Intel Optane DC P4800X 375GB U.2 SSD

The Intel Optane DC P4800X is a 373GB internal solid-state drive built for enterprise workloads. It uses a 2.5-inch U.2 form factor and connects via a PCIe 3.0 NVMe interface. The drive targets servers and workstations that need consistent low-latency storage.

Sustained load behaviour

Under sustained operation the drive delivers up to 2400Mbps sequential read and up to 2000Mbps sequential write. Random performance reaches up to 550000IOPS for 4KB reads and up to 50000IOPS for 4KB writes. Active power draw is rated at 18 W within an operating range of 0 to 70 °C. MTBF is specified at 2000000 hours.

Installation and common issues

The 2.5-inch U.2 form factor fits standard hot-swap bays and backplanes that accept U.2 connectors. Installation requires a compatible U.2 port or an appropriate adapter cable. Common issues include insufficient airflow for the 18 W power envelope and using a backplane that does not support PCIe 3.0 NVMe signalling.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Optane DC P4800X draw under sustained load and what temperature range must the chassis handle?

The drive consumes 18 W when active and is rated for an operating temperature range of 0 to 70 °C, so plan airflow to keep the 2.5" bay within those limits during all-day workloads.

My motherboard has an M.2 slot — can I plug this U.2 2.5" SSD directly into it?

No, the SSDPE21K375GA uses a U.2 connector and requires a U.2 backplane or a PCIe 3.0 x4 adapter card; an M.2 slot will not accept the drive mechanically or electrically.

Will this PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive run at full speed on a platform that only supports PCIe 2.0?

It will operate but the link negotiates to PCIe 2.0 x4, halving the available bandwidth and reducing the 2400 Mbps sequential read and 550000 IOPS random read figures accordingly.
