Cisco 1.6TB U.2 WD SN840 NVMe Extreme PE | Enterprise Storage — UCSX-NVMEM6-W1600=

Raise storage performance where every microsecond matters. The Cisco 1.6TB 2.5in U.2 WD SN840 NVMe Extreme PE is designed for enterprise systems that need high-capacity flash in a compact, hot-swappable 2.5-inch U.2 form factor. It fits environments that depend on fast read and write access for virtualization, transactional databases, and mixed workload consolidation. Built around NVMe architecture, this drive helps reduce storage bottlenecks that can slow down compute-heavy applications. The 1.6 TB capacity gives infrastructure teams room to place more active data on flash without expanding footprint, which is valuable in dense server and blade deployments. For Cisco UCS platforms, it supports a storage strategy that prioritizes predictable performance and efficient use of chassis space. This is the kind of component selected when lower-tier storage no longer meets service expectations. It is suited to teams standardizing on enterprise flash for performance tiers, where consistency, endurance, and platform fit matter as much as raw capacity. Ideal For Deploy as high-speed storage for virtualized server clusters Use in database nodes that require fast transaction access Install in Cisco UCS systems for performance-tier flash storage Standardize on compact NVMe drives for dense enterprise chassis Why This Product 1 Higher flash density than smaller-capacity enterprise SSDs 2 Lower latency than SATA-based storage options 3 Compact U.2 fit for dense server chassis 4 Cisco UCS-aligned for platform compatibility
