Description

The KIOXIA KPM5XRUG7T68 is a 7.68 TB enterprise-grade solid state drive built for high-density storage and read-intensive workloads. Designed in the 2.5″ SFF form-factor (15 mm height) with a SAS-12 Gb/s interface, this SSD is fully compatible with server and storage array environments demanding reliable performance and large capacity. 

Branded for Dell EMC as part number 0RRXD7 (and also marketed as GT7GT), this drive is tested to integrate seamlessly into Dell platforms including the Dell EMC SC5020 storage array when installed with the correct hot-swap tray or caddy. 

With a “read-intensive” rating of approximately 1 Drive Write Per Day (DWPD), this drive is optimized for use-cases that demand sustained read throughput, large capacity and enterprise reliability rather than heavy write loads.

The KPM5-series delivers up to ~2,100 MB/s sequential read/write and up to ~370-385K IOPS random read (4 KiB) under dual-port mode, enabling high-performance storage arrays and server boot, cache or tier-2 applications. 

For any system integrator or data-center manager looking to implement a “Storage Array SSD” upgrade with fewer drives and higher capacity, this 7.68 TB SAS SSD provides an excellent balance of capacity, performance and cost-efficiency. Ensuring compatibility with the Dell SC5020 via proper caddy/tray is key for smooth integration.

Key Features

  • Capacity: 7.68 TB in an enterprise 2.5″ SSD form-factor
  • Interface: SAS-12 Gb/s (SAS-3.0) with dual-port/MultiLink support for high availability 
  • Designed for read-intensive workloads with endurance rating ~1 DWPD 
  • High performance: up to ~2,100 MB/s sequential read/write; up to ~385K IOPS random read (4KiB) 
  • Enterprise reliability: power-loss protection, end-to-end data protection (T10 DIF) support 
  • Compatible with Dell EMC part numbers 0RRXD7, GT7GT, and fits standard 2.5″ 15 mm SAS hot-swap trays used in arrays like SC5020

Compatibility

Ensure that your storage platform (such as the Dell EMC SC5020) supports 2.5″ SAS drives in hot-swap trays and accepts enterprise SAS SSDs with dual-port architecture. The drive should be seated in a compatible caddy/tray to ensure firmware recognition and reliable operation. 

Although the interface is SAS-12 Gb/s, the drive is backward compatible with 6 Gb/s SAS backplanes — however full performance is achieved only with 12 Gb/s capable controllers. 

If you are installing into a Dell SC5020 array, verify that firmware is up to date and that the chassis supports 15 mm height 2.5″ drives. Using the correct Dell OEM tray/caddy is strongly recommended for compatibility.

Usage Scenarios

In a storage array upgrade scenario, this 7.68 TB “Storage Array SSD” allows you to replace multiple smaller drives with one high-capacity drive, simplifying management and reducing rack footprint. It is highly suited for read-intensive workloads such as virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), large-scale web serving, or media streaming.

For server-based applications requiring dense storage—like caching layers, metadata stores or tier-2 storage clusters—this “High-Capacity Server Drive” delivers enterprise reliability and performance in a compact 2.5″ form factor.

In enterprise rack deployments or data-centers where hot-swappable drives, dual-port redundancy and minimal downtime are required, this SSD’s dual-port design supports multipath and high availability configurations.

If you are updating your Dell SC5020 or similar SAS-12 Gb/s infrastructure and want to stay backward compatible while boosting capacity, this drive offers a plug-and-play upgrade path with verified part numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q1: Does the KPM5XRUG7T68 work in Dell EMC SC5020 storage arrays?
    A1: Yes — when installed in the correct 2.5″ hot-swap tray/caddy and within a SAS-12 Gb/s capable backplane, the drive is fully compatible with the SC5020. Confirm firmware & tray compatibility for your chassis.
  • Q2: Can this SSD replace multiple smaller SAS drives to save slots?
    A2: Absolutely. With 7.68 TB capacity in a single 2.5″ slot, it allows you to consolidate storage and reduce drive count, cabling and power overhead while maintaining enterprise SSD reliability.
  • Q3: Is this SSD suitable for heavy write workloads?
    A3: The drive is optimized for read-intensive usage (~1 DWPD). For write-heavy or mixed-use workloads, you may want a “mixed-use” or “write-intensive” SAS SSD variant.
  • Q4: What tray/caddy do I need for this drive in a Dell chassis?
    A4: You’ll need a Dell-compatible 2.5″ SAS hot-swap tray (15 mm height) that supports enterprise SAS SSDs—using the correct caddy ensures firmware recognition and optimal operation.
