IBM 320GB High IOPS SD Class PCIe Flash Adapter for System x (feature 0097)

Flash on a PCIe card removes the drive bay from the picture, and that is the idea behind the IBM 46M0878. It is a 320GB High IOPS SD Class adapter, listed under IBM feature code 0097, and it sits in a PCIe slot as an adapter instead of in a front-loading bay. Listed compatible systems: the IBM System x3650 M3 and the IBM System x3690 X5. If you run either machine and want fast local storage without using drive slots, this is the kind of part to consider. Capacity, interface and form factor are the only technical fields we hold, so we avoid any speed claims despite the High IOPS name. Because it needs a free PCIe slot, check your slot map before ordering. The 46M0878 is offered refurbished, with a choice of 1 year or 3 years of warranty, and used, with a 90 day warranty. No new offer is listed. Send the server model and quantity and we will reply with pricing.
