Dell PowerEdge M620 Technical Manual page 21

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, which allows a common management process for all drives.
The PowerEdge M620 has an option to support up to two Express Flash PCIe SSD drives (available
Q2 2012) with the PCIe SSD backplane configuration. This backplane configuration may be selected
at purchase, but may not be upgraded later.
Dell provides highly capable RAID options for you to ensure that your data remains safe. Dell's RAID
