Enterprise SSD for read-intensive workloads

The Solidigm D5-P5430 is a 3.84TB enterprise solid-state drive built on 192-layer QLC 3D NAND. It uses an E3.S 7.5mm form factor and connects through a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface. The drive targets data-centre and server deployments that prioritise high-capacity sequential reads over write endurance.

Check E3.S slot and power budget

Verify that your chassis or server backplane accepts an E3.S 7.5mm module and can deliver up to 13W active power through the PCIe slot. The drive operates between 0°C and 70°C, so confirm airflow meets that range. Ensure the system firmware supports Opal security if hardware encryption is required.

Fits high-density server builds

The compact E3.S 7.5mm design lets you populate dense storage arrays without the height of traditional U.2 or U.3 drives. PCIe 4.0 x4 provides up to 5200 MBps sequential read bandwidth for fast data ingest. Low 0.55 DWPD endurance suits read-heavy workloads such as content delivery or analytics, freeing write cycles for other tiers.

Questions about this item

Does the D5-P5430 E3.S 7.5mm drive ship with a heatsink or mounting bracket?

The drive is supplied as a bare E3.S 7.5mm module. Any heatsink, carrier or mounting bracket required by your server chassis must be sourced separately.

When should I choose the 3.84TB QLC model over a smaller TLC alternative?

Select this 3.84TB QLC drive when you need maximum read capacity per watt for sequential workloads and can accept 0.55 DWPD endurance.

What sustained write speed can I expect from the 5200 MBps sequential read rating in a live server?

The 5200 MBps figure is a peak sequential read; sustained writes are rated at 900 MBps, with 54,500 random write IOPS at queue depth 256.
