This article applies to This article does not apply to This article is not tied to any specific product. Not all product versions are identified in this article.

Symptoms

Notice in the Example labels below for the Std version of the drive the Manufactures part number in the upper right corner of the label "KPM7XVUG960G" is the same for both drives.
However the Dell part number, size, and endurance are different.
The manufacture has configured the Dell drive to our own specific capacity and endurance.

The same is true for the FCoE Initialization Protocol (FIP) versions of the drives as well seen below.
Notice in the Example labels below for FIP's version of the drive the Manufactures part number in the upper right corner of the label "KPM7WVUG960G" is the same.
However the Dell part number, size, and endurance are different.

Here is the same info in table format also notice the Swim lane change as well with the 960 GB drives being (RI) read intensive while the 800 GB versions being (MU) mix use.
Again this is all being changed by the firmware.

081G77 Kioxia PM7 KPM7WVUG960G SDFUZ76DMB91T 800GB SED (FIPS-140) MU 3

Cause

This is being driven by the Manufacture producing a single hard drive and filling Dell's must have both a 960 GB (RI) drive and an 800 GB (MU) drive using a different firmware.

Resolution

There is no resolution, the purpose of this LKB is to inform.
The drives are the higher quality drives filling both functions.
Dells are not using a cheaper drive to do both jobs.
