DELL KPM5XVUG960G 960GB SAS 2.5 accessory

SKU CH-7TB9-RZGA6 MPN KPM5XVUG960G

A 960 GB SAS solid-state drive in 2.5 inch form factor for Dell servers

  • Enterprise-grade 960GB capacity for demanding server workloads
  • 12Gb/s SAS interface delivers high-throughput data transfer
  • 5-inch form factor fits standard drive bays
  • Mixed-use MLC flash balances read and write endurance
  • Dell Gen14 design validated for compatible server platforms

Enterprise SAS SSD for Dell Servers

The Dell KPM5XVUG960G is a 960GB solid-state drive built for Dell server platforms. It uses a 2.5-inch form factor with a SAS interface running at 12Gbs. Mixed-use MLC flash handles read-intensive and write-intensive workloads in the same array. This drive is not designed for home PC motherboards or consumer laptops.

Thermals and Power in Server Bays

The drive operates inside standard 2.5-inch hot-swap bays where chassis airflow manages thermals. Power draw scales with the mixed-use workload profile rather than sustained sequential stress. Acoustic output is negligible compared to mechanical drives in the same enclosure. No separate cooling adapter or heatsink is required for supported Dell Gen14 platforms.

Carrier and Firmware Integration

The unit ships in a Dell-branded carrier that matches Gen14 server drive trays for tool-less installation. Signed firmware enables secure boot chains and SMART monitoring through iDRAC or OpenManage. The carrier keying prevents insertion into incompatible backplanes or non-Dell chassis. No additional cables, brackets or software licences are included.

Questions about this item

How do I install the KPM5XVUG960G 2.5 SAS drive in my Dell server?

Slide the 2.5 drive into a compatible SAS bay until the connector seats firmly, then secure it with the server's drive carrier latch; the step often missed is confirming the carrier clicks fully locked before powering on.

What maintenance or replacement will the 960GB MLC mixed-use SSD need later?

The MLC mixed-use SSD has no user-serviceable parts; monitor SMART health attributes in the server management console and replace the drive when the media-wear indicator approaches its rated endurance limit.

What limit appears first on the 12Gbs SAS interface during sustained writes?

Under sustained write workloads the 12Gbs SAS link and the drive's mixed-use endurance rating become the bottleneck before the controller reaches its thermal ceiling.
