IBM i and requires compatible SAS controllers (e.g., EJ0L, EJ14) for connectivity. It cannot be mixed in arrays with drives of different sector sizes. The ES95 optimizes system performance, supporting virtualization and critical data-intensive applications like ERP and databases:
- Power9: 9009-22A, 9009-41A, 9009-42A, 9119-MME, 9040-MR9.
- Supports IBM i with 4224-byte sectors.
- Requires EJ0L or EJ14 SAS controllers with EXP24SX bays.
Note: Incompatible with SFF-3 bays; requires matching sector sizes.
