SSD Kioxia 1,6 TB 2,5 pollici PCI Express 5.0 NVMe CD8P-V

The KIOXIA CD8P-V Series is a mixed-use data center NVMe SSD in a 2.5" form factor designed for scale-out and cloud workloads. The CD8P-V connects via PCIe 5.0 (32 GT/s x4) and uses KIOXIA BiCS FLASH™ generation 5 TLC to provide up to 1.6 TB capacity (other capacities available in the series), sustained random-read performance up to 2,000K IOPS and random-write performance up to 400K IOPS. The drive offers 3 DWPD endurance and delivers a 60–80% sequential read performance improvement compared with the previous PCIe 4.0 generation.

Advantages

The SSD combines PCIe 5.0 bandwidth and generation 5 TLC flash to increase sequential read throughput while maintaining high random IOPS for mixed workloads. Its 2.5" form factor and available capacities up to 12.8 TB let it fit standard server bays while providing data-center-grade endurance rated at 3 DWPD. The drive’s specification supports virtualization, online transaction processing and large-scale cloud or hyperscale environments that require consistent performance.

Suitable for

• Scale-out cloud storage and hyperscale data centers
• Virtualization hosts and virtual machine storage
• Online transaction processing (OLTP) systems
• Big data and IoT ingestion and analytics nodes

How to use

Install the SSD in a compatible 2.5" bay or carrier and connect to a PCIe Gen5-capable host that supports NVMe. Confirm the server firmware and operating system support PCIe 5.0 and the drive’s capacity. Initialize and format the drive in the OS or storage management software according to your deployment (for example, create partitions or use the drive as part of a RAID or software-defined storage pool). Monitor drive health and firmware updates with vendor management tools.

Recommendations

Use the KIOXIA CD8P-V in systems with PCIe 5.0 support to fully benefit from its performance; for mixed and write-intensive workloads, follow your data-center provisioning policies and monitor endurance metrics to plan replacements at or before the rated 3 DWPD threshold.
