Common Use Cases for SA400M8-480G

The SA400M8-480G is deployed by US enterprises, MSPs, government, and education customers across multiple infrastructure scenarios. Below are the most common deployment patterns Pro Disk Network sees in real-world orders.

  • VMware Datastore — ESXi 7/8 datastores hosting 30–80 VMs per drive. RAID 10 for write-intensive, RAID 5 for read-leaning VM mixes.
  • Citrix / Horizon VDI — Linked-clone master images and write-cache disks. Lower DWPD acceptable since VDI write patterns are bursty.
  • NoSQL & Real-Time Analytics — MongoDB, Cassandra, ClickHouse, Druid hot-tier nodes. NVMe variant strongly preferred over SAS/SATA for query latency.
  • Hypervisor Boot — ESXi, Hyper-V, Proxmox boot drives. Read-intensive (1 DWPD) is sufficient. Mirror two drives for redundancy.
