Reduce TCO

The D5-P5336 can reduce TCO up to 61% [1] versus TLC SSD + HDD hybrid storage arrays. The D5-P5430 can reduce TCO across a range of legacy configurations, such as all-TLC or hybrid arrays, up to 39%. [2]
Optimize Performance

Compared to widely adopted TLC SSDs, Solidigm D5 Series SSDs deliver equivalent read performance and strong write performance with ample lifetime write endurance for mainstream and read-intensive workloads.
Maximize Density

Imagine storing 6X [3] more data than HDDs and 2X [4] more data than TLC SSDs—all in the same space, at TLC speed. With Solidigm QLC technology, the possibilities are endless.
