Add 4TB of SSD storage to your 2019 or 2023 Mac Pro, including models with the M2 chip, using the 4TB RocketAIC 7505HW PCIe 4.0 x16 NVMe SSD from HighPoint. Built with a full-height, full-length form factor, this PCIe card fits into a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and is equipped with four 1TB Samsung 990 PRO PCIe M.2 SSDs that deliver sequential read speeds of up to 27,125 MB/s and sequential write speeds of 18,771 MB/s. The result is that users will be able to work in high-productivity environments and grueling workflows that demand maximum uptime and transfer throughput.
To further enhance performance, data redundancy, or a combination of both, the RocketAIC 7505HW may be configured as RAID 0, RAID 1, or RAID 10. Other features include a 1.5 million hour MTBF, an endurance (TBW) rating of 2400TB for the solution or 600TB per SSD, a Hyper-Cooling solution with an aluminum heat sink, a low-decibel fan, thermal padding, WebGUI management software, and more.
- Dedicated PCIe Gen4 x16 host bandwidth delivers up to 27,000 MB/s
- Powered by Samsung's 990 PRO M.2 SSDs
- Powerful, low-decibel NVMe Hyper Cooling solution
- 4TB of storage (4 x 1TB)
- Tuned for maximum performance and capacity
RocketAIC Series NVMe AIC SSD
If you are looking for a high-speed storage upgrade or expansion solution for a modern server or workstation platform, NVMe media is a must have. The combination of performance and reliability in a compact package is simply too good to ignore. However, the process of selecting the right NVMe controller and SSD for the job and then determining if the combination is compatible with your computing platform is no easy matter.
Until now, that is. HighPoint has taken the guess work out of NVMe storage technology. If you need fast, reliable turnkey storage, you need a RocketAIC NVMe AIC SSD. RocketAIC Drives employ industry-proven storage technology, precision engineered hardware architecture, and class-leading media from today's premier NVMe media manufactures to deliver the speed, endurance, and reliability customers expect from a professional-grade storage solution.
Designed for Factory-Built Server and Workstation Platforms
RocketAIC drives have been validated with a wide range of workstation and server vendors including Dell, HP, and Supermicro. HighPoint has developed a series of installation guides to provide customers with clear, concise instructions for each supported workstation and server. Each guide examines the target system's PCIe configuration in detail to evaluate the performance potential, mechanical compatibility, and power requirements of each available expansion slot, and also provide a list of recommended RocketAIC NVMe AIC SSDs.
HighPoint's high-density RocketAIC 7505HW series NVMe AIC SSDs are comprised of four Samsung 990 PRO M.2 SSDs, pre-configured to for maximum performance and storage capacity. The full-height, full-length, single-width AIC drive was designed for use with full-sized PC-based tower workstation platforms and was engineered to accommodate professional workflows that demand massive storage capacity, maximum uptime, and uncompromised transfer throughput.
Performance-Focused Hardware Architecture
HighPoint RocketAIC NVMe AIC SSDs incorporate Broadcom PCIe switch chipsets to optimize signal integrity, reduce latency, and maximize transfer throughput. The highly flexible, performance-focused hardware architecture is unique to their NVMe solutions and ensures bandwidth is never wasted. RocketAIC 7505HW series RAID SSDs allocate a dedicated x16 lanes of upstream bandwidth, and x4 lanes of downstream bandwidth to each device port. This enables each AIC to deliver up to 27,000 MB/s of real-world sustained transfer bandwidth.
Powered by Samsung's 990 PRO M.2 SSDs
RocketAIC 7505HW series NVMe AIC SSDs are powered by Samsung's 990 PRO series M.2 SSDs, which deliver client class leading I/O performance and reliability. The RocketAIC 7505HW delivers a potent combination of blazing transfer speeds and high-endurance reliability, and are equally suited for professional workflows and personal high-performance computing applications.
Your Choice: Maximum Transfer Speed & Capacity, Maximum Data Security, or the Best of Worlds
RocketAIC NVMe RAID SSDs were designed to accommodate a wide range of high performance workflows, including AI learning and AV systems, content creation and post-production platforms, and high-speed data ingestion and media capture solutions. RocketAIC drives are shipped pre-configured to maximize storage and capacity but can be easily reconfigured using HighPoint's quick and intuitive management suite.
- Striping (RAID 0) - This mode delivers maximum performance and capacity by linking together multiple NVMe SSDs to act as a single storage unit.
- Mirroring (RAID 1) - This mode creates a hidden duplicate of the target SSD and is ideal for applications that require an extra layer of data security.
- Security and Speed (RAID 10) - This mode offers the best of both worlds. Two mirrored arrays are striped together to maximize performance with a layer of data redundancy.
PCIe-Gen4 Hyper-Cooling Solution
The RocketAIC 7505HW is equipped with HighPoint's advanced PCIe Gen4 NVMe cooling solution, which mitigates the risk of thermal throttling by ensuring each hosted SSD consistently operates within its recommended temperature thresholds, even under sustained heavy I/O. The full-length anodized aluminum heat sink is equipped with an ultra-durable, low-decibel cooling fan and high-conductivity thermal padding. This innovative, efficient cooling system rapidly transfers waste heat away from critical componentry and NVMe media, without introducing unwanted distraction into your work environment.
Quick & Intuitive Management Suite
Though RocketAIC NVMe AIC SSDs are designed to work right out of the box, customers are free to install HighPoint's intuitive WebGUI management software, which includes their SHI solution, and provides simple and quick real-time temperature monitoring and endurance tracking. Quick, and easily mastered, the WebGUI works with all modern web browsers and can be used to manage, configure, and monitor every aspect of your RocketAIC NVMe drive with a few simple clicks.
