About the SK Hynix Gold S31 1TB 2.5-inch SATA SSD

The SK Hynix Gold S31 1TB (SHGS31-1000GU-2) is a 2.5-inch SATA III solid-state drive built on SK Hynix's proprietary 128-layer 3D NAND TLC flash architecture. Engineered for sustained read and write throughput, the drive delivers sequential read speeds up to 560 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 525 MB/s, positioning it as a capable storage upgrade for compute nodes, workstations, and edge deployments where the SATA interface remains the connectivity standard. The in-house controller and NAND pairing ensures tightly optimized firmware behavior, contributing to consistent latency and predictable I/O performance across mixed workload profiles.

The Gold S31 is designed for environments demanding high endurance and long-term data integrity. With a rated endurance of 500 TBW (terabytes written) at the 1TB capacity point and support for AES-256 hardware encryption, the drive addresses both durability requirements and data-at-rest security mandates common in enterprise and regulated-industry deployments. The 2.5-inch, 7mm z-height form factor ensures broad compatibility across rack servers, dense storage enclosures, and legacy infrastructure refresh scenarios without mechanical adapter requirements.

Available through Omnixon Global, the SK Hynix Gold S31 1TB serves procurement teams across the UAE, GCC, EMEA, and APAC regions seeking a reliable, factory-supported SATA SSD for datacenter storage tiers, AI inference edge nodes, and general enterprise compute refresh programs. Its combination of SK Hynix first-party NAND, hardware-level encryption, and proven 2.5-inch SATA compatibility makes it a straightforward, low-risk selection for volume enterprise storage deployments.

Ideal for

  • Boot drive and OS volume replacement in rack-mounted servers during datacenter infrastructure refresh cycles
  • Secondary storage tier in AI inference edge appliances requiring consistent read throughput without NVMe power overhead
  • High-density workstation and thin-client deployments in enterprise VDI environments demanding reliable sequential I/O
  • Secure storage in compliance-sensitive environments leveraging the onboard AES-256 hardware encryption capability
  • Caching and scratch-disk tier in media processing or data pipeline nodes where sustained write endurance is a procurement criterion
  • Legacy enterprise system modernization where existing SATA III backplanes preclude NVMe adoption but SSD-class performance is required

Frequently Asked Questions about SK Hynix Gold S31 1TB 2.5-inch SATA SSD

What workloads is the SK Hynix Gold S31 1TB 2.5-inch SATA SSD designed for?

Enterprise mixed-use and read-intensive workloads — including transactional databases, AI inference data, virtualisation, hyperconverged storage, and analytics. Endurance is rated for sustained 24/7 operation, not consumer-style burst use.

Will this SSD work in my Dell / HPE / Lenovo server?

Most enterprise SSDs ship in vendor-branded variants tied to a server QVL. Share your server model and we will quote the correctly-branded SKU (Dell-genuine, HPE-genuine, Lenovo-genuine) so support and firmware update tooling work without complaints.

Do you provide support support locally?

Yes. All units are sourced through distribution, so support registers cleanly with the manufacturer (Samsung / Kioxia / Solidigm / Micron / WD / Seagate) and DOA replacement is handled through our Dubai operations within 5 business days for UAE/GCC.

How do I get a quote for a bulk order?

Use the RFQ form on this page with your quantity and destination. For larger and project-scale orders we engage the vendor directly to prepare a tailored quote, and our pre-sales team follows up with a vendor-confirmed quote.
