Industrial 2.5-Inch SATA SSDs

An industrial SATA SSD is a solid-state drive in the standard 2.5-inch hard-drive format, built for wider temperatures, higher endurance and longer product life than consumer drives. AMP supplies industrial 2.5-inch SATA SSDs from 8GB to 20TB, including 16TB, in commercial, industrial and automotive grades.

Industrial SATA SSDs for Embedded, Rugged & Server Systems

AMP 2.5-inch SATA SSDs deliver SATA III 6Gb/s storage in the standard 7mm and 9.5mm drive enclosures used by embedded computers, industrial equipment, workstations and servers. The standard SATA data and power connection makes them a practical solid-state replacement for compatible 2.5-inch hard drives. Commercial (0°C to 70°C) and industrial (−40°C to 85°C) grades support both climate-controlled and harsh-environment deployments, and automotive-grade drives add conformal coating and underfill for vehicles, rail and field equipment.

NAND options range from pSLC for write-intensive workloads to 3D TLC and BiCS5 TLC for capacity-driven applications up to 16TB. Choose drives with a DRAM cache, which can add power-loss protection, or lower-cost DRAM-less drives from 64GB to 4TB. Options such as power-loss protection, AES encryption, TCG Opal and secure erase are available on selected drives, and Common Criteria, CSfC and FIPS 140 configurations can be supplied for qualifying programs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a 2.5-inch SATA SSD replace a hard drive?

Usually. AMP 2.5-inch SATA SSDs use the standard SATA data and power connector and 7mm or 9.5mm enclosures. Check the drive-bay height, mounting and host capacity support before you order.

What capacities and NAND types are available?

Capacities range from 8GB to 20TB, with 3D TLC, BiCS5 TLC and pSLC options depending on the product family. For MLC, to verify availability.

Is a 16TB 2.5-inch SATA SSD available?

Yes. 15.36TB 3D TLC drives are available in commercial, industrial and automotive grades, and 16TB drives are also available. Common Criteria certified drives go up to 20TB.

Which NAND type should I choose?

Match it to how much your system writes. Write-heavy workloads such as data logging suit pSLC, while mostly-read data such as an operating system, applications or media files works well on 3D TLC.

Are industrial-temperature 2.5-inch SATA SSDs available?

Yes. AMP industrial SATA SSDs are rated from −40°C to 85°C, and commercial drives from 0°C to 70°C. Use the temperature filter in the catalog to see them.

What makes a SATA SSD industrial grade?

Mainly the operating temperature and endurance. Industrial drives are rated −40°C to 85°C, compared with 0°C to 70°C for commercial drives, and high-endurance options use SLC or pSLC NAND for write-heavy workloads. Industrial drives also tend to add power-loss protection, conformal coating or a fixed bill of materials on selected parts. Each product page lists what that drive supports.

Are 7mm and 9.5mm drives interchangeable?

Both use the same 2.5-inch SATA connector, but the enclosures differ in thickness. A 7mm drive usually fits a 9.5mm bay, sometimes with a spacer, but a 9.5mm drive will not fit a 7mm bay.

Are FIPS 140, Common Criteria or CSfC drives available?

Yes. AMP 2.5-inch SATA drives from 250GB to 20TB, including rugged R-SATA versions, are NIAP Common Criteria certified and on the NSA CSfC Components List for hardware full drive encryption. See Common Criteria & CSfC drives for the certified models. FIPS 140 is a separate validation, and AES-256 encryption alone is not FIPS 140, so with the standard you need and AMP will confirm the exact part, firmware and certificate status.

Do all 2.5-inch SATA SSDs include the same protection features?

No. Encryption, TCG Opal, secure erase, power-loss protection, hot-swap support, conformal coating and underfill vary by product family and part number. Each product page lists what that drive supports.

Can AMP help replace an end-of-life 2.5-inch SATA drive?

Yes. Send the existing part number, host system, capacity, enclosure height, temperature range and annual quantity, and AMP will recommend compatible options to qualify.
