About the BOSS-N1

The Dell BOSS-N1 is a boot optimized storage subsystem that provides hardware RAID 1 for two M.2 NVMe SSDs that Dell names in the storage controller section of the PowerEdge R360, R670, R6715, R6725, R770, R7715, R7725, T160, T360, XR5610, XR7620 spec sheets. The spec sheets give the option name only, not a Dell SKU, so this file uses the option name as its identifier. A Dell SKU, where one exists, shows up in the configurator and on the service tag of an individual server, and should be added here when it has been read from a Dell page. Treat the page as a listing of where Dell names the part, not as a full specification.

Compatibility

Dell names the BOSS-N1 in the spec sheets for the PowerEdge R360, R670, R6715, R6725, R770, R7715, R7725, T160, T360, XR5610, XR7620. Those are the only systems this page lists. The spec sheets are written for the whole platform, so a given server may ship with only some of the listed controllers, and form factor variants such as front, adapter or integrated need to be checked in the configurator. Do not read the listing as a statement for other PowerEdge models of the same generation.
