Solidigm D7-P5520 7.68TB U.2 SSD

The Solidigm D7-P5520 is a 7.68TB enterprise solid-state drive built for data-centre servers and high-density storage arrays. It uses a U.2 15mm form factor with a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface and 144L TLC 3D NAND. Sequential reads reach 7100 MBps and writes reach 4200 MBps, with random performance of 1100000 read IOPS and 220000 write IOPS. Endurance is rated at 14.0 PBW and MTBF at 2000000 hours.

Compatibility check before ordering

Verify that your server or storage chassis accepts a U.2 15mm drive and provides a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 connection to the backplane or adapter. Confirm the platform supplies up to 18W active power and 5W idle power within its thermal design. The drive includes FIPS security features; ensure your management software supports them if encryption compliance is required. Physical shock tolerance is 1000 G at .5 msec and vibration tolerance is 2.17 GRMS operating.

Suited for read-heavy workloads.

This drive suits read-intensive applications such as content delivery, virtualisation boot volumes and analytics repositories where high random-read IOPS and large capacity matter. The 14.0 PBW endurance rating limits suitability for sustained heavy-write workloads like continuous database logging or high-frequency checkpointing. Buyers needing higher write endurance or a different form factor such as E1.S should evaluate alternative enterprise models.
