Page 25 highlights

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. Also, Express Flash drives use a standardized 2.5-inch 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 T620 has an option to support up to four 2.5-inch, hot-plug Express Flash drives with capacities of 175GB or 350GB. These drives can be configured to RAID 0 or RAID 1 through the OS RAID option. Only the 8- or 16-drive bay chassis option supports Express Flash drives, and the T620 system must also have two processors, six system fans, and one removable media storage device. For additional configuration requirements, contact your Dell sales representative. The T620 supports the external storage devices types listed in Table 13.
