403-BCSC Dell BOSS-N1 Boot Optimized Storage Solution Controller Card (Dual M.2 NVMe RAID1)

Dell BOSS-N1 — the Boot Optimized Storage Solution for 16th Generation PowerEdge servers. It carries two M.2 NVMe SSDs in hardware RAID1 on a dedicated controller, so the operating system boots from mirrored flash that is completely separate from the data drives. The practical benefit: every front hot-swap bay stays available for payload storage instead of being consumed by a boot pair, and an OS drive failure never touches the data array.

PurposeDedicated OS boot device, isolated from the data backplane

Compatibility

BOSS-N1 takes NVMe M.2 modules only. It is not interchangeable with the earlier BOSS-S1 / BOSS-S2, which take SATA M.2 — fitting a SATA M.2 to an N1 card, or an NVMe M.2 to an S1/S2 card, will not work. BOSS-N1 is the 16G-generation part; verify your PowerEdge model and generation, and note that some chassis require the matching BOSS cable and carrier kit, which are ordered separately.

Recommended Use

Suited to any PowerEdge build where the OS must boot from a redundant mirror without consuming front drive bays — hypervisor hosts, storage nodes, GPU servers and any configuration where all hot-swap bays are committed to data.

Tested & shipped worldwide from ICD, Cairo, Egypt. All parts are tested, inspected, and backed by ICD's quality guarantee.
