Dell / Samsung PM1735 1.6TB NVMe SSD

The Dell / Samsung PM1735 1.6TB NVMe SSD (MZ-PLJ1T60 / Dell P/N 0Y7D7D) is a high-performance enterprise-grade solid-state drive designed in a Half-Height Half-Length (HHHL) PCIe add-in card format. Built on Samsung’s PM1735 platform, it utilises PCIe 4.0 x8 bandwidth to deliver significantly higher throughput than standard M.2 or U.2 drives, making it suitable for data-intensive environments where sustained performance and low latency are critical. This is a server-class storage device intended for enterprise systems rather than consumer desktops.

Engineered for demanding workloads such as virtualization, high-frequency transaction processing, AI inference, and large-scale database operations, the drive combines Samsung 3D TLC V-NAND with a robust enterprise controller architecture. It delivers very high sequential and random performance, alongside consistent latency under heavy sustained loads. Enterprise features such as end-to-end data protection, power-loss protection, and advanced wear-levelling ensure reliability and data integrity in mission-critical environments.

As a Dell-certified OEM variant, this model is validated for compatibility within Dell enterprise platforms and typically ships with firmware tuned for stability and long-term endurance. The HHHL PCIe form factor allows it to bypass traditional drive bays entirely, installing directly into a PCIe slot for maximum bandwidth efficiency. With multi-petabyte endurance ratings and enterprise-grade thermal and power management, it is designed for continuous 24/7 operation in dense datacentre and high-performance computing deployments.
