Intel® QLC Technology and PCIe* Performance

Designed to deliver massive, aordable capacities with PCIe* performance, the Intel® SSD
D5-P4326 consolidates storage footprints and reduces operational cost vs. legacy storage.

The Intel® SSD D5-P4326 oers Intel® QLC technology, PCIe* performance and the
exibility to scale solutions, maximize capacity, and improve operational eciency at
scale. In addition to a U.2 form factor, the Intel SSD D5-P4326 is also the industry’s
rst SSD in the innovative E1.L form factor to oer Intel® QLC technology based on
EDSFF*.

The Intel® SSD D5-P4326 includes Intel® QLC’s 33% more bits per cell than prior
generation Intel® 3D NAND drives,1 consolidating the data center storage footprint up
to 20x.2 In addition to capacity, replacing HDDs with Intel® QLC SSDs reduces power,
cooling and drive replacement costs.3 Thanks to the PCIe-based design, performance
also gets a boost over SATA drives, allowing greater usable capacity meeting IOPS/TB
requirements.4

What is EDSFF?

The Enterprise and Datacenter
SSD Form Factor, created by a
workgroup of 15 industry leaders
to address data center storage
concerns and dene industry
standard form factors, driven by
three guiding principles:

• enable scale

• optimize total cost of

ownership

• enable dynamic range of
solutions

Store More: Large Capacity in a Small Space

The D5-P4326 with Intel® QLC technology was designed to optimize per drive
capacity with initial capacity at 15.36TB and future scaling to 30.72TB later in 2019.
And, when delivered on the rst-in-industry E1.L form factor, the D5-P4326 takes
storage eciency to another level with initial chassis designs supporting up to 32
drives in a 1U server. The combination of per drive and per rack capacity eciency
provides up to 10x storage consolidation compared to 8TB U.2 SSDs and up to 20x
consolidation compared to 4TB HDDs. In fact, with E1.L-based chassis designs up to
36 drives possible, the D5-P4326 can scale to 1PB in 1U.

Save More: Innovations Delivering Operational Eciency

The D5-P4326 is a cost optimized addition to Intel’s QLC family. This aordability
makes the D5-4326 ideally suited to displace hard discs in all-HDD arrays and hybrid
arrays. In addition to storage consolidation noted in the previous section, data centers
choosing to displace their HDDs can lower power cost, reduce cooling cost and
signicantly save on drive replacement cost. When delivered on the operationally
ecient E1.L form factor, data centers can realize even more cooling savings with
the thermally optimized design and improve manageability and serviceability at
scale with capabilities such as LED status lights, drive specic power cycling and
opportunities to reduce component count.

Do More: PCIe Accelerates Workloads at Large Capacities

The IOPS of a drive is a xed number meaning that as a drives capacity gets larger
IOPS/TB get smaller. This can be problematic with certain storage workloads
that have minimum IOPS/TB requirements. The performance advantage of the
PCIe interface vs. SATA interface means IOPS/TB remain suciently high even as
capacities scale.
