SSD Kioxia CD8P-V 6.4 TB 2.5 pulgadas PCIe 5.0 NVMe BiCS FLASH TLC para servidor/estación de trabajo

SSD Kioxia CD8P-V 6.4 TB 2.5" PCIe 5.0 NVMe BiCS FLASH TLC is a data center mixed-use NVMe SSD in a 2.5-inch, 15 mm form factor. It uses PCIe 5.0 (x4) interface and KIOXIA BiCS FLASH generation 5 TLC memory to provide high-capacity, low-latency block storage intended for servers and workstations handling scale-out and cloud workloads such as databases, virtualization and large-scale data processing.

Advantages

The drive delivers up to 2,000K IOPS random read performance and up to 400K IOPS random write, and offers a substantial increase in sequential read throughput compared with previous PCIe 4.0 generation. With 3 DWPD endurance and capacities up to 12.8 TB in the series, the SSD is designed for consistent 24x7 operation, power-loss protection and end-to-end data correction for improved reliability in hyperscale environments.

Suitable for

• Database servers and online transaction processing (OLTP)
• Virtualization and VDI hosts
• Caching and high-performance tiered storage
• Big data, analytics and IoT scale-out storage

When it may not be suitable

This enterprise-class drive is optimized for data center workloads and high-density deployments; it may be excessive for typical consumer or desktop use where SATA or lower-end NVMe drives would be more cost-effective. It also requires a PCIe 5.0-capable host to reach peak performance, so systems limited to PCIe 3.0/4.0 will see reduced bandwidth.

Key specifications

• Form factor: 2.5-inch, 15 mm thickness
• Interface: PCIe 5.0 (x4), NVMe 2.0 compliant
• Capacity: 6.4 TB (this model); series up to 12.8 TB
• Flash memory: KIOXIA BiCS FLASH generation 5 TLC
• Endurance: 3 DWPD
• Random performance (max): up to 2,000K IOPS read / 400K IOPS write
• Single-port design optimized for data center workloads
• Power-loss protection and end-to-end data correction
• Designed for high-density, 24x7 operation

How to use

Install the SSD into a compatible 2.5" drive bay or tray in a server or workstation with a PCIe 5.0-capable backplane or controller. Ensure firmware and host drivers support NVMe 2.0 and that the operating system is configured for enterprise storage (appropriate partitioning, alignment and device scheduler settings). Use the drive for block-storage workloads such as databases, virtual machine storage or caching tiers; monitor endurance and health metrics using vendor management tools.

What to consider before purchase

• Host interface: require PCIe 5.0 (x4) to achieve peak performance; lower PCIe versions reduce throughput
• Form factor: 2.5" 15 mm—verify drive bay or tray clearance
• Endurance and workload profile: 3 DWPD—confirm suitability for your write intensity
• Compatibility: check server firmware and NVMe driver support

Recommendations

For best results, deploy the SSD in servers with PCIe 5.0 support, enable vendor monitoring utilities for SMART and telemetry, and place the drive in appropriate RAID or software-defined storage configurations depending on redundancy and performance needs.
