The Supermicro PM863a SATA SSD is designed for mixed workload data center applications, such as CDNs (content delivery networks), streaming and web servers. Generating a better performance-to-power ratio than HDDs, the PM863a reduces data center operating costs, resulting in lower TCO (total cost of ownership). Furthermore, by using the same 2.5-inch SATA interface, and with capacity options up to 3.84 TB, IT managers can scale up their data centers using existing infrastructure.
