Product Overview
The Lenovo 3.5in U.2 P5520 1.92TB NVMe SSD is engineered for data-intensive enterprise environments requiring ultra-fast data access and dependability. Featuring a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface and NVMe protocol, this solid-state drive ensures high throughput with up to 5.3 GBps sequential read and 1.9 GBps sequential write speeds. Its use of advanced 3D TLC NAND flash boosts performance and endurance, supporting high-speed workloads while maintaining longevity.
Optimized for consistent and efficient I/O, the P5520 provides up to 700,000 IOPS (4KB random read) and 114,000 IOPS (4KB random write). With a power consumption of just 15W during both active read and write, this drive balances performance and efficiency. It is also SMART enabled for proactive health monitoring.
Backed by a one-year warranty, a 2 million-hour MTBF, and an endurance rating of 3.5PB total bytes written, the drive is ideal for applications such as virtualization, databases, and OLTP workloads. Note: installation requires compatible NVMe backplane or PCIe connection hardware.
