Solidigm has just unveiled the world's highest capacity PCIe SSD with an untouchable 122TB of storage capacity, with the new data center SSD targeting AI-focused workloads. Check it out:
The new Solidigm D5-P5336 data center SSD doubles the space of Solidigm's earlier 61.44TB version of the drive, and is the world's first SSD with unlimited Random Writes endurance for 5 years, which makes it the perfect SSD solution for AI and data-intensive workloads.
Greg Matson, Senior Vice President of Strategic Planning and Marketing at Solidigm, explains: "Data center architects are scrambling to solve their power and space efficiency needs, and they can help address these issues with Solidigm's 122TB D5-P5336 that is designed to make every watt and square inch count. This massive capacity SSD is a game-changer - using far fewer watts per terabyte and freeing up valuable energy for other data center and edge power priorities".
Ultra-High Density SSDs Improving Power and Space Equation
By the numbers, the 122TB D5-P5336 drive:
- Consumes up to 84 percent less storage power in network-attached storage (NAS) deployments versus legacy hybrid hard-disk drive (HDD) + TLC (triple-level cell) solutions;
- Improves power density at the edge with 3.4X more terabytes per watt versus 30TB TLC;
- Enables up to 4 petabytes of storage per one rack unit; and
- Is designed by the pioneers of QLC, so can be deployed with confidence.
The new Solidigm drives also store more data in a smaller footprint, enabling more efficient and more scalable data center and edge designs that:
- Achieve up to a 4:1 NAS footprint reduction versus legacy HDD + TLC solutions; and
- Store 4x more data in space-constrained edge installations versus 30TB TLC.
Travis Vigil, senior vice president, ISG Product Management, Dell Technologies, added: "The AI opportunity does not come without challenges, and organizations today are making unprecedented infrastructure power and space decisions. Dell Technologies believes that higher density provides the path to maximizing storage energy efficiency while minimizing data center footprint. As we strive towards density in our own solutions, we look forward to continued storage innovations like Solidigm's new 122TB D5-P5336 solid-state drive".
