YA240VC1A001 Seagate Maxtor Z1 240GB SATA 2.5" Consumer SSD

High-Performance 2.5in SATA Internal SSD for OS Boot and Edge Appliances with the YA240VC1A001

The YA240VC1A001 is a 240GB 2.5in internal SATA SSD designed to stabilise boot and client-storage tiers in cost-sensitive enterprise endpoints, entry servers, and appliance platforms. As a SATA device, the YA240VC1A001 targets broad backplane compatibility where PCIe/NVMe lanes are reserved for accelerators, high-speed NICs, or primary data tiers, while still delivering responsive application launches and reduced latency versus HDDs.

With sequential throughput up to 540MB/s read and 425MB/s write, the YA240VC1A001 fits OS volumes, hypervisor boot partitions, and local service data where predictable reads dominate and write amplification is controlled. Endurance is rated at 90TBW and 0.342 DWPD, aligning the drive to light-write duty cycles such as office VDI endpoints, edge gateways, and management-plane nodes. The 2.5in form factor and hot-swap capability simplify service workflows in SATA bays, while low power draw supports thermally constrained chassis and always-on deployments.

Why Choose the YA240VC1A001?

The YA240VC1A001 provides an efficient density-to-performance balance for organisations standardising on SATA for boot and local caching, without consuming PCIe resources needed elsewhere in the platform. By deploying the YA240VC1A001 as a dedicated OS and utility tier, IT teams can improve system responsiveness, reduce mechanical failure exposure compared to HDD boot drives, and scale consistently across mixed desktop, edge, and entry rack environments.

Seagate engineers its SSD portfolio with a focus on dependable firmware behaviour, measurable endurance targets, and integration into common data centre operating practices. The Maxtor Z1 series approach supports straightforward qualification, predictable lifecycle management, and alignment with standard 2.5in SATA service models.
