KCD8XRUG3T84 Kioxia CD8 3.84TB PCIe 4.0 2.5" Server SSD

High-Performance 2.5in U.2 NVMe Datacenter SSD featuring PCIe Gen4 throughput with the KCD8XRUG3T84

KCD8XRUG3T84 is a Kioxia CD8 Series enterprise SSD built for PCIe Gen4 NVMe server storage, targeting read-intensive OLTP and virtualization datastores that demand consistent low latency. The 2.5in U.2 form factor integrates cleanly into standard hot-swap backplanes, enabling predictable serviceability in dense rack platforms while sustaining up to 7,200 MB/s sequential read performance.

Architecturally, KCD8XRUG3T84 leverages 3D TLC NAND with a controller and firmware stack tuned for mixed queue depth behavior: high 4K read IOPS for VM consolidation and catalog-heavy workloads, with controlled write amplification aligned to 1 DWPD endurance. PCIe Gen4 provides headroom for modern CPU platforms and reduces storage bottlenecks across PCIe fabrics and RAID/HBA pass-through designs. The 3.84TB capacity supports fast-tier caching, content delivery, and resilient boot/application volumes, while power characteristics help maintain thermal margins in 24/7 duty cycles.

Why Choose the KCD8XRUG3T84?

KCD8XRUG3T84 delivers a practical density-to-performance profile for enterprise nodes where read throughput and predictable latency matter more than heavy write endurance. It supports scalable deployment across hypervisor clusters and storage tiers, with reliability features that reduce operational risk and simplify lifecycle management in standardized U.2 NVMe infrastructures.

Kioxia designs the CD8 platform with a focus on datacenter reliability, firmware consistency, and alignment with modern server qualification processes. Features such as PLP, Sanitize Instant Erase, and OCP 2.0 support operational controls required in regulated environments, while long-life engineering targets continuous service in multi-tenant racks.

Key Applications:

• Read-intensive OLTP databases
• Virtualization and VDI datastores
• Content delivery and edge caching
• Server boot and application volumes
• Fast tier for analytics ingest
