Description

The Lenovo ThinkSystem Solidigm P5520 3.84TB is a read-intensive enterprise NVMe SSD in a 2.5" U.2 hot-swap form factor, purpose-built for data centre workloads demanding high throughput and low latency. Powered by Intel-developed 144-layer 3D TLC NAND with a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, it delivers up to 6,860 MB/s sequential read, 1,000,000 random read IOPS, and latencies 40% lower than SAS — making it ideal for databases, analytics, and virtualised environments running on ThinkSystem servers.

All drives include Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) technology with TCG Opal 2.01 compliance, enabling instant cryptographic erasure and hardware-based encryption at no performance cost. Hot-swap capability minimises downtime during maintenance, and compatibility is backed by rigorous Lenovo qualification testing for ThinkSystem platforms. VMware vSAN certified and backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 hosts. Available now at iptrading.com.au — competitive prices and local support.

FAQs

Q: Which Lenovo ThinkSystem servers is the Solidigm P5520 3.84TB compatible with?
A: The Solidigm P5520 3.84TB U.2 SSD is qualified and certified for use in Lenovo ThinkSystem servers that support 2.5" U.2 NVMe hot-swap bays. Always verify compatibility using the Lenovo ServerProven tool for your specific server model.

Q: Is this SSD compatible with PCIe 3.0 hosts?
A: Yes. While the drive is natively PCIe 4.0 x4, it is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 host connections, allowing deployment in existing ThinkSystem infrastructure while providing a clear upgrade path.

Q: What encryption features does this drive support?
A: The P5520 includes a Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) with TCG Opal 2.01 SSC compliance on every unit. It supports instant cryptographic erasure for secure decommissioning, auto-locking on removal, and centralised key management via IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager (SKLM).

Q: Is the P5520 certified for VMware vSAN deployments?
A: Yes. The Lenovo ThinkSystem Solidigm P5520 is VMware vSAN certified, making it suitable for hyper-converged infrastructure and virtualised storage environments.

Q: How does this NVMe SSD compare to SAS or SATA SSDs for latency?
A: The P5520 delivers latency approximately 40% lower than SAS SSDs and 60% lower than SATA SSDs, along with significantly higher IOPS and throughput — making it a strong upgrade choice for latency-sensitive workloads.

Q: Can I purchase the Lenovo 4XB7B01868 in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller stocking the Lenovo ThinkSystem Solidigm P5520 3.84TB U.2 NVMe SSD. Contact us for competitive pricing, volume enquiries, and local technical support.
