7.68TB U.2 NVMe 4.0 Enterprise Drive

The Solidigm D5-P5430 is a 7.68TB U.2 15mm enterprise SSD built for read-intensive data centre workloads. It connects via PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe and uses 192L QLC 3D NAND to deliver high capacity in a 2.5 inch form factor. Sequential reads reach 7000 MB/s while writes reach 3000 MB/s.

Read-intensive server and storage arrays

This drive suits servers handling large datasets, content delivery or analytics where read throughput and capacity matter most. The 971000 IOPS random read rating supports heavy parallel access. Builders needing high sustained write endurance or low-latency mixed workloads should look at drives with higher write IOPS and different NAND.

120 IOPS 4KB random write

The 4KB random write rating of 120 IOPS is the decisive figure for this model. It confirms the drive is optimised for read-heavy tasks rather than write-heavy transactional databases. If your workload demands strong random write performance, this specification indicates the drive is not the right choice.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the Solidigm D5-P5430 7.68TB U.2 drive and do I need a separate cable?

The single-pack drive is supplied without cables or brackets; a compatible U.2 backplane or adapter cable must be sourced separately for installation.

Should I choose the 7.68TB QLC model or a smaller capacity for write-heavy workloads?

The 7.68TB QLC version delivers 3000 MB/s sequential write and 120 IOPS random write; lower capacities in the same series typically sustain lower write throughput.

How does the 7000 MB/s sequential read figure translate when the drive is installed in a PCIe 4.0 x4 server slot?

In a PCIe 4.0 x4 slot the drive can reach its rated 7000 MB/s sequential read and 971000 IOPS random read, provided the platform supplies adequate cooling for the 15mm form factor.
