Enterprise capacity and form factor

The Solidigm D5-P5316 delivers 15.36TB in an E1.L 9.5mm module built for dense server deployments. It targets data-centre operators who need high-capacity flash in a slim, hot-pluggable tray without sacrificing PCIe 4.0 x4 bandwidth.

Build integration and system impact

The drive slots into an EDSFF E1.L bay and connects through a PCIe 4.0 x4 link, so the chassis must provide that connector and backplane support. Its 5W idle and 25W active draw leave thermal headroom for packed shelves, while Opal encryption secures data at rest without a separate controller.

Workload headroom and limits

Sequential reads reach 7000 MBps and writes 3200 MBps, with 800000 IOPS on 4K random reads. Endurance is rated at 10.78PBW for 64K random and 51.85PBW for 64K sequential patterns. Workloads demanding higher write IOPS or sustained writes beyond those ratings will exhaust the 144L QLC NAND reserve faster.

Questions about this item

What is the endurance limit for sustained 64K random writes on this 15.36TB drive?

The drive is rated for 10.78PBW of 64K random writes, after which the QLC NAND may no longer guarantee data integrity.

What are the active power draw and maximum operating temperature when the SSD runs continuously?

Active power consumption is 25W and the operating temperature range tops out at 70°C.

What drive bay and PCIe slot does the E1.L 9.5mm form factor require?

It needs an E1.L 9.5mm bay wired for PCI-Express 4.0 x4 signalling.
