Intel DC 400GB SATA 6Gb/s 2.5 inch enterprise SSD, a higher endurance hot-plug drive for servers and workstations, refurbished.
The 400GB capacity in Intel's DC series SATA SSD range marks a drive with extra over-provisioning: the same flash as a 480GB drive with more of it held back, which gives higher endurance and steadier write performance. It is a 2.5 inch SATA 6Gb/s enterprise drive with hot-plug support for servers and workstations, and it is refurbished and sold bare. Buyers in Qatar use the 400GB Intel DC drive where writes are heavier than a boot volume sees, such as a database log disk, a hypervisor with local virtual machines, or a workstation that renders and compiles all day. ServerDove keeps it in Doha stock alongside the 480GB read intensive version.
SSD-INTEL-400G-DCForm factor 2.5 inch SFFSpecification
Intel's mixed use DC series SATA drives are rated for several full drive writes per day, compared with under one for the read intensive models, and the difference shows in how they hold performance when written continuously. For a workload that rewrites the same few hundred gigabytes constantly, a database log, a build cache, a virtual desktop pool, the 400GB drive is the right Intel SATA part. Power loss protection and end-to-end data protection are standard in the series.
Buyers who are unsure which grade they need can reason from the workload: if the volume is rewritten less than once a day, the 480GB read intensive drive is enough; if it is a log, cache or scratch disk that churns constantly, this 400GB drive is the safer choice and will hold its performance longer. Both drives share the same interface, form factor and firmware family, so they can be mixed in one server in separate volumes.
Installation
Fit the drive to the server's 2.5 inch caddy, not included, and hot-plug it, then assign it on the RAID controller; for a write heavy role, a mirror rather than a parity array keeps latency low. In a workstation, connect SATA data and power in a 2.5 inch bracket. Keep the drive's firmware current with Intel's tools, and leave some capacity unused if writes are extreme, which extends its life further.

Why buy refurbished
Enterprise hardware, tested in Doha, at a fraction of the price of new
Every unit we sell has already proven itself in a data centre. We test it again, grade it, and back it with a warranty before it leaves our stock.
Tested before it ships
POST, burn-in, memory and power-supply checks on every unit. Anything that fails is repaired or pulled from stock, not sold.
Same performance, lower cost
A Xeon runs the same workloads whether it is new or two years old. Spend the difference on more CPUs, memory or storage.
In stock, not on order
New enterprise hardware can take weeks or months to arrive. Ours is on the shelf in Doha and delivered across Qatar within a day.
Warranty and local support
Every unit is covered. Installation, configuration and hardware support are handled by our own team in Qatar, not a call centre abroad.
