Dell 480GB SATA 6Gb/s M.2 Boot SSD for BOSS (7RKD7)

Dell servers often keep the operating system off the main data drives by booting from an M.2 SSD on a BOSS controller. The Dell 7RKD7 is a 480GB M.2 SATA SSD made for that job.

It connects over SATA at 6Gb/s. That is plenty for a hypervisor or operating system install, and it frees every front drive bay for application storage. Because it is a boot device rather than a capacity drive, the 480GB size leaves room for the OS, logs and updates.

Buyers order 7RKD7 to fit a new BOSS card, to build a mirrored pair of boot drives, or to replace an M.2 SSD that has worn out or failed.

We offer it New or Refurbished, and both conditions come with 1 year or 3 years of warranty. If you need a matched pair for a mirrored boot set, mention it when you send the request.
