Product overview
SSDPE21D960GAX1 is an Intel 960GB PCIe 3.0 X4 2.5-in U.2 3D xpoint SSD. Mixing drive models inside one array leaves the group running at the slowest member's latency, and this is a PCIe device. Tell us what is already in the shelf and we will match it rather than merely fit it.
If the part is wrong for your platform we will say so and suggest the one that is, which is cheaper for both of us than a return.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against SSDPE21D960GAX1 specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
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.
Carrier and firmware confirmed
The drive, the caddy it needs and the firmware family the controller expects are all checked as one order.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is SSDPE21D960GAX1 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 SSDPE21D960GAX1 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, since 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.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Training throughput is limited by how fast data reaches the accelerators, which is why AI nodes are specified with NVMe in front of the GPUs.
