Cisco UCSX-NVMEM6-W1600 1.6TB U.2 NVMe SSD

Keep critical applications responsive with 1.6 TB of NVMe flash designed for enterprise storage tiers. The 2.5-inch U.2 form factor fits dense server architectures where performance, serviceability, and predictable behavior matter. In Cisco UCS environments, this drive is suited for workloads that need low-latency access to frequently used data, faster application starts, and a storage layer that can keep pace with modern virtualized infrastructure. Compared with lower-cost SATA options, NVMe delivers a more direct path to the CPU and storage stack, which is why it belongs in systems where IOPS and response time affect user experience or transaction throughput. The SN840 family is positioned for enterprise use, making it a stronger fit for production workloads than consumer SSDs or mixed-use drives. For teams standardizing on Cisco hardware, the UCSX-NVMEM6-W1600 helps preserve platform consistency while supporting performance tiers that justify premium flash pricing. Use it where storage delay is visible to the business: virtual machines, database tiers, analytics nodes, and application servers that need flash without compromise. The result is a storage component that earns its place in high-value infrastructure, not just in the bill of materials.
