  • 5-inch 15 mm U.2/U.3 form factor fits standard bays

Built for 24x7 data-centre workloads

The Kioxia CD8-V is a mixed-use internal SSD designed for scale-out and cloud environments. Its single-port architecture targets big data, online transaction processing and virtualisation clusters that demand consistent throughput around the clock.

3.2 TB capacity with 3 DWPD endurance

The drive delivers up to 1,250K random read IOPS and 380K random write IOPS over a PCIe 4.0 x4 link. Rated at 3 Drive Writes Per Day, it sustains heavy mixed workloads before wear becomes a planning concern.

2.5-inch 15 mm U.2/U.3 form factor

The 15 mm z-height fits standard 2.5-inch hot-swap bays and backplanes that accept U.2 or U.3 connectors. Power-loss protection and end-to-end data correction reduce the need for external safeguards in dense deployments.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5 inch 15mm U.2 U.3 drive fit in a legacy 7mm bay?

The drive is 15mm thick so it needs a 15mm bay or a 2.5 inch tray that accepts 15mm drives; a standard 7mm laptop bay will not accommodate it.

How can I confirm the PCIe 4.0 x4 link is active after installation?

In the OS device manager or a tool such as nvme-cli check that the link speed reads 16 GT/s and the link width reads x4; those values show the drive is running at PCIe 4.0 x4.

Does the retail package include a U.2 to U.3 adapter cable or a heatsink?

The drive ships as the bare 2.5 inch U.2 U.3 unit only; any adapter cable, heatsink or mounting bracket must be purchased separately.
