“Hyperscale needs of density, power, performance and serviceability are driving PCIe 5.0 E1.S as a form factor, and the OCP Datacenter NVMe SSD specification V2.0 for the data center,” said Ross Stenfort, hardware storage engineer, Meta. “The KIOXIA XD7P Series SSD supports these storage technologies, to enable the next generation of hyperscale needs.”
XD7P Series Data Center NVMe SSDs deliver overall improved performance, achieving nearly 1.5 to 2X the sequential write performance and random read/write performance, when compared to their predecessors. These drives are designed to PCIe 4.0 and NVMe 2.0 specification, and PCIe 5.0 with maximum interface speed of 32 GT/s per lane is under development. Hence, XD7P will be released initially as PCIe 4.0 SSDs. PCIe 5.0 SSDs will be released based on customer demand.
Based on KIOXIA’s 5th generation BiCS FLASH 3D flash memory technology, the XD7P Series utilizes a proprietary KIOXIA controller, which can be adapted to customer needs. The E1.S form factor will be available in heights of 9.5mm, 15mm and 25mm with heat sink options. Capacities will be available up to 7.68 TB with 1 DWPD endurance. TCG Opal SSC SED security options will also be offered[1].
“Next Generation cloud and edge platforms need to tackle the challenges arising from thermal and signal integrity requirements,” said Frederik Haak, Senior Manager SSD Marketing, KIOXIA Europe GmbH. “With the XD7P Series, KIOXIA’s new generation of E1.S form factored Data Center PCIe and NVMe SSD offers an excellent choice for cloud and system architects with focus on future proof platform design.”
