4XB0K12423: Lenovo 5100 480 GB Serial ATA III.

Introduction The 5100 Enterprise Entry SATA solid-state drives (SSDs) use Micron NAND flash memory technology with a SATA 6Gbps interface. They provide an affordable solution for read-intensive applications such as boot, web servers, lower data rate operational databases and analytics. The 5100 Series of SATA SSDs is available from Lenovo in two levels of endurance.

The Enterprise Entry SSDs covered in this product guide offer drive write endurance of between 0.5 and 0.9 total drive writes per day (DWPD) whereas the Enterprise Mainstream SSDs covered in LP0634 are more for mixed read/write workloads and offer write endurance of between 2.5 and 5.0 DWPD. Rigorous testing of the 5100 Series SSDs by Lenovo through the ServerProven program assures a high degree of storage subsystem compatibility and reliability. Providing additional peace of mind, these drives are covered under Lenovo warranty.
