Due to the main data center market, the XD7P series adopts the dedicated EDSFF E1.S specification, with three sizes of 9.5mm, 15mm and 25mm, in line with the OCP data center NVMe SSD v2.0 specification.

Kioxia has not announced the read and write speed and random IOPS performance of the XD7P series, but don’t worry about the lifespan.

It uses 3D TLC flash memory, and the DWPD reaches 1, which means that it supports erasing and writing once a day. The reliability is quite high.

The starting capacity of the XD7P series hard disk is 1920GB, and there are 3840GB and 7680GB options.

The 5-year warranty is based on 1 erasing and writing per day in 5 years. 7680GB means 14016PB of life.

It is still possible to write so much data. It’s really rare, don’t worry about writing to death.
