Boost your storage performance with the IBM AGT3 3.84TB NVMe Flash Drive, a dependable industry-standard NVMe SSD built for high-speed data access and consistent low-latency performance in demanding environments. This drive provides balanced capacity and efficiency, making it a strong option for integration into compatible IBM FlashSystem arrays.
Key Features
- Capacity and Performance — Supplies 3.84 TB of usable storage, delivering fast read/write speeds and high IOPS suitable for mixed workloads and general-purpose applications.
- Interface — PCIe NVMe for significantly lower latency, higher bandwidth, and better overall throughput than legacy interfaces.
- Form Factor — Compact 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF) for straightforward installation in supported enclosures.
- Encryption Support — Compatible with system-level hardware-based AES-256 encryption when used in supported IBM FlashSystem configurations.
- RAID Support — Functions in DRAID or traditional RAID setups; identical capacities are required within the same array to maintain optimal performance and data integrity.
