C9400-SSD-240GB is the smallest of the three Catalyst 9400 supervisor M2 SATA modules and differs from C9400-SSD-480GB and C9400-SSD-960GB only in capacity: the comparison table shows the same M2 SATA interface, 22x88mm card size, EXT4 default file system and disk0: mount on all three. When 240GB of local supervisor storage is too small for container-based application hosting, C9400-SSD-480GB doubles it. C9400-SSD-960GB is the largest step, matching the 960 GB SSD capacity that Cisco lists for every Catalyst 9400 supervisor. None of the three changes switching ports, PoE or chassis slots.
Ordering Checklist
- Supervisor hosts: Install the module in a Catalyst 9400 supervisor C9400-SUP-1, C9400-SUP-1XL, C9400-SUP-1XL-Y, C9400X-SUP-2 or C9400X-SUP-2XL in a C9404R, C9407R or C9410R chassis. It is supervisor storage, not a line card, chassis or power option.
