Dell 503M7 960GB SAS SSD

This Dell 503M7 is a 960GB solid-state drive built for 12Gbps SAS interfaces in a 2.5-inch form factor. It adds high-speed storage capacity to compatible Dell systems and supports hot-swap installation for straightforward maintenance. The MLC flash architecture underpins the drive's rated transfer performance.

Suits servers and arrays with 12Gbps SAS backplanes

The drive fits 2.5-inch hot-swap bays and delivers 960GB of capacity over a 12Gbps SAS link. It is not for systems that lack a SAS controller or that cannot accommodate a 2.5-inch SFF device. Buyers who need a different interface or a larger form factor should look elsewhere.

12Gbps SAS interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines whether this is the correct part is the 12Gbps SAS interface. The host must provide a matching SAS connection and a 2.5-inch bay that accepts hot-swap drives. Without that interface the drive will not function.
