Intel DC P4500 4TB PCIe Internal SSD SSDPERKX040T701

SKU CH-YA4G-GQA73 MPN SSDPERKX040T701

A 4 TB PCI Express 3.1 x4 internal SSD delivering up to 3.22 GB/s reads and 1.86 GB/s writes with 256-bit encryption and 14 W power draw

  • 4 TB capacity supports large cloud workloads
  • 22 GB/s max read speeds up data access
  • 86 GB/s max write speeds accelerate ingest
  • 256-bit encryption protects stored data
  • 14 W operating power limits energy draw

4 TB PCIe 3.1 x4 SSD for cloud workloads

The Intel DC P4500 4TB drive uses a PCI Express 3.1 x4 interface and 3D NAND to serve read-heavy cloud and data-centre workloads. Sequential reads reach 3.22 GB/s while writes hit 1.86 GB/s. Hardware 256-bit encryption protects data at rest.

Thermals and power in typical operation

The drive draws 14 W during normal operation with no moving parts to generate acoustic noise. Passive cooling in a server chassis is sufficient for sustained throughput. Power consumption stays flat across mixed read and write patterns.

Build integration and constraints

The half-height add-in card fits a standard PCIe slot and leaves drive bays free for additional capacity. Weight is 7.94 oz so no extra bracket reinforcement is required. Buyers needing hot-plug carrier support or U.2 backplane mounting should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Intel DC P4500 4TB PCIe SSD in a PCI Express 3.1 x4 slot and what step is often missed?

Insert the drive into a compatible PCI Express 3.1 x4 slot, secure it with the retention screw, then enable the PCIe lane in the system BIOS so the operating system can detect the 4 TB volume.

What maintenance or replacement will the Intel DC P4500 4TB SSD need during its service life?

The drive has no user-serviceable parts; monitor SMART health attributes and replace the unit if the media-wear indicator reaches its threshold or if uncorrectable errors appear.

What limit appears first on the Intel DC P4500 4TB SSD under sustained heavy writes?

Continuous writes at the maximum 1.86 GB/s rate will hit the 14 W power envelope, causing thermal throttling that reduces throughput until the controller temperature drops.
