SSDSC2KF180H6X1 Intel Pro 5400s 180GB SATA 2.5" Server SSD

High-Performance 2.5-inch SATA SSD featuring hardware encryption and low-power endurance with the SSDSC2KF180H6X1

The SSDSC2KF180H6X1 is a 2.5-inch internal SATA SSD engineered for stable OS boot and read-heavy tiers in rack servers, security appliances, and edge nodes where predictable latency and data-at-rest protection are mandatory. As a SATA 6Gb/s device, it integrates cleanly into established server backplanes and embedded platforms without consuming PCIe lanes needed for GPUs, NICs, or accelerator expansion, while still delivering strong sequential throughput and responsive 4K I/O for system services.

Architecturally, the SSDSC2KF180H6X1 uses 2D TLC NAND in a DRAM-less design to prioritise power efficiency and deployment density, making it suitable for high node counts and thermally constrained chassis. It aligns well with CPU-centric infrastructures where memory and PCIe resources are reserved for compute and networking, and local storage is required primarily for boot images, logs, telemetry buffers, and small database volumes with predominantly read patterns.

Why Choose the SSDSC2KF180H6X1?

The SSDSC2KF180H6X1 delivers an enterprise-relevant balance of secure storage, consistent SATA performance, and low operational overhead, enabling scalable rollouts across homogeneous fleets. Its self-encrypting capabilities support compliance-driven deployments, while the compact 2.5-inch form factor simplifies replacement workflows and capacity planning for appliance-like server designs.

Intel designs the SSD Pro platform with a focus on predictable behaviour under sustained operation, validated firmware, and integration fit for modern data centre standards. With enterprise reliability targets and security feature alignment, Intel storage supports controlled lifecycle management across distributed infrastructure.

Key Applications:

• OS boot drives for rack servers
• Logs and telemetry data tiers
• Secure local storage for edge nodes
• Small read-heavy database volumes
• Security and network appliances
