KPM51VUG3T20 Kioxia PM5-V 3.2TB SAS 2.5" Server SSD

High-Performance 2.5in Enterprise SAS SSD for mixed-use tiers with the KPM51VUG3T20

The KPM51VUG3T20 is a 2.5in, 12Gb/s SAS hot-swap SSD engineered for mixed-use virtualisation and database tiers where consistent latency matters as much as peak throughput. By combining TLC NAND with an enterprise controller and SAS dual-port semantics, the KPM51VUG3T20 aligns with redundant-path architectures and RAID-backed storage pools in modern rack server and blade environments.

Designed for SAS backplane refresh and capacity expansion, the KPM51VUG3T20 sustains balanced read/write behaviour for caching and transactional workloads, supporting up to 2100 MB/s sequential read and 2100 MB/s sequential write with strong 4K random performance. Its 3 DWPD endurance profile over 5 years and integrated Power Loss Protection help maintain write integrity under unexpected power events, while the Power Disable feature supports serviceability and controlled bring-up in dense chassis. Hot-swap mechanics and 2.5M hours MTTF make the KPM51VUG3T20 a practical building block for scalable storage tiers that must remain online during maintenance.

Why Choose the KPM51VUG3T20?

The KPM51VUG3T20 delivers a reliable density-to-performance balance for enterprise SAS infrastructures that need predictable mixed-use behaviour rather than burst-only benchmarks. With dual-port SAS connectivity, hot-swap serviceability, and endurance suited to sustained write activity, the KPM51VUG3T20 fits deployments that prioritise availability, simplified spares strategy, and incremental scaling across 2.5in bays.

Kioxia designs the PM5-V platform with a focus on data-centre operating discipline: controlled power characteristics, robust error management, and features that integrate cleanly with server-class SAS backplanes. This engineering approach supports long-life fleet consistency and helps standardise storage tiers across virtualisation clusters and database nodes.

Key Applications:

• Mixed-use virtualisation storage tiers
• Transactional database volumes
• Read/write caching layers
• SAS backplane refresh projects
