3.84TB U.2 NVMe SSD

This Intel D7-P5520 drive delivers 3.84TB of capacity in a 2.5" U.2 form factor. It uses triple-level cell memory and a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 interface with NVMe protocol. Designed for internal server and storage arrays.

Suited for read-intensive enterprise workloads

The drive targets email, business processing, transaction processing and decision-support applications. It also fits SAN and NAS deployments as well as internet and e-commerce platforms. Write-heavy or mixed-use scenarios may require a different endurance class.

PCI-Express 3.0 x4 interface

The SSD connects through a U.2 backplane using a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 link. Sequential reads reach up to 6700 MBps and sequential writes up to 3600 MBps. Random 4KB reads hit 100000 IOPS while writes reach 20000 IOPS.

Questions about this item

How is the 2.5" U.2 drive installed in a server and what step is often missed?

Insert the drive into a U.2 backplane or hot-swap bay until the connector seats, then secure it with the retention latch; the step often missed is fully engaging the latch so the PCIe 3.0 x4 link trains at full speed.

What maintenance or replacement will the 3.84TB TLC SSD need over its service life?

No scheduled maintenance is required; the drive is rated for 2,000,000 hours MTBF, so replacement is only needed if SMART media or critical warning thresholds are reached.

What limit appears first on the PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD during sustained heavy writes?

The sequential write ceiling of 3,600 MBps is reached before the 20,000 random write IOPS limit under continuous high-queue-depth workloads.
