Express Flash drives
Express Flash drives use PCIe and SSD technologies to provide performance, scalability and optimal
serviceability. Accelerated performance with high IOPS is made possible without requiring processor
resources or capturing DRAM. Express Flash drives also use a standardized 2.5" hot-plug form factor
that saves critical PCIe slot space by moving drives from the back to the front of the system and
allows a common management process for all drives.
The PowerEdge R630 has an option to support up to four 2.5", hot-plug Express Flash PCIe SSDs in
the 10 x 2.5" chassis.
