HDD Dell 1600 GB 2,5 pollici NVMe Enterprise Mixed Use SED 400-BMVP

The Dell 400-BMVP is a 1.6 TB 2.5" NVMe enterprise-class drive engineered for mixed-use workloads in data center and server environments. Designed to provide consistent low-latency access and sustained throughput, this drive supports self-encrypting drive (SED) capabilities to help protect stored data. Its 2.5" form factor and NVMe interface make it suitable for dense server and storage platforms where performance and security are required together.

Advantages

This NVMe drive combines high-capacity flash storage with enterprise-grade endurance and mixed-use optimization to handle both read- and write-intensive tasks. Built-in self-encryption simplifies data protection without additional software, while the enterprise design emphasizes reliability, predictable performance, and compatibility with modern server architectures. The compact 2.5" form factor aids integration into rack-mounted and blade systems.

Suitable for

• Virtualized server environments and hyperconverged infrastructure
• Databases and transaction processing with mixed read/write patterns
• High-performance business applications and analytics
• Boot and cache tiers in multi-tier storage architectures

Key specifications

• Capacity: 1.6 TB (usable flash capacity)
