Product overview
The Samsung 500GB 860 EVO 1.8 inch MLC 6Gb/s SATA SSD is supplied under part number MZ-M6E500. Form factor and connector decide whether a drive physically lands in the bay, and an adapter that fits mechanically can still cost you hot-swap. Give us the chassis and we will check the carrier as well as the drive.
This part is quoted rather than listed, because the price moves with availability. Send the quantity and we will come back with a number we can stand behind.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against MZ-M6E500, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
No substitutions without asking
If we cannot supply the exact code we tell you what we can supply and why, rather than shipping an equivalent and letting you find out.
Endurance matched to the workload
We ask what the drive is being written to before quoting, because a read-intensive part on a write-heavy volume is a warranty claim waiting to happen.
Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is MZ-M6E500 genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes. Supplied new and unopened, so the manufacturer warranty and firmware update path stay supported. No grey-market stock and no refurbished units sold as new.
- Will MZ-M6E500 work in my server?
- Send the server or array model and the controller behind it. We check the carrier, the firmware family and whether the drive is on the platform's supported list — mechanical fit is the easy part.
- Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
- Yes. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.
