Dell PowerEdge Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSD Adapter User’s Guide

The PowerEdge Express Flash Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) Solid State Device (SSD) Adapter is a high-performance storage device designed for solutions requiring low latency, high I/O operations per second (IOPS), and enterprise class storage reliability and serviceability. The NVMe PCIe SSDs offer a Multi-Level Cell (MLC) or Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND flash technology with a high-speed PCIe 3.0 compliant interface. The high-speed PCIe 3.0 compliant interface helps improve performance for I/O bound solutions.

NVMe is the standardized, high-performance host controller interface that uses SSD on a PCI Express bus (PCIe SSDs).

NVMe PCIe SSD adapters are available on selected PowerEdge systems from SM1715, PM1725, and PM1725a in varying capacities.
