Cisco UCSX-SD480G63X-EP= 480GB 2.5 in SATA SSD | Enterprise Storage — UCSX-SD480G63X-EP=

Keep critical server workloads responsive with 480 GB of enterprise SATA SSD capacity in a compact 2.5-inch form factor. This Cisco-qualified Intel SSD is designed for UCS platforms that need predictable storage performance for boot drives, virtualization layers, and application volumes without consuming extra rack space. The 6 Gb/s SATA interface makes it a practical fit for mixed enterprise deployments where compatibility and steady throughput matter more than raw burst speed. Compared with consumer-class drives, enterprise SSDs are built for sustained operation in always-on infrastructure, helping reduce latency spikes and support more consistent service levels. Its 480 GB capacity is well suited for operating systems, hypervisor images, and frequently accessed data sets that benefit from flash responsiveness. For teams standardizing on Cisco hardware, this drive offers a controlled path to upgrade aging mechanical storage while preserving the service profile expected in production environments.
