Intel® SSDs Based on EDSFF*
Built with Purpose,
Designed for Performance.
Intel® Data Center SSDs based on EDSFF*; the perfect t
Break free from the limitations of legacy data center SSD form factors with the
revolutionary new E1.L and E1.S Intel® SSDs based on EDSFF*. Featuring a common
connector and pinout, the array of exible, future-ready features enable a broad
range of interoperable designs. Purpose-built to meet your toughest storage
challenges and to always be the perfect t.
Simply Revolutionary
Designed from the ground up, these revolutionary new EDSFF-based SSDs deliver
exible building blocks for scalable solutions, increased operational eciency at
scale and space-ecient capacity consolidating the storage footprint.
EDSFF was created to limit storage form factor proliferation by dening
revolutionary industry standard form factors. This was driven by three guiding
principles: enable scale, optimize total cost of ownership, and enable a dynamic
range of solutions.
These principles were driven by key data center storage challenges, as surveyed
from top IT decision makers: ability to scale capacity to support data and application
growth, driving down the cost of storage—lowering operating and capital
expenditures, while increasing storage agility, and to deliver required application
performance without compromises. With a healthy and growing ecosystem, Intel
supports EDSFF as the data center form factor standard of the future.
Now You Have Options
The E1.L and E1.S give you options for a variety of data center needs.
E1.L is a purpose-built form factor optimized for disaggregated systems. Providing
high per server capacity, enabling up to 32 drives per rack unit for massive storage
power. In addition to capacity, this form factor provides key features of thermal
eciency, full serviceability, scalability, and future ready performance.
E1.S provides the best of U.2 and M.2. E1.S in a scalable, exible, power, and
thermally ecient SSD building block. This form factor was designed for highvolume hyperscale, and allows system exibility, increased storage density, modular
scaling, improved serviceability, and more ecient cooling optimized for 1U servers.

Intentional Design
The inspiration for EDSFF, the
Intel® SSD DC P4500 in the
“ruler” form factor won an
International Design Excellence
Award (IDEA) in 2019. This
award is a benchmark of design
and positions Intel® SSDs based
on EDSFF to become an icon
in the storage industry. A shift
toward intentional industrial
design in the storage industry,
Intel® SSDs based on EDSFF
show how Intel is reimagining
data center storage for ash.
Optimized Capacity
EDSFF drives were designed to optimize capacity per drive. With 36 media sites on
the E1.L this drive can scale to higher capacities without expensive and complex
die stacking. The Intel® E1.L will scale up to 30.72TB of capacity in 2019.
30.72TB E1.L form factor, you will be able to reach nearly 1PB of storage in 1U.

Space Isn’t All it Saves
E1.L provides programmable LEDs to quickly locate failed drives, oine drives,
and un-populated slots. With a carrier-less design and an integrated latch, the E1.L
removes the need for drive carriers. Advanced enclosure management with slot level
power control enables single drive isolation. The E1.L is up to 2 times more thermally
