Lenovo Enterprise Capacity Solid State Drives
Product Guide (withdrawn product)
Enterprise Capacity solid-state drives (SSDs) from Lenovo provide high-
performance, reliable storage solutions for high-capacity enterprise
applications. This new drive type supports highly demanding write workloads
and uses a cost-effective 6 Gbps SAS interface and MLC NAND technology.
Designed for dense storage, this drive features all of the capacity and
performance that is needed to replace large numbers of 15K rpm and 10K rpm
spinning disks, and consolidate storage into tightly packed server
configurations.
The Enterprise Capacity SSD, as shown in Figure 1, is designed to be the
primary storage device for readintensive applications, such as data
warehousing, media streaming, web servers, video on demand (VOD), and web-
based applications. Users also have the flexibility to use this drive for more
write intensive applications because the drive can handle an average daily
write workload of nearly 2 TB, which is the equivalent of a 200 GB SSD rated
to 10 drive writes per day (DWPD).

Did you know?
Enterprise Capacity SSDs are a new category of cost-effective high-capacity
SSDs where it makes sense to store all of your data on the SSDs, and not use
the SSDs only for caching or indexes.
Enterprise Capacity SSDs have numerous data integrity features, including
circuitry that is designed to ensure that data in transit is committed to
flash if there is a power failure, temperature management that levels out
heat generation thereby preventing overheating failures, and wear leveling
capabilities that ensure a longer life of the SSD.

Part number information
The ordering part number and feature code information is listed in Table 1.
Withdrawn: All drives listed here are now withdrawn from marketing
Table 1. Ordering part numbers and feature codes
Part number | Feature code | Description |
---|---|---|
00NA671 | ASW6 | 3.84 TB 6Gb SAS Enterprise Capacity G3HS MLC SSD |
01GR871 | AUBS | 3.84TB 6Gb SAS 3.5″ Enterprise Capacity HS MLC SSD |
The part numbers for the SSDs include the following items:

- SSD Information Flyer
- Important Notices and Warranty document
Features
The key feature of the Enterprise Capacity drives is storage capacity. With
the equivalent capacity of 13x 300 GB 15K rpm SAS drives, the 3.84 TB 6 Gb SAS
Enterprise Capacity G3HS MLC SSD uses 93% less power, generates less heat, and
can provide up to twice the write performance and up to 11 times the read
performance of the 15K spinning drives it replaces.
With large configurations, the SSD eliminates the need for external JBOD
connections, which saves rack space. With applications that can maintain the
availability of data, a densely configured server reduces the need to install
a new SAN or the need to expand a SAN by installing the storage in the
servers. As SSD capacities increase, NAND costs reduce, and 15,000 SAS HDDs
continue to encounter technology limitations, the economics of deploying
large-scale SSD configurations continue to improve.
With the new 3.5-inch form factor drive, you can now use Enterprise Capacity
SSDs alongside highcapacity HDDs in servers that have 3.5-inch drive bays.
The Enterprise Capacity also includes the following features:
-
2.5-inch and 3.5-inch hot-swap form factors for support on System x and Flex System servers
-
Uses industry-leading 19 nm eMLC NAND technology
-
Cost-effective eMLC 6 Gbps SAS drive with read and write performance fulfills client needs in the enterprise space
-
Achieves endurance values of 3.5 PB total bytes written (TBW)
-
Saves energy, with as little as 7 watt power consumption per drive
-
Eliminates moving parts to reduce potential failure points in the server
-
Supports S.M.A.R.T.
-
FlashGuard technology extends the native endurance of commercial-grade MLC flash:
- Aggregated Flash Management
- Advanced Signal Processing
- Enhanced Error Correction
-
DataGuard technology protects against data corruption and loss:
- Full data path protection
- Flexible Redundant Array of Memory Elements (F.R.A.M.E.) data recovery algorithm
-
EverGuard technology protects data if there is an unplanned power outages by using a thirdgeneration backup power circuit design and high reliability discrete capacitors
Static wear leveling evenly distributes data across the drive -
Bad block management replaces failed blocks with new ones from the spare pool
-
Thermal throttling extends the life of the drive
-
Data retention management ensures the availability and integrity of stored data
-
Minimal write amplification facilitates efficient flash usage and extended lifetime

Warranty
Enterprise Capacity SSDs carry a 1-year, customer-replaceable unit (CRU)
limited warranty. When installed in a supported Lenovo server, these drives
assume the system’s base warranty and any Lenovo Services warranty upgrade.
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.
