Enterprise SSDs for Performance, Reliability, and Scalability

Get real-time analytics, optimize your data infrastructure, and seamlessly scale with enterprise NVMe™ SSDs.

Benefits of Enterprise SSDs

Accelerate Access to Critical Data

From Large Language Models to IoT networks, the data-driven economy demands faster, more reliable access to data. With solid state technology, Sandisk can help drive complex, high-capacity workloads and applications.

Push Your Performance with NVMe

Powered by NVMe, enterprise solid state drives (eSSDs) can help accelerate data center workloads, achieve maximum throughput, and transform your data into actionable insights for your whole team.

Unlock Data Intelligence with Key Tech

Key advancements in NAND scaling, QLC flash memory, and NVMe have enhanced performance across our portfolio. Learn more about what they can do for your business applications.

Top Considerations for Choosing Enterprise SSDs

Enterprise SSDs come in multiple form factors, each suited to different deployment needs:

  • The 2.5" U.x form factor, the most common PCIe Gen4/5 form factor, is hot-swappable and widely supported in server front panels.
  • Add-In Cards (AIC) offer higher bandwidth but are not hot-swappable.
  • EDSFF SSDs
    • The E3.S and E3.L form factors are gaining traction, especially for PCIe Gen5 applications, due to improved thermal and power management support.  
    • E1.L remains a preferred form factor in hyperscale deployments, valued for its high density and airflow-optimized design.  

Key Takeaway: Choose the form factor that aligns with your server layout, cooling strategy, and serviceability requirements.

Next-Gen Enterprise SSD Technologies for Faster, Smarter Workflows

Fast Data for Fast Decision-Making

Speed is a business imperative. Confidently make game-changing decisions with fast access to your data. Stay ahead of ever-changing market trends and industry competition with the streamlined compute, storage, and network resources you need to scale in real time.

Unlock Data Intelligence

Data analysis can extract insights that lead to better business decisions, efficiencies in productivity and automation, and even bring unexpected value.

Accelerate Your Business

With Sandisk, capture, organize, and access the latest data for critical analytics and enterprise workflows. Our portfolio of high-performance SSD devices can access, read, and write datasets with ultra-low latency so you can respond — rather than react — to changing needs.

NAND

Sandisk controls NAND production end-to-end, from wafer to finished product, allowing tighter quality assurance and 
innovation velocity. 

NVMe

Designed for high-performance, NVMe is a protocol that is well suited for highly demanding and compute-intensive enterprise, cloud, and edge data ecosystems.

QLC

Quad-level cell (QLC) flash memory is a capacity-optimized NAND memory technology that delivers a per-terabyte cost that rivals that of hard disk drives (HDDs).
