Seagate Launches Up to 12.8TB Nytro 5550 and Up to 15.36TB Nytro 5350 NVMe Enterprise-Class 2.5-Inch SSDs With Phison Controller

Seagate Technology Holdings plc announced 2 additions to its Nytro portfolio, the Nytro 5550 SSD and Nytro 5350 SSD.

7mm form factor models

Engineered with Phison technology for high performance, efficiency, and increased storage density in data centers, these products comprise the Nytro 5050 NVMe SSD series. Designed to offer more computing with less energy consumption, they provide a cost-effective solution that eliminates bottlenecks, improves QoS, and delivers high level of data integrity and security for business applications.

Nytro 5350 PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD 7mm and 15mm form factor

The Nytro 5350 PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD doubles the read throughput of the latest SAS SSDs, achieving over 10x the bandwidth of SATA to improve QoS. Designed to give data centers more computing power while reducing TCO, the drive removes data bottlenecks with up to 7.4GB/s bandwidth and up to 195,000 IO/s random write speeds and up to 1.7 million IO/s random read speeds to provide consistent response times. Tuned to increase density and boost capacity in ultra-dense environments, Nytro 5350 brings up to 15.36TB in a 15mm form factor and up to 7.68TB in a 7mm form factor with dual ports, supporting both U.2 and U.3 interfaces for active-active high availability. Designed to take on enterprise workloads, Nytro 5350 delivers 1 DWPD at 2.5 million MTBF for enhanced endurance.

With performance, the Nytro 5550 PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD builds on Nytro 5350 specs with a design for mixed workloads, and random write speeds up to 470,000 IO/s and random read speeds up to 1.7 million IO/s. Designed with high durability to move enterprise data for the long haul, Nytro 5550 delivers 3 DWPD at 2.5 million MTBF for endurance and reliability. Modeling the small form factor and supporting interfaces as the Nytro 5350, this drive brings up to 12.80TB in a 15mm form factor and up to 6.40TB in a 7mm form factor to boost capacity in dense environments.

To help ensure data integrity and help prevent data loss in the event of unexpected power failure, the Nytro 5050 series of drives include power loss data protection, SED TCG security, and a 5-year limited warranty. Compatible with Linux and Microsoft OS, the drives are also packed with end-to-end data protection and low-density parity-check codes for enterprise reliability and data protection from undetected, unintentional corruption. The series features NVMe Management Interface, SMBus Sideband Management, and Life Management for drive monitoring and management without burdening the OS.

Both available this month, the Nytro 5350 and Nytro 5550 NVMe SSDs are data center ready with a full set of enterprise features.
