Overview
The Dell 345-BEFW is a 960GB NVMe SSD in a 2.5-inch U.2 hot-plug carrier, engineered for maximum storage performance on Dell PowerEdge 15th and 16th generation servers. NVMe bypasses the SAS/SATA storage stack entirely, communicating directly with the CPU over PCIe lanes. The result: up to 6x the throughput and 10x lower latency compared to SAS SSDs. This Mixed Use drive handles both read and write intensive workloads — databases, caching layers, and high-performance virtualization.
