What is the Nytro 5350 NVMe SSD?
The Seagate® Nytro® 5050 series NVMe solid state drive represents the next generation of enterprise SSDs. Engineered for efficiency, high performance and increased storage density in data centers, Nytro 5050 SSD eliminates performance bottlenecks and significantly improves quality of service (QoS).
Best-in-class performance — PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD doubles the random throughput of the latest SAS SSDs, achieving over ten times the bandwidth of SATA. Blistering 7.4GB/s bandwidth and up to 1.7M IOPS removes data bottlenecks and provides consistent response times.
Boosted capacity in ultra-dense environments — up to 15TB supporting U.2 and U.3 interface, and dual ports support active-active high availability. The Nytro 5350 has the choice between dual or single interface to meet your needs.
Highly optimized — the Nytro 5350 withstands read-intensive workloads, while the Nytro 5550 is built to endure mixed workloads.
Which read-intensive workloads suit the Nytro 5350 at 7.4GB/s?
Seagate lists five best-fit application profiles for the Nytro 5050 series.
Server Virtualization
Quintupled performance over SATA SSDs with 10× more bandwidth and IOPS over previous generations — more computing using minimal space, energy and cost.
OLTP Databases
Low latency and high quality of service deliver improved responsiveness and enhanced user experience for transactional workloads.
Software-Defined Storage
Up to 15TB per drive supporting U.2 and U.3 interfaces, with dual ports for active-active high availability across SDS nodes.
All-Flash Arrays & Caching
Read-intensive optimization at 1 DWPD makes the 5350 the capacity-efficient choice for all-flash arrays, caching and tiering.
