Description

This 3.84TB E1.S NVMe SSD is a server drive option for the Cisco UCS C885 M8 range (C885A/C885L), built on the Micron 9550 PRO platform. It is designed for local high-speed data cache and scratch storage in AI training, inference and HPC GPU servers, where dense E1.S drive bays and fast local flash keep accelerators fed.

The drive uses a PCIe Gen5 x4 interface with NVMe 2.0b and Micron G8 TLC NAND. Series performance figures reach up to 14,000 MB/s sequential read and 10,000 MB/s sequential write, with random 4KB performance up to 3,300 KIOPS read and 720 KIOPS write. It is rated at the 1 DWPD endurance class and is the standard (non-SED) 3.84TB variant, distinct from the 15.36TB and 15.36TB FIPS SED versions in the same family.

Enterprise power-loss protection, OCP 2.0 end-to-end data protection, digitally signed firmware and TCG Opal 2.02 support are included. The drive is powered from the host server's E1.S slot, so no separate power supply is needed. Confirm exact C885L server compatibility against the Cisco ordering guide before purchase.

Enquire with XS Network Tech for new or used pricing and availability.

FAQs

Q: Which servers is this drive intended for?
A: It is a drive option for the Cisco UCS C885-series M8 servers (C885A and C885L). Confirm exact C885L compatibility in the Cisco ordering guide before purchase.

Q: Does it need a separate power supply or licence?
A: No. The drive is powered from the host server's E1.S slot over the PCIe Gen5 x4 backplane, and no licence is required.

Q: How does this differ from the 15.36TB versions?
A: This is the 3.84TB, 1 DWPD, non-SED model. The 15.36TB and 15.36TB FIPS SED versions are separate part numbers with higher capacity and, for the SED variant, self-encrypting security.

Q: Is this a self-encrypting drive?
A: No. This is the non-SED model. It supports digitally signed firmware and TCG Opal 2.02, while FIPS-certifiable self-encrypting drives are separate part numbers.

Q: What workloads is it suited to?
A: It is suited to local data cache and scratch storage in AI training, inference and HPC GPU servers, where high sequential throughput and low latency matter.
