According to analysts, in the next few years, many IT companies and corporate data centers will be looking for alternatives to traditional SATA and SAS interfaces. Samsung was one of the first companies to invest in the development of server SSDs and began active cooperation with vendors like Broadcom. Thanks to this, PM series SSDs are constantly evolving and claim to be the industry standard in the field of server equipment.


The range of the PM series is extremely rich, diverse and focused on solving different types of problems. The latest models of the PM1653 level with support for the SAS 24G interface are created with an eye on next-generation servers and storage systems. Self-produced 128-layer flash memory allows you to increase the maximum memory capacity to 30 TB. Classic NVMe SSDs with PCI-E 4.0 support are often available in two form factors (2.5-inch and HHHL) to suit the needs of different manufacturers.

As befits server drives, all Samsung PM SSDs have a high DWPD (approx: one to five), which means the number of permissible rewrite cycles per day. For connection, interfaces of different versions of PCI-E third and fourth generation and SAS with a bandwidth of 12 to 24 Gb/s are used. The minimum memory capacity starts at 256 GB, up to a maximum of 7.68 TB, but after switching to the sixth generation of flash memory, Samsung was able to increase the maximum capacity to 30.72 TB.
