Dell SSD in UAE

The UAE’s appetite for low-latency infrastructure — fintech, cloud, AI inference and VDI — runs on solid-state media. ICD supplies genuine Dell EMC SSDs into the Emirates from Cairo, delivering the correct endurance class, interface and carrier into Internet City, Dubai South and Abu Dhabi free-zone environments.

Dell flash we supply

Transactional clusters do well on the 400-ATNN 1.92 TB Mixed-Use, read-dominant tiers on the 0VND6F 960 GB RI SAS, and large LFF flash pools on the 0N3TXF 3.84 TB.

Match endurance to the workload

Dell rates flash by Drive Writes Per Day. Read-Intensive (RI, ~1 DWPD) suits boot drives, content delivery and read-heavy databases. Mixed-Use (MU, ~3 DWPD) is the safe default for virtualisation, transactional databases and logging. Write-Intensive (WI, ~10 DWPD) is reserved for the most write-saturated caching and OLTP. The single most expensive mistake is dropping an RI drive into a heavy-write role — it wears out fast and fails early. Share the workload profile and we size endurance precisely.

SAS, SATA and dedicated boot

SAS SSDs (12G, dual-port) give you the queue depth and path redundancy that clustered and software-defined storage want; SATA SSDs (6G) are the economical choice for boot and general datastores. For the OS boot mirror, modern PowerEdge servers use the BOSS (Boot Optimised Storage Subsystem) M.2 card, which keeps the boot pair off your data bays — we recommend quoting a BOSS card alongside front-bay data flash so you don’t burn a hot-swap slot on the operating system. Carrier generation (DXD9H, G176J, X7K8W) must match the chassis.

UAE delivery

Shipping from Cairo, ICD moves Dell flash into Emirates free zones quickly, supporting refresh and expansion projects for cloud and fintech tenants where firmware-consistent, matched SSD batches keep arrays stable and predictable.
