Product Overview
The EMC 005052379 is a 3.84TB enterprise SSD designed for EMC Unity platforms, using a 12G SAS interface in a 2.5-inch (SFF) form factor. It’s a practical option for expanding flash capacity or replacing failed media in Unity arrays where predictable I/O and consistent latency are required. For broader platform alignment and additional parts in the same ecosystem, explore related EMC options.
In Unity configurations, SAS SSDs like this are commonly used to accelerate hot data tiers for mixed workloads such as virtualisation, databases, and shared file services in data center and colocation environments. Where you need to balance performance with bulk capacity, complementary spinning-disk alternatives are available under HDD.
Key Features
Key specifications and deployment-relevant characteristics for enterprise storage environments:
- 3.84TB SSD capacity to increase usable flash storage in Unity arrays and compatible SAS backplanes.
- 12G SAS interface to support enterprise storage connectivity and stable performance under sustained workloads.
- 2.5-inch (SFF) drive form factor to fit common Unity and enterprise chassis drive bays.
- Enterprise SSD media characteristics to support 24/7 operation in storage arrays and dense server environments.
- Low-latency flash behaviour to improve responsiveness for VM datastores, databases, and transactional I/O.
- Consistent IOPS delivery compared to mechanical disks to reduce performance variability during peak utilisation.
- Dual-port SAS design (typical for enterprise SAS SSDs) to support redundant paths in high-availability architectures.
- Suitable for RAID-protected configurations to align with array policies for availability and data protection.
Refurbished Quality and Warranty
This is refurbished hardware, cleaned and tested by technicians before entering stock to help reduce the risk of hardware defects. Choosing refurbished SSDs is a practical way to extend the lifecycle of existing Unity deployments, reduce electronic waste, and control budget compared to buying new.
All products include a one-year warranty from the date of purchase (batteries, tape drives and tape libraries include a three-month warranty). Extended warranty options are available on request. For installation in supported chassis, match the drive to the correct CADDY, and for host-side integration where applicable, consider compatible RAID CONTROLLER options.
