Express Flash drives 
Express Flash drives use PCIe and SSD technologies to provide performance, scalability and optimal 
serviceability. Accelerated performance with high IOPS is made possible without requiring processor 
resources or capturing DRAM. Express Flash drives also use a standardized 2.5” hot-plug form factor 
that saves critical PCIe slot space by moving drives from the back to the front of the system and 
allows a common management process for all drives. 
The PowerEdge R630 has an option to support up to four 2.5”, hot-plug Express Flash PCIe SSDs in 
the 10 x 2.5” chassis.
