Intel P5600 Mainstream - SSD - 1.6 TB - hot-swap - 2.5\" - U.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 (NVMe) - for ThinkAgile MX3330-F Appliance, MX3330-H Appliance, MX3331-F Certified Node

The Intel SSD D7-P5600 Series Mainstream NVMe SSDs are advanced data center SSDs optimized for mixed read-write performance, endurance, and strong data protection for Lenovo servers. With a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, they are designed for greater performance and endurance in a cost-effective design, and to support a broader set of workloads. The Intel P5600 SSDs are based on Intel-developed controller, firmware, and 96-layer TLC Intel 3D NAND technology. Rigorous qualification and compatibility testing by Lenovo ensures a highly reliable SSD. Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) is PCIe high performance SSD technology that provides high I/O throughput and low latency. NVMe interfaces remove SAS/SATA bottlenecks and unleash all of the capabilities of contemporary NAND flash memory. Each NVMe PCI SSD has direct PCIe x4 connection, which provides at significantly greater bandwidth and lower latency than SATA/SAS-based SSD solutions. NVMe drives are also optimized for heavy multi-threaded workloads by using internal parallelism and many other improvements, such as enlarged I/O queues. With a PCIe 4.0 host interface, the P5600 drives offer significant increase in maximum throughputs supported. Sequential writes also increase.
