SSDPE7KX040T701 Intel DC P4000 4TB PCIe Gen 3 2.5" Server SSD

High-Performance 2.5-inch U.2 NVMe Enterprise SSD featuring read-optimized data center caching with the SSDPE7KX040T701

The SSDPE7KX040T701 is an Intel Data Center NVMe SSD engineered for PCIe Gen3 U.2 backplanes where predictable latency and fast read response matter more than peak write throughput. Deployed behind modern multi-core CPU platforms in virtualized clusters, it accelerates boot storms, read-heavy databases, and cache tiers by keeping hot data close to compute while maintaining consistent QoS under consolidation.

Built on 4TB TLC NAND in a 7mm 2.5-inch U.2 form factor, the SSDPE7KX040T701 integrates cleanly into dense 1U/2U storage nodes and GPU-ready servers that reserve PCIe lanes for accelerators and NICs. Its sequential performance up to 3,200 MB/s read and 900 MB/s write, plus up to 361K/46.7K 4K read/write IOPS, aligns with content delivery and virtualization caching patterns. With 0.685 DWPD for 5 years and 5,000 TBW, the SSDPE7KX040T701 supports mixed application storage where read acceleration is the architectural objective rather than sustained heavy writes.

Why Choose the SSDPE7KX040T701?

The SSDPE7KX040T701 delivers a strong density-to-performance ratio for read-intensive tiers, enabling more VMs, faster service restarts, and higher cache hit rates without re-architecting to PCIe Gen4. Enterprise features such as SED with 256-bit AES, End-to-End Data Protection, and Power Loss Protection support scalable deployment in shared infrastructure where data integrity and operational consistency are mandatory.

Intel designs the DC P4000 platform for data center stability, emphasizing controlled thermals, deterministic behavior, and qualification for server-class U.2 ecosystems. With 2.0M hours MTBF and power targets of 5W idle and 12.5W active, it aligns with rack-level efficiency and lifecycle management expectations.

Key Applications:

• Server boot and VDI boot storm mitigation
• Content delivery caching tiers
• Virtualization and cloud infrastructure caching
• Database read acceleration
• Mixed application storage with read bias
