Lenovo ThinkSystem 2.5″ 5300 3.84TB Mainstream SATA 6Gb Hot Swap SSD, 4XB7A17091

4XB7A17091 (feature code B8J7) is the ThinkSystem 2.5-inch 5300 3.84TB Mainstream SATA 6Gb hot-swap SSD. The 5300 Mainstream series uses Micron 96-layer 3D TLC NAND and is the Lenovo version of the Micron 5300 MAX family. This drive has no SED encryption. The 5300 line succeeds the 5200 line, with the same controller, firmware and interface but a newer NAND generation that brings higher endurance and lower latency. Lenovo has withdrawn the drive from marketing.

At 3.84TB the drive is specified at 3.5 drive writes per day for five years, which is 24,528 TB of total bytes written, while the smaller 5300 capacities from 240GB to 1.92TB are specified at 5.0 DWPD. Random 4 KB performance is 95,000 read IOPS and 34,000 write IOPS, and 128 KB sequential transfers reach 540 MBps read and 520 MBps write. Sequential latency is 250 µs for reads and 200 µs for writes.

Data reliability is better than 1 unrecoverable error in 10^17 bits read, and MTTF is 3,000,000 hours. Typical power draw is 2.5 W when reading and 3.8 W when writing. Non-operating shock tolerance is 1,500 G at 0.5 ms and non-operating vibration is 3.13 GRMS from 5 to 800 Hz. The interface is 6 Gbps SATA with S.M.A.R.T. support, and the drive carries no moving parts.

The same series is also built in a 1.92TB capacity, 4XB7A17090 ThinkSystem 2.5" 5300 1.92TB Mainstream SATA SSD, and further ThinkSystem drives are available under Lenovo SSD.
