Product Description
IBM ACMH 3.2 TB 12 Gb SAS 2.5 Inch Flash Drive Overview
The IBM ACMH 3.2 TB 12 Gb SAS 2.5 Inch Flash Drive (part number 00RY004, feature code ACMH) is a high-performance enterprise SSD utilizing eMLC flash technology. This 2.5-inch SFF drive delivers fast, reliable storage for data-intensive applications, offering low-latency access, advanced error correction for data integrity, and high-speed 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity (backward compatible to 6 Gb/s in select systems). Optimized for demanding workloads such as virtualization, databases, and high-throughput environments, it provides substantial capacity in a compact form factor suitable for IBM Storwize enclosures.
Key Features
- 3.2 TB capacity using enterprise multi-level cell (eMLC) flash for balanced performance and endurance.
- 12 Gb/s SAS interface for maximum throughput (up to 6 Gb/s in compatible older systems like V3700).
- 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF) design for dense storage in Storwize drive bays.
- Advanced error correction and data integrity mechanisms to protect against bit errors.
- Support for IBM Spectrum Virtualize features including storage optimization and virtualization.
- Designed for hot-swap operation in supported enclosures with SAS backplanes.
Technical Specifications
- Capacity: 3.2 TB
- Interface: SAS 12 Gb/s
- Form Factor: 2.5-inch SFF
- Technology: eMLC flash SSD
- Performance: High-speed data transfer enabled by 12 Gb/s SAS; specific IOPS/read/write speeds vary by workload and system configuration.
- Compatibility Requirements: Must be used in SAS bays; cannot mix with drives of different sector sizes in the same RAID array.
Compatibilities
This drive (00RY004 / ACMH) is compatible with IBM Storwize storage systems, including:
- Storwize V3700 (machine type 2072)
- Storwize V5000 (machine type 2078, models such as 2078-124, 2078-224, 2078-324, 2078-24F)
- Storwize V7000 (machine type 2076, models such as 2076-624, 2076-24F)
It integrates with IBM Spectrum Virtualize for advanced storage management. Not compatible with non-SAS interfaces, enclosures without SFF SAS bays, or certain feature codes (e.g., ADN2 or ACWx in initial V5000 orders). Ideal for expanding capacity in IBM midrange storage arrays supporting enterprise workloads.
All systems include a 60-day warranty from DataTechComputer.com.
