Solidigm Enterprise SSDs
Solidigm enterprise SSDs span dense QLC capacity drives, mainstream read-intensive flash, PCIe Gen5 TLC performance and ultra-endurance SLC storage.
Use the family table to choose by workload first. Capacity, form factor and interface determine whether a drive can be installed; DWPD and total writes determine whether it can survive the job.
| Family | Class | NAND | Interface | Capacities | Endurance | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| D5-P5336 | PCIe 4.0 capacity SSD | 192-layer QLC 3D NAND | PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 | 7.68, 15.36, 30.72, 61.44 and 122.88TB | 0.42 to 0.60 DWPD over five years; 5.9 to 134.3 PBW by capacity | Read-intensive data lakes, object storage, CDN, scale-out storage and large AI datasets |
| D5-P5430 | PCIe 4.0 mainstream SSD | 192-layer QLC 3D NAND | PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.4c | 3.84, 7.68, 15.36 and 30.72TB; E1.S options stop at 15.36TB | Up to 0.58 DWPD and 32 PBW over five years, capacity dependent | Mainstream read-intensive enterprise storage, virtualization, content delivery and data analytics |
| D7-PS1010 | PCIe 5.0 read-intensive SSD | 176-layer TLC 3D NAND | PCIe 5.0 x4, NVMe | 1.92, 3.84, 7.68 and 15.36TB | 1 DWPD over five years; up to 28 PBW by capacity | Read-intensive databases, cloud services, inference, analytics and general enterprise NVMe |
| D7-PS1030 | PCIe 5.0 mixed-use SSD | 176-layer TLC 3D NAND | PCIe 5.0 x4, NVMe | 1.6, 3.2, 6.4 and 12.8TB | 3 DWPD over five years; up to 70 PBW by capacity | Write-heavy databases, logging, caching, metadata and high-write AI infrastructure |

How to choose a Solidigm enterprise SSD
Start with the write profile rather than headline sequential speed. Capacity SSDs are designed to store much more data per device, while mixed-use and high-endurance models reserve more NAND and controller resources for sustained writes.
Next verify form factor, PCIe generation, cooling, hot-plug support and firmware qualification in the target server. A U.2 drive and an E3.S drive can share NVMe protocol while requiring different bays, backplanes and mechanical retention.
Capacity flash and performance flash solve different problems
D5-P5336 and D5-P5430 use QLC NAND to optimize density and read economics. They fit large datasets, object stores, content repositories and other workloads where reads dominate writes.
D7-PS1010 and D7-PS1030 use TLC NAND and PCIe Gen5. PS1030 trades some usable capacity per device for three-drive-writes-per-day endurance, making it the stronger choice when write amplification, logs, database changes or cache churn are material.
Procurement and platform checks
Match the complete ordering code, capacity and form factor. Do not buy from a model-family name alone, because a family can contain U.2, E1.S, E1.L and E3.S options that are not mechanically interchangeable.
For production fleets, confirm firmware approval, namespace and sector settings, power-loss protection behavior, cooling limits and vendor support before standardizing. Current public prices are shown only for exact model matches.
Frequently asked questions
Which Solidigm SSD has the highest capacity?
D5-P5336 reaches 122.88TB in the current Solidigm family specifications.
Which Solidigm SSD is intended for higher write endurance?
D7-PS1030 is the 3 DWPD PCIe Gen5 mixed-use option. D7-P5810 targets much more write-intensive roles at up to 50 DWPD but in far smaller capacities.
Are all Solidigm enterprise SSDs U.2?
No. Form-factor options include U.2, E3.S, E1.S and E1.L depending on the family and capacity.
