Product Description
IBM ADTC 1.6 TB NVMe Storage Class Memory Drive
The IBM ADTC is a high-performance, ultra-low-latency 2.5-inch NVMe Storage Class Memory (SCM) drive designed for enterprise storage environments that demand extreme responsiveness, high endurance, and consistent sub-millisecond performance. This 1.6 TB NVMe SCM drive bridges the gap between DRAM and traditional flash storage, delivering DRAM-like speeds with persistence and significantly higher IOPS for the most latency-sensitive workloads including high-frequency trading, real-time analytics, in-memory databases, caching layers, metadata servers, and performance-critical tier-0 applications in compatible IBM systems.
Key Features
- Capacity: 1.6 TB
- Interface: NVMe (PCIe-based, optimized for ultra-low latency)
- Form Factor: 2.5-inch (SFF), hot-swap compatible
- Drive Type: NVMe Storage Class Memory (SCM)
- Extremely low latency (typically <10 μs) for read/write operations
- High endurance and consistent performance under sustained heavy workloads
- Enterprise-class reliability with durable design for 24×7 mission-critical operation
- Supports advanced storage features including tiering acceleration and integration with IBM Storage Virtualize

Compatibility
This 1.6 TB NVMe Storage Class Memory Drive is compatible with select IBM storage platforms that support SCM technology, including IBM FlashSystem 9500, IBM FlashSystem 7300, IBM FlashSystem 7200 (with appropriate firmware and SCM support), and other high-end models/enclosures configured for 2.5-inch NVMe SCM drives. It integrates with IBM Storage Virtualize software to enable ultra-fast tier-0 caching, performance acceleration, and storage virtualization features. Always verify current firmware levels, enclosure slot support, SCM-specific licensing, and system configuration compatibility, as SCM drives have specific hardware and software requirements compared to standard NVMe flash drives.
