Product Guide (withdrawn product)

The ThinkSystem Toshiba CM5-V Mainstream NVMe solid-state drives (SSDs) in capacities from 800 GB to 6.4 TB are advanced data center SSDs optimized for mixed read-write performance, endurance, and strong data protection for Lenovo servers. They are engineered for greater performance and endurance in a cost- effective design, and to support a broader set of workloads. Suggested uses: Business Intelligence, OLTP, Software Defined Storage, and Virtualization.

Did you know?

NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) is a technology that overcomes SAS/SATA SSD performance limitations by optimizing hardware and software to take full advantage of flash technology. The use of NVMe drives means data is transferred more efficiently from the processor to the drives compared to the legacy Advance Host Controller Interface (AHCI) stack, thereby reducing latency and overhead. These SSDs connect directly to the processor via the PCIe bus, further reducing latency and TCO. Lenovo Mainstream SSDs are suitable for mixed read-write and general-purpose data center workloads, however their NVMe PCIe interface means the drives also offer high performance. Overall, these SSDs provide outstanding IOPS/watt and cost/IOPS for enterprise solutions.

Features

Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) is new PCIe 3.0 high performance SSD technology that provides high I/O throughput and low latency. NVMe interfaces remove SAS/SATA bottlenecks and unleash all of the capabilities of contemporary NAND flash memory. Each NVMe PCI SSD has direct PCIe 3.0 x4 connection, which provides at least 2x more bandwidth and 2x less latency than SATA/SAS-based SSD solutions. NVMe drives are also optimized for heavy multi- threaded workloads by using internal parallelism and many other improvements, such as enlarged I/O queues.
The ThinkSystem Toshiba CM5-V Mainstream NVMe SSDs have the following features:

  • 2.5-inch drive (U.2) or 3.5-inch drive bay form factor
  • Based on the Toshiba KCM51VUG drives
  • Third Generation BiCS 3D NAND 64 layer TLC
  • 3 drive-write-per-day (DWPD) SSD for mixed read-write workloads
  • Direct PCIe 3.0 x4 connection for each NVMe drive, resulting in up to 4 GBps overall throughput. Full Power-Loss-Protection and End-to-End Data Protection
  • Low power consumption (maximum 18 W)

Mainstream SSDs and Performance SSDs have similar read and write IOPS performance, but the key difference between them is their endurance (or lifetime) (that is, how long they can perform write operations because SSDs have a finite number of program/erase (P/E) cycles). Mainstream SSDs have a better cost/IOPS ratio but lower endurance compared to Performance SSDs. SSD write endurance is typically measured by the number of program/erase (P/E) cycles that the drive incurs over its lifetime, listed as the total bytes of written data (TBW) in the device specification. The TBW value assigned to a solid-state device is the total bytes of written data (based on the number of P/E cycles) that a drive can be guaranteed to complete (% of remaining P/E cycles = % of remaining TBW). Reaching this limit does not cause the drive to immediately fail. It simply denotes the maximum number of writes that can be guaranteed. A solid-state device will not fail upon reaching the specified TBW. At some point based on manufacturing variance margin, after surpassing the TBW value, the drive will reach the end-of-life point, at which the drive will go into a read-only mode. Because of such behavior by Mainstream solid- state drives, careful planning must be done to use them only in mixed read- write environments to ensure that the TBW of the drive will not be exceeded before the required life expectancy. For example, the 3.2 TB drive has an endurance of 17,520 TB of total bytes written (TBW). This means that for full operation over five years, write workload must be limited to no more than 9.6 TB of writes per day, which is equivalent to 3.0 full drive writes per day (DWPD). For the device to last three years, the drive write workload must be limited to no more than 16 TB of writes per day, which is equivalent to 5.0 full drive writes per day.

Storage controller support
NVMe PCIe SSDs require a NVMe drive backplane and some form of PCIe connection to processors. PCIe connections can take the form of either an adapter (PCIe Interposer or PCIe extender/switch adapter) or simply a cable that connects to an onboard NVMe connector. Consult the relevant server product guide for details about required components for NVMe drive support.

Warranty

The ThinkSystem Toshiba CM5-V Mainstream NVMe SSDs carry a one-year, customer- replaceable unit (CRU) limited warranty. When the SSDs are installed in a supported server, these drives assume the system’s base warranty and any warranty upgrades. Solid State Memory cells have an intrinsic, finite number of program/erase cycles that each cell can incur. As a result, each solid state device has a maximum amount of program/erase cycles to which it can be subjected. The warranty for Lenovo solid state drives (SSDs) is limited to drives that have not reached the maximum guaranteed number of program/erase cycles, as documented in the Official Published Specifications for the SSD product. A drive that reaches this limit may fail to operate according to its Specifications.
