Kioxia KCD8XPUG1T92 CD8P-R & KCMYXVUG3T20 CM7-V PCIe 5.0 SSDs


While there is a growing number of PCIe 5.0 consumer NVMe SSDs available through Internet retailers, when it comes to PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD data center / enterprise grade solid-state drives there aren't as many yet and even for announced ones they have been relatively in short supply.

In preparing for some upcoming Ubuntu 24.04 LTS tests and ahead of next-gen servers arriving, I was recently searching for some new PCIe 5.0 data center solid state drives. When looking out for new PCIe 5.0 data center SSDs for use in my benchmark lab, it was a tough and lengthy search process as most listings for US Internet retailers ended up being out of stock or outright unavailable. The rated power consumption of the KCD8XPUG1T92 is 18 Watts and with the U.3 form factor the heat dissipation is easier than with the M.2 consumer PCIe 5.0 SSDs.
