The Samsung PM1743 harnesses the power of the PCIe 5.0 x4 interface to deliver up to 14 GB/s sequential read and 6.6 GB/s sequential write speeds, nearly doubling the bandwidth of PCIe 4.0 models. With random read speeds reaching up to 2.5 million IOPS, it enables lightning fast data ingestion for AI model training, significantly reduces batch processing times, and enhances responsiveness in virtualized environments. This leap in throughput makes it a powerful solution for storage bound workloads, eliminating bottlenecks and ensuring faster results for critical operations.
The PM1743 is equipped with a dual port architecture that provides two completely independent data paths between the drive and the host system. In the event of a failure on one path, whether caused by hardware faults, connection issues, or scheduled maintenance, the second path immediately takes over to maintain uninterrupted access to data. This capability is crucial for mission critical environments where every second of downtime can impact operations or cause data loss. Beyond fault tolerance, dual port redundancy enables load balancing between the two paths, helping to optimize performance during heavy workloads. The result is a storage solution that delivers consistent availability, operational stability, and the reliability needed for enterprise level applications.
Available in both 2.5 inch U.2 and EDSFF E3.S form factors, the PM1743 offers capacities ranging from 1.92 TB to an impressive 15.36 TB. Power efficiency is improved by 30% compared to PCIe 4.0 drives, reducing operational costs while maintaining peak performance. Integrated enterprise grade security features, including an embedded security processor with Root of Trust, safeguard sensitive data from unauthorized access. Built on advanced V-NAND technology, it ensures long term reliability and is fully compatible with enterprise storage management tools for smooth integration into existing infrastructure.
The Samsung PM1743 represents a new performance benchmark for enterprise SSDs, combining breakthrough PCIe 5.0 speeds, unmatched reliability through dual port redundancy, exceptional energy efficiency, and robust security. Designed for AI, cloud, and hyperscale workloads, it delivers the speed, capacity, and uptime required for tomorrow’s data driven operations.
